Nyck de Vries was in the Top Five for much of the race but was forced to retire after colliding with another car
Ian James: "It is what we can call a character-building experience for the whole team, which otherwise delivered a strong performance over the weekend."
Stoffel Vandoorne: "After this race, I'm obviously very disappointed. I feel incredibly sorry for the team, as we should have finished in the points on a day like this."
Nyck de Vries: "Unfortunately, my race today ended in the wall. As far as I'm concerned, it was clearly a technical issue that meant I was effectively a passenger in the car."

The Reigning Formula E Champions, Ds Techeetah, Reveals The Design Of Its Future Car
Buoyed by a success with the most prestigious car manufacturers, Formula E will officially become a FIA world championship the next season. Clearly part of a constant process of innovation, the famous electric competition will introduce the Gen2 EVO, a restyled version of the current car. As part of this aerodynamic evolution, DS Automobiles and its partner TECHEETAH, present the design project for their future car.
DS Automobiles and its motorsports department DS Performance had successfully achieved the transition between both generations of Formula E. With an engine increased to 250 kW and a battery of 52 kWh, the 100% electric discipline benefited from a deep transformation between 2018/2019 by allowing drivers to compete in an entire E-Prix without changing cars.
