Yesterday we managed to take the win from a very tricky grid slot, and then today, we found ourselves in the same slot again but went for a different tactic, and when I saw a small gap I went for it. For a split second, I regretted it because there was no space, but I managed to get through, and from there, I managed the pace quite well,\u201d said team driver Johan Kristoffersson.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-7426\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/ExtremeE-Round-6-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nThe race saw a new double-header format to make things more exciting. While Rosberg X Racing has secured back-to-back wins, Veloce racing sits first atop the point standings. Rosberg is just four points out of the lead as the season hits the halfway point. Rosberg X Racing won all three of their races. The Accionia Sainz XE team came in second.","excerpt":"<p>Rosberg X Racing brought home another Extreme E win at Round 6 at the Island X Prix in Sardinia, Italy. &hellip;<\/p>","date":"July 10, 2023 21:05","categories":[{"id":25048544,"title":"Electric","slug":"electric"},{"id":25047612,"title":"News","slug":"news"},{"id":25047953,"title":"Rally","slug":"rally"}],"tags":[{"id":25048628,"title":"electric racing","slug":"electric-racing"},{"id":25047824,"title":"extreme e","slug":"extreme-e"},{"id":25048267,"title":"italy","slug":"italy"},{"id":25048080,"title":"Johan Kristophersson","slug":"johan-kristophersson"},{"id":25047957,"title":"rally","slug":"rally"},{"id":25048079,"title":"Rosberg X Racing","slug":"rosberg-x-racing"},{"id":25048266,"title":"sardinia","slug":"sardinia"}]},{"id":5327,"permalink":"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/2022\/07\/11\/extreme-e-hosts-double-header-in-sardinia-italy\/","title":"Extreme E Hosts Double Header in Sardinia, Italy","content":"The postponed Island X Prix event got underway in Sardinia, Italy with a double header.

The ABT CUPRA XE team took off with the lead first off the line with Nasser Al-Attiyah behind the wheel. Team Ganassi\u2019s Sara Price followed closely in the Hummer. Behind Price, Emma Gilmour\u2019s day ended in a crash in her NEOM McLaren Extreme E car. The team would not be able to recover. Upfront, Al-Attiyah was extending his lead. Lance Woolridge managed to claim the second spot after Price spun out. Then in another turn of events, Woolridge went the wrong way on the course. Al-Attiyah kept the chaos behind him, entering the switch zone 20 seconds ahead of the pack. As drivers switched for their second lap, Kyle Leduc made up time for Ganassi, coming in 10 seconds behind Al-Attiyah\u2019s teammate Jutta Kleinschmidt. In another turn of events, at the finish line, ABT CUPRA was penalized for switching to drive mode before the minimum driver switch time and been reached. This moved Ganassi into first place for their first ever Extreme E win.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5333 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IslandXPrix2_RXRAir-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>\r\n\r\nIn the second Island X Prix, Rosberg X Racing was back on top for their second win of the season. The key to their victory was a late overtake of the X44 team on the track. ABT CUPRA suffered another setback as they were disqualified for a safety infringement. The RXR team also scored maximum points for having the quickest combined time in the Continental Traction Challenge. RXR still stands high above the championship points with a total of 80. Gannassi\u2019s Sara Price and Kyle Leduc have 43 total points and a lot of work to do during the rest of the season.\r\n\r\n<img class=\"alignnone wp-image-5334 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/dirtsportsworld.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/07\/IslandXPrix2_RXRPodium-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" \/>","excerpt":"<p>The postponed Island X Prix event got underway in Sardinia, Italy with a double header.
