ABB FIA Formula E S10 - Misano ePrix

There has just been a proper circuit race in Formula E history as Formula E's 10th-anniversary celebrations continue in Misano for its first real circuit racing.

In the first part, Antonio Felix Da Costa won, but he was disqualified from the race because his throttle damper spring wasn't found in conformity with the regulations. As a result, Oliver Rowland, who finished 2nd, was promoted to 1st place. A first win for Nissan. 3rd placer Jake Dennis is now in 2nd,  and 4th placer Maximilian Gunther's now in 3rd.

In the second part, meanwhile, it's redemption time for Porsche driver Pascal Wehrlein as he puts his misfortunes from the previous race behind him and wins his second race of the season, ahead of Jake Dennis and Nick Cassidy.

After Formula E's first real circuit race, Pascal Wehrlein is in the lead with 89 points, neck-and-neck with Jake Dennis, and Nissan's Oliver Rowland is in 3rd with 80 points.

The next race will be the Monaco ePrix this April 27th.
