FAST FACTS

  • Maximilian Guenther wins on the online streets of Hong Kong in the opening round of the ABB Formula E Race at Home Challenge in support of UNICEF
  • BMW i Andretti Motorsport race winner continues strong form shown during the test event in Monaco last weekend to top the driver standings
  • Joshua Rogers snatches victory from under the nose of Petar Brljak with a late lunge on the penultimate lap in the first Challenge Grid race in Hong Kong.

“I am really happy with the win today. It was not an easy race, as I did not manage to start from pole position and the first few corners were really tight. Then I was in second place for the first few laps until Stoffel made a mistake and I could take control of the race and secure the win. When the damage is turned up it is definitely something you need to consider and concentrate not to throw away the race! We are all competitive and want to win, even if it is online.”
