Oliver Rowland’s performance in 2025

Oliver Rowland still remains uncatchable on the track with four wins this season, including the latest one at the Tokyo E-Prix.

He also won in Mexico, Jeddah, and Monaco this year. Besides the four wins, he got second podiums in one of the races at the Jeddah double-header, Tokyo double-header, and Monaco double-header.Rowland recently told Formula E in Tokyo, "My mentality now is to keep attacking, to not really change anything. I'm not going to become conservative, because I've seen many sports over the years, and how pressure, thinking about these things or trying to engineer them too much can actually be a downfall.

I'm going to go out there and race just as I have been from the beginning of the season, and hopefully we can keep the results up.

My current goal is to extend to the point where it makes things quite easy at the end [of the season]."Also Read: Shanghai E-Prix 2025: DS celebrates double victory as Maximilian Gunther takes first, Jean-Eric Vergne second in Round 10, Taylor Barnard claims thirdOn the personal front, Rowland is now going to be a father for the second time.
