Nissan’s Oliver Rowland expressed his delight with his sixth-place finish in the Monaco E-Prix following a disappointing qualifying session. Rowland attributed his 15th place qualifying position to a steering issue and a team error that prevented him from completing an additional lap. Despite these setbacks, Rowland stated that he would have gladly accepted sixth place before the race began. The steering issue was resolved after the team made changes to the car’s rear end, allowing Rowland to make up positions during the race. He described the race as “mega” and praised the team’s ability to race well and secure a strong result. Rowland also mentioned that the Nissan car has performed beyond expectations on various circuits this season, making it difficult to predict future outcomes. He acknowledged that there are areas to improve, particularly in terms of one-lap performance, but expressed confidence in the team’s race pace. Although he is not overly confident about the upcoming races in Berlin and Shanghai, Rowland noted that his lack of confidence did not hinder his success in previous races.
