Formula E: Oliver Rowland guarantees the pole for race 2


With the evaluation of the rain and a series of confusion, Oliver Rowland is once again distinguished in season 11 of Formula E.




Oliver Rowland is the great name of season 11 of Formula and so far. Leader of the remaining championship, the British of Nissan has 94 points and his last victory is on the streets of Monte Carlo, with race 1 that took place on Saturday (05/03).

The classification began with the conditions of the track that make the dispute even more interesting, Rowland himself escaped the track in group A, but he still managed to recover and go to the duels. In addition to him, Nyck de Vries – who was the second Saturday, also Antonio Félix da Costa and Dan Ticktum.

In group B, Sam Bird ended up beating and causing a red flag 2 minutes from the end of the group stage. This delayed the program in good minutes as they had to renovate the protective barrier.

Sebastián Buemi, Jean Eric Vergne, Stoffel Vandoorne and Maximilian Günther were classified for the duels. The great surprises were Pascal Wehrlein (vice leader of the championship), Jake Dennis (who had climbed the podium on Saturday) and Taylor Barnard (owner of the Polo on Saturday) outside the duels.

In the Knockout phase, we had the following disputes:

Oliver Rowland X Antonio Félix Da Costa

Dan Tickum X Nyck de Vries

Jean Eric Vergne X Stoffel Vandootne

Sebastián Buemi X Maximilian Günther

In the first semifinal between Rowland and Vries, both pilots fled the track, but while the Dutch had escaped first and had taken hold, not imagining that his opponent would also lose, he could not reduce the damage.

The teammates, Vergne and Günther even went on the track with the French for a better moment, but the mistakes of both cyclists have eliminated their laps and the director of the race decreed the end of the classification, without a final dispute, Crown Oliver Rowland as a position of the session pole.

After the strategic and dominant victory on Saturday, the British now seek his second triumph of the weekend and will start from the most privileged position of the grid.

Race 2 takes place at 10 in the morning Brazilia, broadcasting from Bandsports on YouTube Do Esporte to the band and the Grand Prix.
