Pascal Wehrlein has admitted that claiming pole position last weekend at the season-opening Mexico City E-Prix was “a relief” rather
Prior to the first qualifying session of Season 10, there was anticipation surrounding the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E Team and their improved performance. However, it remains uncertain if they have indeed made progress, as only Pascal Wehrlein qualified in the top 12. Wehrlein’s pole position was unexpected, especially considering three Jaguar-powered drivers advanced to the semi-finals. Given the challenging track conditions at Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez, overtaking was nearly impossible, allowing Wehrlein to convert his pole into a victory. Without claiming pole, it is highly unlikely he would have won. Wehrlein acknowledged the importance of their improved qualifying performance and expressed relief, as it was their weak point in the previous season.
