Jaguar's James Calado and Mahindra's Jerome D'Ambrosio have both begun using their first batch of attack modes.

Nyck de Vries has been given a drive through penalty for over power during regeneration. No pit stops in Formula E, so that's a shame for Mercedes.

"Ok Nyck... let's take it now. Box box" says his race engineer.

Andre Lotterer is under investigation for the leaving the track, as is Nyck de Vries.

A clean first lap, Da Costa retains his lead, and both Jaguar drivers James Calado and Mitch Evans have made up two places to P8 and P18th respectively.

45 minutes plus one lap.

This is how the grid shapes up. Antonio Felix da Costa and Max Gunther are on the front row after their qualifying laps were separated by 0.069 sec.

Formula E driver Mitch Evans says not getting to Formula 1 will haunt him for the rest of his life.

Evans, 25, who will try to protect his championship lead in the Marrakesh E-Prix on Saturday, said the journey to F1 is "brutal".

He told BBC Sport: "It was tough. I worked so hard and got so close, but Formula E was starting to grow and Jaguar gave me a lifeline.

"F1 is brutal - I've beaten a lot of the guys in the [F1] championship."

Here's a reminder of Mitch Evans' victory in the chaotic Mexico E-Prix last time out two weeks ago, today he starts from the back of the grid, and his one-point championship lead is under threat.

Audi team boss Allan McNish, sheds some light on Jaguar's problem of striking the balance between getting the track advantage and managing to cross the line in time to set a lap time.

Do those final few seconds in the pit matter in qualifying? "Yes and that's a simple fact" he said.

"We were talking about how difficult the grid is at this moment in time you can't leave anything on the table at all.

"We are looking at the absolute details the tenths and millimeters and specifications on the car and the timings to get out - it's very clear the last car has got the best track advantage and we saw that through the course of the season - up to two percent between the first and the last car and we can't give away 0.1 of a percent let alone two percent and that was ultimately what they were going for and it cost them on this occasion."

Two British female drivers are testing for Formula E teams this weekend. They will both drive in the all-female W Series again this year, and they are both race winners from the inaugural season last year.

Jamie Chadwick will be driving for Panasonic Jaguar, and Alice Powell for Envision Virgin in the test tomorrow.

A very unhappy Mitch Evans spoke to Nicki Shields after his qualifying nightmare.

He said: "We need to look into it obviously, to be honest I thought I did cross the line before the chequered flag.

"I thought I had margin so it's a bit of a surprise and obviously I'm furious. My lap time was a 1:17.309 so I should be clear. We need to look into it but in that situation we shouldn't be making these mistakes."

What can he do from the back of the grid?

"We'll have to wait and see."

Here's everything you need to know about the cars, as well as Attack Mode and Fanboost for drivers to get the extra kilowatts of energy to boost performance.

Caspar Battam: #bbcformulae How does qualifying work? When I watched on the BBC sport app there where just 6 cars going 1 at a time? What's all that about?

Qualifying works in groups, four groups of drivers will go out individually and try and set their fastest laptime, and the quickest ones will go through to superpole for one more lap to battle it out for pole position.
