Dennis: Going against Diriyah E-Prix team call "won us the race"
Jake Dennis, the reigning Formula E champion, secured a comprehensive victory in the second race of the season in Saudi Arabia, crossing the finish line 13 seconds ahead of Jean-Eric Vergne. Dennis strategically waited until lap six to activate his first Attack Mode, despite his team’s radio call to do it earlier. This decision allowed him to stay ahead of Mitch Evans and ultimately claim the lead. Dennis praised his team for allowing him to make his own race decisions, stating that their faith in him was one of the team’s strengths. Vergne, on the other hand, admitted that second place was the best he could achieve after consuming too much energy in the opening stages of the race. He had to conserve energy in the latter stages, resulting in the gap between him and Dennis widening.
