Inaugural Jaguar I-PACE etrophy victory for Evans

Simon Evans claimed victory in the first ever Jaguar I-PACE etrophy event, prevailing in a race-long three-way fight for the lead to make history.

Evans, elder brother of Jaguar Formula E ace Mitch, led from start to finish, but had to work hard for his win in Saudi Arabia.

With qualifying having been rained off, the starting order was decided by the free practice session that took place on Friday evening and meant that Evans was on pole.

He led from Bryan Sellers almost throughout, until Sergio Jimenez pulled off a great move on Sellers to take second on the penultimate lap and earn a sniff at putting the pressure on Evans up front, but the Kiwi held on for a landmark win.

Brits Alice Powell and Katherine Legge finished fifth and sixth respectively.
