Overview
- Mitch Evans mastered tricky wet conditions at Tempelhof to convert pole into a dominant Jaguar victory in the first Berlin E-Prix.
- Oliver Rowland’s late spin into Stoffel Vandoorne on lap 33 caused his first retirement of the season and ended his chance to clinch the title on Saturday.
- Pascal Wehrlein capitalised on Rowland’s exit to finish second and claim fastest lap, trimming the championship margin from 69 to 50 points.
- FIA stewards assessed Rowland’s collision as his error and handed him a five-place grid drop for Sunday’s second race of the Berlin double-header.
- With 87 points still up for grabs across race two and the final London rounds, the drivers’ championship battle will continue beyond Berlin.
