Maximilian Guenther said that the DS Penske car “ticked all the boxes” in his stunning victory in the first race of the Formula E Jeddah double-header.
The German driver snatched victory from Nissan’s Oliver Rowland at the final corner on the last lap, securing a hat-trick with pole position and the fastest lap. Despite a history of underwhelming performances, the Franco-American team showcased strong performance to help Guenther secure his first win since Tokyo. Guenther praised the race track and the Pit Boost feature, highlighting the importance of strategy and technological progress in Formula E. As the team gears up for Race 2 without the Pit Boost, they anticipate a different style of racing. The addition of technical expert Phil Charles and the team’s hard work might signal a positive turn for DS Penske Racing. While the team has shown improvements in qualifying and execution, they aim to maintain their momentum in upcoming races. Overall, the team now holds quiet confidence in their ability to compete for victory in future events.
