An hour later, Free Practice 2 saw the British driver repeat the feat in style, becoming the first Formula E driver in Monaco to lap below one-minute and 27 seconds.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Who will start first on the grid of the 8th Monaco E-Prix, on Saturday at 3:04pm? Ticktum is now the number 1 favourite, having set his best lap on Saturday morning in 1:26.779, three seconds quicker than last year&#8217;s best qualifying time (1:29.759), by Pascal Wehrlein (TAG Heuer Porsche). A performance made possible in part by the obvious qualities of the new Gen3 Evo single-seater, with all-wheel drive, which was launched for this Season 11.<\/p>\n<p>Wehrlein, the reigning World Champion, has just won in Miami following the penalty inflicted on Norman Nato (Nissan) after the finish. He&#8217;s in the mix this Saturday (2nd in FP1, 7th in FP2), as is last year&#8217;s winner, Kiwi Mitch Evans (Jaguar TCS), 4th in FP2 behind Ticktum, Jake Dennis (Andretti), the 2023 World Champion, and Edoardo Mortara (Mahindra).<\/p>\n<p>In view of Dan Ticktum&#8217;s track record in Formula E (53 E-Prix contested, no win or podium since the 2021\/22 season), his presence at the top of the timesheets, on two occasions, comes as something of a surprise! The 25-year-old Briton, who won the Principality&#8217;s second F2 Sprint Race in 2021, took full advantage of the more seasoned competitors&#8217; lacklustre performances.<\/p>\n<p>The next outing on the track is scheduled from 10:40am, during a very anticipated Qualifying session, planned with several stages for maximum suspense: first, two groups of 11 cars, then a final draw with the Top 8 drivers, from the quarter-finals to the final which will determine the poleman for the 8th Monaco E-Prix, this afternoon at 3:04pm!<\/p>\n<p><strong>Note that you can still buy your tickets at the points of sale around the circuit:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Billetterie ACM pick-up point, 44 Rue Grimaldi<\/li>\n<li>Rue Louis Notari<\/li>\n<li>Direction du Tourisme<\/li>\n<li>Fan Village (Quai Antoine 1er)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It was very early on Saturday morning when the single-seaters of the ABB FIA Formula E World Championship started their Free Practice 1 session, and the one who woke up best was clearly Dan Ticktum (Cupra Kiro).
