In the first race of the Valencia ePrix, in the midst of the wet season, Antonio Felix Da Costa starts smooth, then Andre Lotterrer involved in a collision course with another driver, Maximilian Guenther crashed out of the track, and the dramatic final lap where drivers are nursing their cars through the finish line with a few charge left. At the end of the first race, Mercedes EQ's Nyck de Vries wins while Nico Mueller of Dragon finished 2nd and Mercedes' Stoffel Vandoorne finished 3rd.
In the second race, meanwhile, there's plenty of drama happened with some overtakes, close calls, and collisions to sum this race up, all the way to the big upset in Formula E history where Jake Dennis claimed the first win of his Formula E career while Andre Lotterer finished 2nd for Porsche and Alex Lynn of Mahindra finished 3rd.
After Valencia, Nyck de Vries leads the standings with 57 points while Stoffel Vandoorne's nine points behind de Vries and Sam Bird's at third place with 43 points.
The next race of this season will be at Monaco on the 8th of May, 2021.
