Oliver Rowland races to victory at Tempelhof Airport with opportunistic double overtake to beat Stoffel Vandoorne in Berlin.
Nissan e.dams driver capitalises on coming together between the leaders to land first win in ABB Formula E Race at Home Challenge.
Kevin Siggy secures second Challenge Grid win under immense pressure from Petar Brljak to further extend lead at top of the standings.
STEWARDS SUMMARY

Mental Health Awareness Week
At the end of the race, ROKiT Venturi Racing team principal Susie Wolff joined three-time Indy 500 winner and Formula E commentator Dario Franchitti to discuss their own experiences in motorsport as part of Mental Health Awareness Week in the UK.
Wolff said: “I have huge respect for anyone who is willing to speak about any challenges they are facing because I think we can all have an element of understanding, having all been in a similar situation at some point in our lives. There were times in my career where I can remember being very lonely.
“Motorsport is a team sport, but it is your name on the car and it is up to you to go out there and deliver. I think true happiness does not come from the big successes or failures and you need to appreciate the journey. The journey towards what you are working for, not always looking to the future and waiting for something to happen will make you happy. Be in the moment, live in the moment and enjoy the journey to wherever you are going.”
