Sebastien Buemi of Envision Racing has won the Monaco E-Prix for the third time. He was the only driver to have won the Monaco Formula E race twice consecutively, in 2015 and 2017 when he drove for e.dams-Renault, and returned to reassert his dominance in the city on Sunday. Nissan’s Oliver Rowland , who won Round 6 a day before, took the second spot on the podium. Nick Cassidy of Jaguar TCS Racing clinched the third spot after winning the Monaco race in 2023.
Monaco E-Prix Round 7 highlights
It was fortunately not raining like during Qualifying, but the track was damp. Sebastien Buemi was the first Formula E driver to take Attack Mode and used it to reach the fifth position and then moved up the ladder up to the top. The much-awaited victory marks his return to form several years after his last win in New York in the Formula E World Championship Season 5.
Talking to the media after the win, Buemi said, "It's hard to believe, just got to be lucky from time to time, but today we had great pace, great Attack Mode timing, amazing! Three-time Monaco winner, not bad! I mean we've been through a lot, so obviously to win now is something incredible, I think those guys deserve way more, I let them down quite a few times, and now today to win especially here, it's something very special, very thankful to them!"
Oliver Rowland had control of the race in the first half but other drivers started catching up in the latter half. He finally managed to clinch the second spot amid much struggle and competition.
As the race started, Sam Bird, who had crashed at the start of Qualifying, returned to participate in the race but started in the last position. Cupra-Kiro driver David Beckmann suffered a tyre issue and moved off the track but returned to the race later.
