London E-Prix: Dennis does double in qualifying for second successive pole

Both Dennis and di Grassi had been evenly matched on lap time during the quarter- and semi-finals, and it looked set to continue across the opening timing loops - Dennis ahead by just 0.012 seconds at the close of the first sector.

Antonio Felix da Costa had been brushed aside by Dennis, who was up by 0.14s in the opening sector, which became a quarter-second by the end of sector two and over three tenths by the conclusion of the lap. Nick Cassidy's first sector was over 0.5s down on da Costa and, although the Kiwi tried to rally over the rest of the lap, the time loss in the opening few corners proved terminal for his semi-final chances. Da Costa thus easily progressed.

Of those knocked out in the quarters, de Vries starts fifth ahead of Buemi, with Cassidy seventh once more and Askew eighth after his tangle with the wall. More surprising was Vandoorne's inability to progress after a heavy Turn 1 lock-up. Sergio Sette Camara could not repeat his Saturday heroics and was dumped out in 10th, with Andre Lotterer uncharacteristically off-colour as slowest of the group.
