Max Günther going to go for the lunge on the outside against Liverpool and he does!
Here comes Tictum that brings two places in one corner, down into the...
I think there's a last corner lunge coming. Tictum is there. Tictum is right there.
Watch this, coming through eight, now nine. This is the final opportunity into the chicane, Tom.
Can Tictum go for it? He does! He goes through on the outside but left on the burn!
Trying to find his way through! Max Günther takes his seventh Formula E career victory here in Shanghai
but who gets second place on the podium? It's Vern! It's a one-two for Diaz-Pesky!
Oh my God! One-two! Yes!
This is now Oliver Roland's opportunity to challenge for the race lead and challenge for the victory of this one.
Berlein out of attack mode and now it is all down to you, Oliver Roland, to challenge for the lead of this race
and get through ahead of the Tag Heuer Porsche into the chicane. Not close enough.
He's going to have one shot. OK, it's now, Pascal. Defend up, defend up. Go for it.
It's going to be the exit of this corner. Exit of Turn 15 is Oliver's only chance.
Is he going to be able to line it up? He's looking good, he's looking good.
Berlein defends but now is the opportunity with the extra traction and power.
Berlein tries to push Roland to the outside but Roland goes through and into the race lead for Nissan here in Tokyo
to the delight of the crowd in Japan. Oliver Roland is the lead. He comes to the end of attack mode.
Now he's got track position. Can he hold the lead over the remaining five laps of this race?
Lights out. Formula E is go with four-wheel drive traction.
So let's see how Mitch Evans has made up so many places since the early part.
He started last, to remind you, because he didn't get the car to qualify because it just wouldn't run.
So down the outside into Turn 4. Look how many places he...
Sorry, Turn 7. Turn 7, yeah. But that was lovely.
Yellow at Turn 12. That's David Beckmann in the Cupra Kiro who's gone into the wall.
Not for the first time this weekend. Safety car in at the end of this lap.
So, at the moment, six laps to go and it's Da Costa, Berlein that lead.
Roland in attack mode has still got some deployment left here, so it could be Christmas come early for Oliver Roland and for Nissan.
And watch the restart because he can accelerate with the four-wheel drive now.
Watch him go here. We're on board with Roland. Watch when he puts the power down.
Can he out-drag Jake Dennis down towards Turn 1?
This is going to be easy, surely, for him. Green light is on then and we go side by side.
Oliver Roland on the inside of Jake Dennis, down into the first corner.
The Briton up through and into third place. Next target, the two Tag Heuer Porsches.
On the inside, he lunges up underneath Pascal Berlein and goes through into Turn 5.
Roland on board, we ride, and now he's going to have the advantage of traction.
And Da Costa tries everything he can to defend, but Roland is through and into the lead at Turn 12.
Yeah, Roland had a little slide there, actually, at the second part of Portier into the tunnel.
He's riding on board with De Vries, so watch this is the move for the lead coming up.
Out of the tunnel we go then, side by side.
Brogan to the outside against Verne. Can he make it stick this time to the Ibelle chicane?
This is brave. It's bold. It's off onto the escape road and over the kerb. There's no room there.
And now they still run side by side. Here comes Nick de Vries, two places in one corner.
Down into the back. Fantastic. But he runs it wide. He's off the wall on the outside.
And Verne now side by side and making contact with the attachment as well.
He's behind the kerb.
So now he knows he has to try and back out of it. It looks like he's thinking about it.
And then as he's doing that, de Vries comes up the inside to your right.
He didn't actually give the place back. And then de Vries runs wide.
This road all kicked off, though, at the exit of the corner in particular.
Nick de Vries really making hay whilst the sun shines. Two places in one corner.
Dennis looking for the lead on the inside into the right-hander of Turn 12.
Side by side they go. Verlijn's going to have the inside line here.
Dennis is going to try and firm it around the outside. The crowd in the stadium are going to absolutely love this.
Verlijn's a bit wide. Dennis looks for the switchback on the inside.
The door goes firmly shut, though, as Roland goes into attack mode, as well as Antonio Felix da Costa.
And they have changed positions. Dennis now leads.
And no love lost there between Jake Dennis and Pascal Verlo.
We've seen them come to close many times in the last couple of seasons.
And it's Jake Dennis who now leads this race, having started in 7th place on the grid.
Big late lunge of defense there for Edo Mortara down the back straight against Jake Dennis.
Not the first time he's had to deal with a Mahindra making a late chop over.
Thankfully, this one doesn't end in tears.
Out of the chicane we go. Dennis has to fight another day.
Looks for it into Turn 16. Can he make it stick into there?
Mortara, off the inside. That's a lunge. Can he get it stopped?
Yeah, it's fantastic. Jake Dennis moves ahead of Edo Mortara for 9th.
Yeah, that was brave. The frustration was building.
Pound for that one there, wasn't it? Look at Tictum now on Jake Dennis.
Oh, he spins mid-defense round. There's contact at the penultimate corner.
Barnard Hughes, they're also not too far adrift of this one as well. Team radio for Barnard.
Jeff, potentially weak. Bertie.
And that's the problem. I wonder whether Verne's conscious of the fact that even though he's in attack mode,
he's going to have to save a bit of energy for the end of this race.
Problem is, that's going to back up the likes of Barnard and Hughes.
But they could be in the same set of circumstances as well.
I think Barnard was down a little bit on this and Verne trying to use the extra energy.
Team radio here.
Okay, need to make sure we don't overspend too much on the attack, mate.
Slightly down to all other cars.
Yeah, that's the problem there for Verne, isn't it?
He wants to use the attack mode, but he can't.
Look at this. Barnard, two for the price of one.
Down into the chicane.
And Dennis relegated down two positions as well.
So Barnard now through and into second place.
Verne up into the podium positions for DS Penske.
And into third.
Hughes ready to join in the party as well.
Rowland there again, still with Taylor Barnard.
Just cannot shake him off.
And indeed Barnard goes through.
That's probably for the best there from Oliver Rowland.
Just keeps him out of trouble for the time being.
Such the aggressiveness that we've seen from the overtakes of Taylor Barnard.
There is the Costa with Dan Tink to it.
Fans out massively.
Rowland on the inside.
Three into one.
Can they make it work into Turn 7?
Crunch of carbon fiber.
And miraculously, they all managed to make it out relatively unscathed.
Barnard having a look.
Tom's hand is going crazy in the competitive box.
I don't know what he's signaling, but anyway.
I just couldn't believe he was going to make that stick.
It was a hell of a dive to the inside, but now looks to the outside.
Into Turn 7 and 8.
Side by side between Rowland and Barnard.
Looks for the inside line into the next corner.
Natto's there, ready to try and take Amansi as well.
And Barnard goes through and into second.
The new Nissan's now close together.
And here comes Dan Tinctum looking for the inside line
against Norman Natto and gets through and up into fourth place.
Natto now going head to head with Jean-Henri Vergne.
It's a lot of track position race now.
So the benefit from Guemi was really track position.
Not necessarily time, because we see Natto has done the best lap time,
but maybe he doesn't get in as much as track position as Guemi did.
Here's Barnard on the freaks on the outside.
We go, that's brave.
Into Turn 16.
Barnard close to the wall on the inside.
Into the penultimate corner.
Can he get the move done?
He can!
Barnard goes through and into fourth place.
That was a gutsy move from the Briton.
Close to a furl of their energy for the race.
And the furl of their race would be about 12.5 laps or so.
So I think potentially we saw them over-consuming slightly early on,
hence why the pace has dropped off a little bit.
Yeah, it wouldn't surprise me at all there.
So that's why we haven't seen anybody going into attack mode.
The pace has just dropped off a little bit.
They're keeping it pretty steady.
19 laps then to go as Barnard goes for the lead here on Pascal Verlijn.
But here comes the Costa on Verlijn's inside.
The gap's going to open there for Barnard.
That's a lunge down into Turn 2.
Can he make it stick?
He can!
And now Taylor Barnard, the venue where he scored his debut points here 12 months ago,
leads a race in the Neil McLaren.
Gunter's got a little bit more in hand.
Does he have the opportunity though?
Only two shifts to go, Tom.
This is absolutely critical there for Oliver Rowland.
So he's counting down the energy.
Look at the graphic on the left-hand side of your screen.
And this is going to be absolutely nose-to-tail action
between four drivers for the victory in this run.
Is Max Gunter going to go for the lunge on the outside against Oliver Rowland?
He does!
And Gunter goes through and into the lead
in the final couple of corners of this race.
Out of it now.
The DS Penske driver wins here in Jeddah.
It's Max Gunter on top from Oliver Rowland,
Taylor Barnard and Nick de Vries.
What a grandstand finish we've had here in Jeddah.
And ultimately, it was pole position for Gunter.
And it's the race victory at the end of 31 laps.
What a finish in Saudi Arabia.
