Oliver Rowland recovered from a mid-race scare to secure a second consecutive podium of the season in Formula E’s Mexico City E-Prix.
Reigning Formula E world champion Oliver Rowland attributed the importance of a long full course yellow during the Mexico City E-Prix to helping him stay calm after a frustrating incident on track.
Rowland, driving for Nissan, found himself in the midfield during the race’s first half, conserving energy for a late push to the front.
An incident on Lap 18, where he ended up on the grass after a maneuver by Antonio Felix da Costa, sparked Rowland’s anger and caused him to lose positions and the advantage of his first attack mode.
The subsequent full course yellow, followed by a safety car, allowed Rowland to regain composure and charge through the field to secure a third-place finish.
Despite the setback, Rowland acknowledged his luck in avoiding a race-ending collision and the opportunity the race neutralization provided him to refocus and recover.
