[2] Jean-Éric Vergne, Salvador Duran and Antonio Garcia were brought in to replace Franck Montagny, Katherine Legge and Ho-Pin Tung respectively.

Green flags were waved on the sixth lap, but the race was soon neutralized again when Da Costa had to retire on track.

On the twentieth lap, Heidfeld was leading the race, but received a drive-through penalty for exceeding the maximum power usage.

A fourth safety car was called on lap 27 when Matthew Brabham crashed exactly like Sarrazin did earlier.

Further back, Heidfeld used his FanBoost and managed to take tenth position, and with that a championship point, by beating Antonio Garcia to the line by just three hundreds of a second.
