Porsche was on top at the start of the Formula E season. Then it had a dip before hitting back in Jakarta. Can it hold its advantage as the title race hots up? 👀
locked out the top two spots in Mexico City and Diriyah, with Wehrlein even taking a rare double win in Saudi Arabia. in Hyderabad and Cape Town respectively, cementing the belief that the Porsche powertrain was the benchmark in FE. After just five races of the season, Porsche was already 40 points clear of its nearest rival in the teams' championship.
Porsche needed to turn things around for the second half of the season, which features seven rapid-fire races in a span of just two months, if it was to remain in the title hunt. And it managed exactly that in Indonesia, with a visibly-improved 99X package allowing Wehrlein to take victory in Jakarta and reinstate Porsche to the top of the drivers' and teams' table.
Wehrlein didn't wait beyond lap four to make a pass on Guenther, whose Maserati was no match to the Porsche in race trim, to move into the lead of the race. For the remainder of the 36-lap contest, Wehrlein did come under serious pressure from Dennis' Andretti - and the British driver even attempted a move into Turn 1 on lap 24. But Wehrlein kept his cool to end a barren run of no podiums stretching back to January.
