Oliver Rowland finished in fifth position with ten points in Race 1 of the Shanghai E-Prix. He finished 13th in the second race. He currently stands on top of the Driver Standings with 171 points.
Sharing a bunch of pictures from the Shanghai E-Prix on Instagram, Oliver Rowland wrote, 'Not my best weekend. Struggled from the off but managed to bring home some decent points on Saturday. Full focus on Jakarta!'
Rowland's fans came out in support of him in the comments section. A fan wrote, 'You'll be back stronger in Jakarta!! Still some good points on Saturday so well done!'

One more commented, 'With everything in Jakarta, good luck Oli!'
Oliver Rowland's performance in 2025
Oliver Rowland still remains uncatchable on the track with four wins this season, including the latest one at the Tokyo E-Prix.
He also won in Mexico, Jeddah, and Monaco this year. Besides the four wins, he got second podiums in one of the races at the Jeddah double-header, Tokyo double-header, and Monaco double-header.
Rowland recently told Formula E in Tokyo, "My mentality now is to keep attacking, to not really change anything. I'm not going to become conservative, because I've seen many sports over the years, and how pressure, thinking about these things or trying to engineer them too much can actually be a downfall.
I'm going to go out there and race just as I have been from the beginning of the season, and hopefully we can keep the results up.
My current goal is to extend to the point where it makes things quite easy at the end [of the season]."
