Jake Dennis is laughing a little, put into a corner by his own earlier answer. It’s not an uncomfortable laugh though: sitting at the top of the standings ahead of the last Formula E weekend of the season, potentially two days away from becoming world champion, why would it be?
Ten weeks ago or so when we spoke in Monaco, he suggested he’d rather have the odd win than ongoing consistency towards the top of the grid, but with no victories. Fast forward six races and he hasn’t finished any lower than fourth in that time, with four straight podium finishes and – crucially – a first-place finish wrapped up in Rome last time out.
