Sam Bird
Bird consistently used less energy compared to the median throughout the race, with a very clear peak from laps 11 to 14, which included his second ATTACK MODE activation. This is when he charged from 19th to second, a period that accounted for more than half of the 31 competitive overtakes Bird made in this E-Prix.
The permanent circuit is a familiar stop for American motorsport series such as Indycar, and the layout has a history of providing some close battles. In 1997, the premier American single-seater series saw the closest three-way finish on a road course as Mark Blundell bested Gil de Ferran and Raul Boesel by half a tenth.
It was more of the same as Formula E made its debut here last season, fast paced duels right to the chequered flag with a record number of overtakes around this flowing circuit.
Formula E is heading back to the Portland International Raceway, last season there were overtakes aplenty around this high-speed circuit. Expect more hotly contested, wheel-to-wheel action when all-electric racing returns to Portland, Oregon in 2024.
There's excitement away from the racing action as American singer-songwriter JXDN takes to the Formula E stage in the Allianz Fan Village. Soaring to fame via the social media platform Tik Tok in 2020 with over 9 million followers, he was soon signed by American musician Travis Barker. Expect to hear some of JXDN's top hits including “ANGELS & DEMONS, “Pray” and latest single “WHAT THE HELL”. It’s a performance you won’t want to miss!
Alongside all the action on track, you can expect even more excitement in the Allianz Fan Village - Formula E's immersive fan festival at the heart of every E-Prix. It's a full-day's worth of entertainment, exploration and innovation just waiting for you.
