Formula E Champ Wehrlein and Defeated Rival Dennis Hit Sour Notes After Season Finale

Wehrlein claimed his second Formula E championship after a lap 31 clash sent Dennis into the wall and ended the title fight, officials said.

  • On Sunday in London, Porsche driver Pascal Wehrlein secured his second Formula E championship title after a dramatic final race collision with rival Jake Dennis ended the Andretti driver's championship hopes.
  • Jaguar TCS Racing's Antonio Felix da Costa blocked Wehrlein to aid Mitch Evans, a strategy Wehrlein criticized for "destroying my race" while Evans was already far ahead in the points.
  • Racing into Turn 17 on lap 31 of 35, Wehrlein made contact with Joel Eriksson and Dennis, forcing the Andretti driver into the wall and ending his race and title contention.
  • After the race, a livid Dennis slammed the maneuver as "embarrassing," while race officials handed Wehrlein a three-place grid drop for the Jeddah E-Prix next season, though the championship result stands.
  • Wehrlein, who feels fulfilled by this "very special" second title, prepares for the off-season while Dennis moves his Andretti team to a new Nissan powertrain supply deal for the next season.
