He claimed victory in Jeddah Part 1, starting from pole and also recording the fastest lap. After clinching the win in
Formula E Championship
Round 3, he'll be looking to replicate that success in Tokyo.
After his Jeddah win, Günther shared a photo of himself with the trophy on Instagram, writing: 'P1!!! What a race. What a day. What a feeling. Started from pole, dropped back to P9, and then fought back to take the win in the final corners, on the final lap. This one means everything! Today is a true testament to the hard work we've put in as a team over the past months, and it's only the beginning. A massive thank you to everyone at @dsperformance and @ds_penske_fe, both here at the track and back at the factory. This win is for all of us.'
However, Gunther couldn't do much in his home city, Monaco, despite the double opportunities in the double header. He summed up his Monaco experience in a post that read: 'Racing on the iconic streets of Monaco is always special. 🇲🇨 After a strong qualifying, we lined up P3 and gave it everything out there today. Unfortunately, we didn't have the race pace and crossed the line in P8. Not the easiest weekend, but still walking away with two points finishes here. Now it's time to reset and focus on Tokyo.'

Ride Along with Sergio Aguero in the GEN3 Evo
/ Jun 22, 2025, 10:06PM IST I just watched Sergio Agüero's onboard lap in the GEN3 Evo during Formula E's 'Evo Sessions' at Miami and wow, it's wild to see a football legend tackling a racecar! Guided by Pascal Wehrlein, you're there in the cockpit as Agüero wrestles the wheel through tight corners and long straights. You hear every shift and rev, and there's this adorable moment when he laughs mid-turn, not perfect, but refreshingly human. It's like watching your mate try something totally outside their comfort zone—and mostly nail it.
