How Cassidy Splashed to Success at Shanghai E-Prix

  • Nick Cassidy won Race 2 of the 2025 Formula E Shanghai E-Prix on June 1, leading every lap on a wet, delayed track.
  • The race was postponed by ninety minutes because of intense rainfall and poor visibility, leading to a safety car start and cautious driving throughout.
  • Starting from pole with a 1:31.305 in Group A, Cassidy quickly pulled away from the field, establishing a gap exceeding 10 seconds while conserving energy more efficiently than his competitors.
  • Both Porsche racers secured podium positions, taking second and third place, while Oliver Rowland improved his grid position from 17th to finish 13th.
  • Cassidy’s win ended a year-long drought and showcased his wet-weather skill amid challenging conditions, though some viewed the result as somewhat hollow due to weather impacts.
