Nissan driver Oliver Rowland was among the favourites at the recently held Tokyo E-Prix, and it was a heartwarming sight to see him lifting the winner’s trophy with his daughter sharing the podium as he fulfilled the expectations of his fans on Nissan’s home soil. After securing the number two spot on the podium in Round 8, he went on to win the Round 9 race—his fourth victory of the 2025 Formula E World Championship . Sharing a post on his Instagram Stories, Rowland simply wrote, “What a weekend.”
Oliver Rowland takes over Japan
Oliver Rowland has now won the Mexico E-Prix, Jeddah E-Prix Part 2, Monaco E-Prix Part 1, and Tokyo E-Prix Part 2. He currently sits at the top of the Formula E Driver Standings with 161 points. He holds a commanding lead, with Pascal Wehrlein in second place at 84 points.
Oliver Rowland continues to share adorable pictures of his daughter on Instagram Stories as they explore Japan together. His daughter also accompanied him in the paddock when the Qualifying session was delayed due to rain. Fans were charmed by her cuteness, especially when she asked him to show his car.
Speaking about his strategy after winning the Tokyo race, Rowland said, “No words! I was not a master of strategy in the first half of the race, I was pretty disappointed in myself. But I figured out that everybody would kind of undercut me so I thought: ‘I’ve got six minutes, I’ll undercut them’ and in the end it worked. I knew they would all react. I just had to make the progress on the first lap so it paid off today, but I was a bit lucky.”
Sharing his plan for the road ahead, he added, “I’ve always said that in Tokyo and Shanghai I need to keep pushing to extend the Championship lead. Going into Shanghai I’ll have the same approach this year and then maybe after that we can start to think about the lead we’ve got.”
