After an incredibly close qualifying session that saw Nick Cassidy take Pole position with Mitch Evans in third place, the two Jaguars controlled the early part of the race following a safety car, ahead of Drivers’ Championship leader Pascal Wehrlein. After Nick took the second of his two Attack Modes by lap 14, Evans led from Wehrlein.
With Nick in third, both Mitch and Wehrlein still needed to take their final attacks and he was therefore in a prime position to take the lead in the closing stage of the race. Unfortunately contact from Porsche’s António Félix Da Costa caused a puncture which effectively ended Nick’s race and his chance of winning the Drivers’ World Championship.
By lap 33, having taken his second Attack Mode after an initial failed attempt, Mitch was in third, behind Rowland and Wehrlein – positions that were held to the finish.
