Vergne, Bird and Lotterer were separated by half a second when they made their mandatory pit stops to change into a second car at the end of lap 24. Di Grassi and Buemi's strategy allowed the duo to complete two more laps in first and second. Rosenqvist made a prior pit stop and was being lapped by the top two but did not yield to di Grassi, allowing Buemi to close up but could not overtake him. Mortara led for one lap after conserving the most electrical energy out of any driver as he sought to gain positions after his qualifying performance. After the pit stops, Vergne retained first place and extended his lead over Bird by more than a second. Lotterer remained in third despite his pit stop lasting two seconds longer. Di Grassi demoted Engel to fifth by having a faster pit stop and he held off Engel upon rejoining the circuit. Abt began to duel Buemi for sixth on lap 30. Rosenqvist took ninth from López by moving between him and the turn ten inside wall on that lap. Rosenqvist braked later than Turvey and took eighth from him on the outside at turn one.
