🗣️ 'We only lost P3 today, we were never going to beat Mitch and Nick [even] if we got the lap count correct from the start.' Former FormulaE points leader Jake Dennis says he was unable to beat RomeEPrix top two even if he had correct strategy:
“It was never going to look as good as it could have done with what target we had compared with everyone else, and that’s why we ended up going into the lead thinking I can win this race now with the target I had,” said Dennis, who now sits five points behind Cassidy in the standings.
“We only lost P3 today, we were never going to beat Mitch and Nick if we got the lap count correct from the start, they would have obviously just beat me on pure pace. “The pace I was dropping back was quite severe and, by the time I dropped into Vergne’s clutches, I managed to save quite a lot of energy, so my targets were quite a bit higher by the time he caught me, so I was able to hold my own.
“Honestly, no,” said Dennis when asked if he could beat Evans and Cassidy in a straight fight in race two.
