FULL REPORT: Nick Cassidy won the New York City E-Prix despite ending his race in the wall 💥😱 Find out what happened 👇 NYCEPrix
Amid a sudden burst of heavy rain that scurried south from the Manhattan skyline, the circuit around the Brooklyn Cruise Terminal quickly became saturated with water – creating treacherous conditions and building a puddle on the straight approaching Turn 6.
The New Zealander thus successfully converted from pole, where he set his car up on the starting grid pointing to the inside line in a bid to cover off Vandoorne. But that proved unnecessary as Cassidy launched ahead, as Vandoorne floundered and lost places to di Grassi and Sebastien Buemi off the bat.
Cassidy had over a second on di Grassi amid the drizzle, with Frijns keeping tabs on the pair and looking to pick up any pieces – which ultimately came to pass on the turn of lap 30 when the rain intensified immediately. Edoardo Mortara also aquaplaned and knocked off his right-front wheel fender, but was able to come to a halt just before reaching the wreckage – pulling a 180-degree turn to rejoin behind Frijns.
Di Grassi's later pass on Vandoorne and successful preservation of second from Frijns ensured that the Brazilian secured his best finish of the 2021-22 season, as Frijns put two Envisions on the podium. Buemi, despite also getting caught out in the rain, bagged sixth place ahead of Wehrlein - whose incident with Bird and Dennis will be investigated. Dennis collected eighth place ahead of Bird, while Nyck de Vries completed the top 10 - but had been fourth at the red flag before the results were taken from two laps prior.
