Jean-Éric Vergne finished a fine fifth after starting 16th on the RomeEPrix grid in what was a difficult day for both the machines and the drivers in the sweltering heat ⬇️
all joined Bird on the list of retirees after being caught up in the aftermath of the incident.
Both DS Penske cars managed to avoid the worst of the wreckage and were able to return to the pitlane as the race was red-flagged to enable the cleanup operation to take place with bodywork strewn across the Italian track. At the restart, the three teams at the top of the constructors’ standings had all lost a car, and there were only 14 competitors left. There were still 17 laps to go of the original 25 and anything was still possible.The two DS Penske cars, which had started at the back of the field, went into attack mode on the same lap. Halfway through the race, Vergne had climbed to fifth.Fenestraz was still in the lead, but he was consuming more energy than his pursuers and eventually had to drop back.
It was one of the highlights of a rather crazy day, with the French driver gaining 11 positions in the race. Stoffel Vandoorne, caught in traffic, finished 11th, just behind Fenestraz, whose early pace had come with a heavy price. With three races remaining in the season, and with the second round in Rome taking place on Sunday in similar conditions, five drivers can still claim the Drivers' title: Cassidy, Dennis, Evans, Wehrlein and Vergne.
