Robin Frijns was the first of the runners to start with a representative time in the 1m23s, but the times quickly wound down to yesterday's ballpark - with a flurry of runners quickly getting into the 1m22s boundary.
Jake Dennis then broke into the lower bracket with his 1m21.905s after the halfway mark, but Andre Lotterer - set to depart the Porsche Formula E squad at the end of the year - eclipsed the Briton with a 1m21.811s. Wehrlein then joined him in the top two with a 1m21.836s.
