Shanghai E-Prix Altered Amid Rain Forecast: Adapting to the Elements

Due to heavy rain threatening the second Formula E race of the weekend, the Shanghai E-Prix schedule for Sunday is being changed.

Maximilian Guenther secured his second victory for DS Penske in an eventful race on Saturday, making it a 1-2 finish for the team with Jean-Eric Vergne.

Sunday’s forecast predicts heavy rain across the municipality, prompting the schedule adjustments.

Practice and qualifying have been rescheduled an hour earlier, with the race now set to start at 13:00 local time.

If rain affects FP3 and qualifying, Saturday’s results will determine the grid lineup.

Drivers have expressed dissatisfaction with the Hankook compound’s performance in wet conditions, calling for the introduction of a dedicated wet-weather tire.
