Alex Lynn has seized victory at the E-Prix in London. The Englishman was faster than Nyck de Vries and Mitch Evans who took second and third respectively.
The spectators saw an exciting race with several incidents. De Vries benefited from the front-end collisions involving Oliver Rowland and Stoffel Vandoorne. The Dutchman even took the lead for a while, but was unable to hold on to it. De Vries, who also finished second on Saturday, had to settle for second place again.
Robin Frijns crossed the finish line right behind De Vries, taking fourth place. The Dutch driver thus sees his compatriot, who did good business this weekend, continue to run up the world championship rankings.

Leader Sam Bird had a lesser day. The driver lost many points for the world title, while Antonio Felix da Costa ended the race as a drop out. Number three Jake Dennis came in tenth. Pascal Wehrlein captured fifth place in the final standings.
