Following a tough race on Saturday, where both Rowland and fellow driver Sacha Fenestraz missed out on points after incidents and penalties, the team bounced back for Round 16 at the ExCeL London Circuit.

Having qualified ninth, Rowland quickly gained positions, finding himself in fourth place as a chaotic race hotted up.

Second victory

The Brit then took advantage of the leaders needing to take Attack Mode late on, moving into the lead and securing his and the team’s second victory of the year.
Meanwhile, Franco-Argentine Fenestraz battled hard in a tightly-packed midfield, finishing his second season with the squad in 15th.
The results mean the Nissan Formula E Team claimed fourth place in Season 10’s Teams’ Championship. Rowland also took fourth in the Drivers’ Championship, with Fenestraz finishing 17th. Nissan secured third place in the Manufacturers’ Trophy.
Tommaso Volpe, managing director and team principal of the Nissan Formula E Team, said: “What an amazing way to finish the season! After a frustrating race on Saturday, where both drivers were involved in incidents and picked up penalties, we bounced back with an improved set-up and great pace from Oli to take the win.
”Sacha also did a great job protecting his position against our most direct competitors and keeping them behind. To finish fourth in the Teams’ Championship and third in the manufacturers’ standings is a real positive and we can be proud of our performance. It was also great to have Nissan CEO Makoto Uchida with us, which made it even more special!”

Perfect end


Oliver Rowland said: “The perfect end to a fantastic season! I never expected to win on Sunday, I got a great start and picked my moments in a crazy race. Once I got to fourth, I didn’t want to get too involved in the title fight, so I waited and hoped for something to happen, which it eventually did and I managed to pick up the pieces to win the race.”

Sacha Fenestraz added: “It hasn’t been an easy season, but I’ve learned a lot from it and it will make me stronger in the future. A big thanks to the team for all their hard work and I’m looking forward to getting back on track and showing what I can do.”

  • Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd is an Appointed Representative of Automotive Compliance Ltd who is authorised and regulated by the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA No. 497010). Automotive Compliance Ltd’s permissions as a Principal Firm allows Howards Garages (Weston) Ltd to act as a credit broker, not a lender, for the introduction to a limited number of lenders, and to act as an agent on behalf of the insurer for insurance distribution activities only.

    We are a credit broker and not a lender. We can introduce you to a carefully selected panel of lenders, which includes manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent. We act on behalf of the lender for this introduction and not as your agent. We are not impartial, and we are not an independent financial advisor.

    Our approach is to introduce you first to the manufacturer lender linked directly to the particular franchise you are purchasing your vehicle from, who are usually able to offer the best available package for you, taking into account both interest rates and other contributions. If they are unable to make you an offer of finance, we then seek to introduce you to whichever of the other lenders on our panel is able to make the next most suitable offer of finance for you. Our aim is to secure a suitable finance agreement for you that enables you to achieve your financial objectives. If you purchase a vehicle, in the majority of cases, we will receive a commission from your lender for introducing you to them which is either a fixed fee, or a fixed percentage of the amount that you borrow. This may be linked to the vehicle model you purchase.

    Different lenders pay different commissions for such introductions, and manufacturer lenders linked directly to the franchises that we represent may also provide preferential rates to us for the funding of our vehicle stock and also provide financial support for our training and marketing. But any such amounts they and other lenders pay us will not affect the amounts you pay under your finance agreement; however, you will be contributing towards the commission paid to us with the interest collected on your repayments. Before we propose you to a potential lender, we will inform you of the likely amount of commission we will receive and seek your consent to receive this commission. The exact amount of commission that we will receive will be confirmed prior to you signing your finance agreement.
