    Script:

    Lucas di Grassi has been stripped of his Formula E win in Berlin.

    His Audi Sport ABT car was found to have been running with a modified front wing after the race.

    The decision to disqualify him means that Jerome D'Ambrosio is now the winner of the race and Nelson Piquet Jr is now in the championship lead.

    In the race itself, di Grassi took advantage of pole leader Jarno Trulli's early mistake on the second corner to move into first position.

    Trulli never recovered and ended up retiring from the race with two laps to go.

    Di Grassi's car also broke down seconds after he crossed the finish line and he had to be towed back to the pits.

    He is the fourth driver to be disqualified from the final race results and will fall to third in the standings.
