Nick Cassidy Nabs Citroën Its First E-Prix Win in Mexico City

This race was a great demo of why Formula E is uniquely fun and interesting among racing categories (when it isn’t a shit show in a way that is really fairly normal among racing categories). Cassidy qualified P13. He saved energy and stayed out of trouble, took advantage of some sudden opportunities, and then went for it. Superb drive.

All right, it would be negligent not to point out that Citroën is much closer to a rebrand than a new team that should be getting all warm and fuzzy about out-of-the-gate success, and in fact it might be argued the team had some unfair advantages getting going, but come on, this is a glorious win no matter how you slice it.

Dan Ticktum, though — as is his wont — had a miserable time.
