4th in Formula E
After a distinctly off-colour 2021, Vergne proved it was merely a blip and returned to championship contention in 2022.
The double Formula E champion rivalled Stoffel Vandoorne for consistency in the opening rounds and stood atop the standings at the end of the Rome weekend, but DS Techeetah struggled to find the next level and Vergne failed to find a win.
