Over the weekend we & egrave; disputed the double appointment in New York of the Formula E World Championship. At the end of the races on Saturday and Sunday, Sam Bird & egrave; the new leader of the ranking. Let's see the details. The first E-Prix in New York saw the triumph of Maximilian Gunther of the Andretti Autosport team. A very spectacular race with the victory that was achieved; decided in the very last stages of the race from which Nick Cassidy comes out clearly defeated.
The New Zealand driver, in fact, had obtained the pole and was able to maintain the first position for a good part of the race. But with 7 minutes left of the scheduled 45 minutes, Cassidy made a small mistake at the hairpin of Turn 10 leaving room for Jean-Eric Vergne who tried to slip in. Between the two there is It was a slight contact which Maximilian Gunther took advantage of and egrave; so & igrave; managed to move from third to first position in a few moments.
Head position which then & egrave; managed to administer until the end, bringing home the victory. In second place closed Jean- & Eacute; ric Vergne and in third Lucas Di Grassi. Only fourth Nick Cassidy.
RACE TWO
Race two & egrave; it was, however, a triumph of Sam Bird. After obtaining the pole position , the driver was able to lead the entire E-Prix very well, taking a very important victory as it earned him the first position in the world standings. In second place we find Nick Cassidy who had to contend until the end with Antonio Felix Da Costa who then finished in third place. Unlucky race for Mitch Evans who had to slow down suddenly when he was in second position with the finish line very close.
A problem that led the driver to finish only in thirteenth position. A real shame, also because & eacute; with second place, Jaguar would have obtained a prestigious double. Formula E will now stop in London with the double appointment on 24 and 25 July.
