The Renault e.Dams Formula E car has been competitive in the previous year and is expected to be a top performer in season two as well. Sebastian Buemi was the best driver for Renault e.Dams securing fifth fast time in the Super Pole shootout.

Sebastian Buemi drove flawlessly to win the 2015 Punta del Este ePrix. The first half of the race was dominated by Jerome D'Ambrosio, however, during the vehicle change he lost out on time and was dropped down to third place.

Lucas DI Grassi secured the second place at Punta del Este ePrix driving the ABT Schaeffler Audi Sport. He was three seconds slower than Sebastian Buemi and was not capable of challenging for the lead by the end of the race.
