JEAN ERIC-VERGNE won the final race of the Formula E season in New York but it was not enough as Audi won the teams' title by two points.


The Frenchman was crowned champion yesterday and was joined by Audi's Lucas Di Grassi and Daniel Abt on the podium.

Audi and Techeetah were battling it out in Brooklyn for the teams' title as they shared the top spot throughout the race.


But eventually the German powerhouses edged their Chinese-based rivals - ending the season on 264 after initially trailing Techeetah by five points before the race.



Vergne and Di Grassi were racing wheel to wheel, with the latter even bumping into the back of the champion as he fought for first place.


Vergne and his teammate Andre Lotterer were under investigation from the stewards after jumping the start.

Lotterer was hit with a ten second stop-go penalty but Vergne was let off.


Vergne proudly had the colours of the French flag on his spoiler after watching his nation win the World Cup.



Qualifying clashed with the final and Vergne was kept up to date with the score as his mechanics held up boards displaying goals as they went in.

The race was suspended after qualifying due to concerns of a storm nearby, but it went ahead as the track was damp in places after heavy rain.


It was a torrid afternoon for US team Dragon in their home race as both drivers Jose Maria Lopez and Jerome D'Ambrosio retired.


Most notably D'Ambrosio crashed with Luca Felippe after the latter hit Antonio Felix da Costa
