PUTRAJAYA: Brazilian Lucas di Grassi does not see himself as the favourite in the Putrajaya race on Saturday – although the Audi machines showed reliability and good pace in the opening round of the Formula E championship in Beijing.

The Brazilian wrote a new chapter by winning the first race two months ago. His team-mate Daniel Abt crossed the line in third place but lost the podium after the German was handed a time penalty for exceeding the battery consumption.
