Mitch Evans topped the timings at the end of Free Practice Two for the Jaguar Racing team ahead of his teammate Sam Bird. This bodes well for the 12:00 CET (11:00 BST) qualifying session, as they start in Group One.

The session was calm, with drivers trying to complete their practice programs and make up for the lost time from the red flag this morning during Free Practice One. All the drivers set Attack Mode laps at the end of the session, except for Nick Cassidy (Envision Virgin Racing) who narrowly avoided a collision with Norman Nato (ROKiT Venturi Racing) who was going back into the pits. He finished the session in twenty-second, with his teammate Robin Frijns in sixth.

Last year’s Championship winning team DS Techeetah found some pace in the second practice session, with Antonio Felix Da Costa finishing in third and his teammate Jean-Eric Vergne finishing tenth.

Both Andre Lotterer and Pascal Wehrlein were in the top ten at the end of Practice this morning for the TAG Heuer Porsche Formula E team. With their starts in Group three and Group two qualifying respectively, can they qualify in the top six ahead of the race?

The team championship leaders of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship Mercedes-EQ Formula E were eighth and fifteenth. With twenty-three points separating them and Jaguar Racing and the strong pace of the team, could their place be taken by the British team later today in Qualifying and the race?

Qualifying for Round seven of the Formula E Championship starts at 12:00 CET (11:00 BST), with the race at 16:00 CET (15:00 BST).
