Jean-Éric Vergne wins action-packed race in Rome
- DS TECHEETAH's Jean-Éric Vergne took the 10th win of his #formulae career around the Circuito Cittadino dell'EUR, followed closely behind by Jaguar #racing duo of Sam Bird and Mitch Evans.
- Jaguar #racing achieved their first double podium in #formulae, with the British squad being led to the chequered flag by Bird, who started the race in 10th and Evans in 12th.
- The MINI Electric Pacesetter led the cars off the start line due to mixed conditions on track. Once the pack was released it wasn’t long before Julius Baer Pole Position winner Stoffel Vandoorne (Mercedes-EQ) and André Lotterer (TAG Heuer Porsche #formulae Team) tangled, leaving them both out of contention.
- Vergne and Lucas di Grassi (Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler) enjoyed a game of cat and mouse with the pair continuing to swap positions through Attack Mode activations. On Lap 21, the Brazilian slowed with a technical issue, leaving Stoffel Vandoorne (Mercedes-EQ) to take evasive action and spin into the barriers.
- The Safety Car was deployed and brought the cars across the finish-line, with the podium finishers followed by Robin Frijns (Envision Virgin Racing), Sébastien Buemi (Nissan e.dams), René Rast (Audi Sport ABT Schaeffler), Pascal Wehrlein (TAG Heuer Porsche #formulae Team), Alex Lynn (Mahindra Racing), Maximilian Günther (BMW i Andretti Motorsport) and Nick Cassidy (Envision Virgin Racing).
- #racing actions returns tomorrow, April 11 for Round 4 of the 2020/21 ABB FIA #formulae World Championship - the #rome E-Prix.
