Bryan Sellars dominates to win Paris Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY race

Bryan Sellers took victory for a second time this season and is now leading the PRO Championship after a wet and windy Paris Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY race Saturday.
                
Despite torrential rain and hail, TWR TECHEETAH’s Stefan Rzadzinski achieved his best race result this season, converting his qualifying position into a season’s best second place and 15 points. Sérgio Jimenez completed the podium line-up for Jaguar Brazil Racing.

“The Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY is such a difficult series and you really have to be on it to win,” Sellars said. “I started the series a little off the pace, so to be able to take my second win today feels incredible. We experienced tough conditions, but you take a win whenever you can get it because they don’t come very often. The I-PACE was great in the conditions and all focus now turns to Monaco.”

Ahmed Bin Khanen bolstered his championship points tally in Paris, coming through the field cleanly and taking the top PRO-AM podium spot. Fellow PRO-AM competitor, Célia Martin of Viessmann Jaguar eTROPHY Team Germany, achieved her best result of the season in the Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY, finishing second. The French racing driver adds 15 points to her PRO-AM championship in front of her home crowd.

The next Jaguar I-PACE eTROPHY race is in just two weeks’ time on May 11 in Monaco.
