Paris : Mahindra Racing recorded their best-ever double points finish in the FIA Formula E Championship after Nick Heidfeld and Felix Rosenqvist came home in third and fourth place in the Paris E Prix here.
German driver Heidfeld picked up where he left off just seven days ago with a solid run to third place, just one position ahead of his Swedish teammate Rosenqvist.
The combined team result on Saturday represents an improvement over last weekend’s Monaco ePrix when the drivers took third and sixth respectively. All four of the team’s M3Electro racecars performed well throughout the 49-lap race around the Les Invalides street circuit, offering superior energy efficiency while matching the pace of the race leaders. After both drivers qualified just shy of the series’ Super Pole shootout session in sixth and seventh, they started the race in fifth and sixth following a ten-place grid penalty.
