DS Virgin Racing rounded out their best ever season during today’s final Formula E race in New York City, securing third place in both the teams’ and the drivers’ championship. British driver Sam Bird picked up another points finish with 10th place but finished just one point adrift of rival Lucas di Grassi to narrowly miss out on the championship runners-up spot. The final race of the season – the championship’s 45th since beginning in 2014 – took place in Brooklyn’s Red Hook district, with drivers this time facing tricky, wet conditions in the morning sessions compared to yesterday’s heat wave. Yet come race time, the grey clouds had been replaced with blue sky, meaning the series has incredibly still yet to experience a wet race in four seasons.
