Following the second race of the 2018-2019 Formula E season, how do the sport’s 11 full-time teams stack up against one another?
Mahindra Racing earned their first victory of the 2018-2019 Formula E season in the Marrakesh ePrix, as Jerome d’Ambrosio snapped a 30-race win drought by taking advantage of a late incident between BMW i Andretti Motorsport teammates Antonio Felix da Costa and Alexander Sims to earn his first victory since he won the 2016 Mexico City ePrix.
Mahindra Racing’s most recent victory prior to the 31-lap race around the 14-turn, 1.83-mile (2.945-kilometer) Circuit International Automobile Moulay El Hassan temporary street circuit in Marrakesh, Morocco also came at this track, as Felix Rosenqvist won last year’s Marrakesh ePrix driving for the team.
With two races of the 13-race season in the books, the two teams tied atop the wins list are Mahindra Racing and BMW i Andretti Motorsport. Da Costa won the season opener, the Ad Diriyah ePrix, last month.
