Vergne clinched his first Formula E win in nearly two years on Formula E’s maiden visit to India on Saturday, beating the Jaguar-powered Envision car of Cassidy by just 0.400s after 33 laps of racing.
The Frenchman was at a significant disadvantage to Cassidy in the closing stages of the race, facing an energy deficit of as much as 4% to the Kiwi due to a combination of an inferior powertrain package and having no car in front to provide tow.
