Reviewing Rowland's Mexico City E-Prix smash 'n' grab

Nissan boss Tommaso Volpe joins host Andrew van de Burgt and chief reporter Sam Smith to analyse Oliver Rowland’s superb smash ‘n’ grab victory at the Autodromo Hermanos Rodriguez in Mexico City E-Prix.

Questions such as would Rowland have caught the Porsches without the intervention of the first safety car and will Nissan mount a serious challenge to Pascal Wehrlein and Antonio Felix da Costa for the title are also dissected with Volpe.

A poor race for Jaguar TCS Racing is mulled over, as are the prospects for the DS Penske team and Envision Racing who had contrasting fortunes in Mexico City. 

New venues such for 2026 and beyond such as Toronto are expanded upon, and could Cape Town and Santiago really return to the calendar?

All this and the latest news and views from a busy paddock are tucked in to as Formula E enters 2025 with its usual vibrant twists.
