Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, Jan 29 (Ians) Pascal Wehrlein of Tag Heuer Porsche Formula E Team steered his 99X Electric GEN3 car to a second win in as many days at the 2023 Core Diriyah E-Prix, once again pipping Avalanche Andretti Formula E Team driver Jake Dennis to the line, while Rene Rast secured a first podium for Neom McLaren in Formula E.
Qualifying in fifth, Wehrlein made things easier on himself ahead of Round 3 under the magical lights of Diriyah, where more than 35,000 fans attended the race weekend events and saw the Middle-Eastern debut for the all new GEN3 car – the world’s fastest, lightest, most powerful and efficient electric race car.
From fifth the German always looked a threat to those ahead. Mitch Evans of Jaguar Tcs Racing had taken the lead from polesitter Jake Hughes of Neom McLaren through the first corner on the opening lap, before Hughes and Rast...

Diriyah, Saudi Arabia, Jan 28 (Ians) Pascal Wehrlein (Tag Heuer Porsche Formula E Team) stormed from ninth to win the first of two races in the 2023 Core Diriyah E-Prix, with standings leader Jake Dennis (Avalanche Andretti Formula E) following home in second after starting in 11th.
Wehrlein looked the quickest on the track as he picked his way through the points-paying positions to the front of the pack. The move for the lead came on Lap 30 at Turn 16, with Sam Bird (Jaguar Tcs Racing) unable to hold back Wehrlein’s 99X Electric Gen3. Both driver and car looked dominant for a second straight race. It was an emotional win for the 28-year-old, who once again credited his team with a monumental amount of work off-track to get things so right on it.

Lewis Hamilton fought a terse battle with Fernando Alonso to take a convincing victory after Sebastian Vettel made an unscheduled exit from the race on the first lap at the Yas Marina circuit today.
Vettel looked confident that he would bring another race victory after his qualifying performance yesterday but fate conspired against him and after flying ahead in his usual style he was pitched unceremoniously from the track as his right rear tyre suddenly exploded. The young German was spun violently across the runoff area with his tyre in shreds and despite managing to limp back to the pits he was clearly unhappy when his engineers told him the damage was to severe to repair.
As Lewis Hamilton took full advantage of his good fortune and set about building up his lead, further down the field the Mercedes Petronas pairing of Michael Schumacher and Nico Rosberg pushed each other...
