Da Costa beats Cassidy to win frantic second Berlin Eprix · RaceFans


Antonio Felix da Costa gained a frantic second race of the weekend on the Berlin Eprix, taking victory forward of Nick Cassidy’s Jaguar.

The Porsche driver pulled away from the chasing pack within the later laps to safe his first victory of the season.

Cassidy overtook Oliver Rowland’s Nissan on the ultimate lap of the race to say second place, with Rowland holding onto the ultimate podium place in third.

Like Saturday’s first race of the weekend, the sphere had been closely bunched up all through the vast majority of the race with a number of lead modifications over the early laps. A Security Automobile interval for a crash involving Maximilian Guenther helped to string out the sphere earlier than a second conflict involving Norman Nato and Sacha Fenestraz bunched the pack up once more.

Da Costa was one among a number of drivers who ran on the entrance of the sphere and exchanged the lead, however as soon as he assumed the lead he by no means let go and held on to win by six tenths of a second from Cassidy. Rowland was two seconds additional again in third to take the ultimate podium place, with Pascal Wehrlein taking fourth within the second Porsche.

Jake Dennis completed in fifth with Mitch Evans taking sixth place. Jehan Daruvala was seventh with Taylor Barnard the main McLaren driver in eighth and stand-in Joel Eriksson placing his Envision in ninth. Jean-Eric Vergne claimed the ultimate level in tenth.

Guenther was the primary retirement from the race, joined by Fenestraz after the Nissan driver was hit by Nato. They had been the one two drivers to fail to complete the race, regardless of a number of drivers struggling harm to their vehicles via the race.

The race sees Cassidy lengthen his championship result in 24 factors over Wehrlein, with Rowland holding third forward of Jake Dennis. The following Method E spherical will happen on the Shanghai Worldwide Circuit in two weekends’ time.
