• Sims beats BMW Andretti teammate Max Günther in Diriyah• Günther under investigation for overtaking in safety car period
Alexander Sims took the first Formula E victory of his career after leading a BMW Andretti one-two in the second of two races in Saudi Arabia. The victory also made it a
British double in Diriyah, with Envision Virgin Racing’s Sam Bird winning Friday’s season opener.
Bird was unable to continue the momentum, crashing out with 27 minutes remaining after a tangle with Jaguar’s Mitch Evans, and slipped to third in the overall standings and a point behind the Mercedes driver Stoffel Vandoorne. Sims has 35 points to Vandoorne’s 27.
