Nissan Formula E team thrills fans with victory in Tokyo E-Prix

The Nissan Formula E Team lit up Tokyo with a commanding performance at its home race, taking pole position, a podium finish, and a sensational victory in the 2024 – 2025 ABB FIA Formula E World Championship double-header. Returning to the Japanese capital for Rounds 8 and 9, the Nissan Formula E Team showcased exceptional pace and strategy. Following a rain-affected Saturday where qualifying was cancelled, Oliver Rowland started on pole and secured a second-place finish after a red flag altered the pit strategy. Sunday's race saw dry conditions and even greater success. Rowland once again qualified on pole - his third consecutive pole in Tokyo - and delivered a masterclass in racing and energy management to claim a dramatic victory after executing his Attack Mode strategy to perfection. Teammate Norman Nato qualified strongly again, reaching the Duels, but contact during the race hampered his chances, resulting in a 17th-place finish. These results saw Rowland extend his lead in the Drivers' Championship with four wins and three second-place finishes this season. The Nissan Formula E Team also reclaimed the top spot in the Teams' Standings, while Nissan strengthened its lead in the Manufacturers' Championship. Tommaso Volpe, managing director and team principal, Nissan Formula E Team, said: 'It's such an amazing feeling to perform so well in front of our home fans. To hear the Japanese national anthem while standing on the podium in Tokyo is an incredible moment for everyone in the team, and we hope we made everyone at Nissan proud.' The excitement began ahead of the race with the launch of NISMO Electric Racer Tokyo, a retro-inspired arcade game that brought fans even closer to the action.
