Formula E driver is sure: “Rowland just as good as Verstappen”

Max Verstappen is seen by many people as one of the best drivers of the moment. Some drivers from other classes are sometimes compared to him. According to Formula E driver Sacha Fenestraz, Oliver Rowland is at the same level as Verstappen.

Fenestraz and Rowland were each other’s teammates last season at the Nissan team in Formula E. Rowland had a very strong season, while Fenestraz had to make do with a spot in the backfield. However, the French driver was impressed by the performance of his teammate Rowland. He thinks that many people see that, but that the general public has not yet noticed.

Fenestraz believes that Rowland would be able to cross swords with the best drivers in the world. However, the Briton does not compete in the premier class, although he could also shine there, according to Rowland. In conversation with Motorsport.com, the French driver points to world champion Verstappen: “Oliver Rowland is easily as good as Verstappen. He is also good friends with Verstappen and this year Verstappen said to him that it is a shame that he is not in Formula 1. 1 races. He thinks he would be overshadowed by Oliver. So people in motorsport know what his potential is.”
