For the first time, the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship is racing in the Indian city of Hyderabad as the first-ever Hyderabad ePrix marked the return of world motorsports in India after a decade, and apart from that, it marks the 100th race start for Formula E veteran Antonio Felix Da Costa.
Double overtakes from Sebastien Buemi, double trouble for Jaguar drivers, and Rene Rast hitting Jake Dennis, this is what the first-ever Hyderabad ePrix sums up.

After Hyderabad, Pascal Wehrlein is leading the championship with 68 points, six points ahead of Jake Dennis.
The next race will be another Formula E first, the Cape Town ePrix this February 25th.
