Nyck De Vries seeks Formula E "consistency" after ruling cost him London podium

Nyck De Vries has called for "consistency" from Formula E after he was hit with a time penalty which cost him a podium in London at the weekend.

The Mercedes-EQ driver finished third on Saturday and Sunday during the weekend's action at the ExCel Centre in the capital. However his joy on Saturday was short lived as he was penalised for moving excessively under braking, according to the stewards, as he looked to fend off Nick Cassidy's late attack.

A five-second penalty demoted him to sixth with Cassidy, Oliver Askew and Mitch Evans all being classified ahead of him. Formula E has not employed the same rigorous braking rules that we see in Formula 1, but that is beginning to shift with De Vries simply asking that they remain consistent.
