Overview
- Nick Cassidy surged from P13 using an unconventional 6+2-minute Attack Mode split and superior energy management to seal the win.
- Edoardo Mortara finished second for Mahindra with Oliver Rowland third after a late charge compressed the lead pack.
- Qualifying drama reshuffled the grid when Taylor Barnard lost pole for track limits, promoting Sébastien Buemi, who then ran wide at Turn 1 and later pitted with a puncture.
- A lap-17 stoppage for Nyck de Vries triggered a full-course yellow and safety car that reset energy targets and shaped the closing laps.
- The result moves Cassidy to the championship lead on 40 points ahead of Jake Dennis (36) and Rowland (34), with Round 3 in Miami on January 31.
