DS Penske's Jean-Eric Vergne won Formula E's first race in India on Saturday as Porsche's Pascal Wehrlein extended his championship lead with fourth place in Hyderabad.
The win was Vergne's 11th in Formula E but first in two years and the double champion needed an energy-saving defensive drive to hold off New Zealander Cassidy in the closing laps near the Hussain Sagar lake. New Zealander Mitch Evans started on pole position, with Vergne second, but was shunted out by Jaguar team mate Sam Bird on lap 13 with both retiring.
The fourth round of the 16-race electric championship was the first time in 10 years that a top-tier FIA-sanctioned series had visited India.
