ROKiT Venturi Racing Edoardo Mortara takes round 9 win and ABB FIA FORMULA E WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP lead in Puebla

FAST FACTS

- ROKiT Venturi Racing’s Edo Mortara went top of the ABB FIA #formulae World Championship after winning the second CBMM Niobium Puebla E-Prix

- Mortara went two better than his third-placed finish on the previous day with a second career E-Prix victory to complete a stunning weekend for the Monaco based team as fans made their return to Formula E’s grandstands

- TAG Heuer Porsche’s Pascal Wehrlein secured a second-placed finish on- track but was later penalised by the addition of five seconds to his race time for improper use of FANBOOST, which saw him demoted to fourth spot

- Nick Cassidy achieved a maiden podium following a herculean effort by the Envision Virgin #racing team to rebuild his car late into the night – their rewards, second place following that Wehrlein penalty

- Nissan e.dams’ Oliver Rowland led away from Julius Baer Pole Position though contact with a wall late on in the contest compromised his race but the Brit still sealed silverware, coming home a net third

- The result sees Mortara become the eighth different winner in nine races and leave Mexico with a 10-point lead at the summit of the Drivers’ World Championship with Mercedes-EQ leading the Teams' World Championship by three points

- Next up, The ABB FIA #formulae World Championship heads to New York City for Rounds 10 and 11 on July 10 and July 11
