The inaugural race of the RaceBird Electric Boat Championship, created by Alejandro Agag (Formula E, Extreme E) and Rodi Basso (former Formula One engineer), has launched in Jeddah. This groundbreaking series is reshaping powerboat racing with sustainable technology and innovative formats. ✅ Disruptive design: The RaceBird features 7-meter carbon foils, crafted by Sophi Horne and Brunello Acampora, enabling clean, electric propulsion with minimal environmental impact. ✅ Spectacle with purpose: Racing close to shore, with low wave production, brings fans closer to the action while preserving delicate ecosystems—Venice (May 12, 2024) is a prime example. ✅ Diverse teams: Mixed-gender crews compete in an exciting format featuring practice sessions, qualifiers, finals, and a thrilling four-boat superfinal.

E1 all electric boat racing series returning to Jeddah to open Season 2 The UIM E1 World Championship, the all electric boat racing series that made its debut on the shores of the Red Sea last February, is returning to Jeddah this January 24 and 25 to open its second exciting season. It will be the first stop of an expanded calendar set to feature seven events across multiple continents. Electric boat racing with 150 kW motors The series is loosely patterned after the on-land Formula 1 and Formula E car events, where the emphasis is on the driver’s capabilities rather than throwing money at technology. Each team has the same one-design boat to work with – the Racebird – a 7 meter (23 ft) foiling hull built by Seabird Technologies and designed by their Founder and Chairman, Sophi Horne. Victory Marine and Mercury Racing provide a 150 kW (200 brake horsepower) electric outboard and Kreisel supplies the 35kWh batteries. High speed charging is done with stations provided by QiOn. The top speed is 90 kmh ( 50 knots / 55 mph), but since the races are also about precision and coordination, Simrad and C-MAP systems ensure navigational accuracy and situational awareness. https://lnkd.in/dKMDjF9A

Team F1 VS Company How can we compare F1 teams with companies? If you like/watch F1 racing, everyone agrees that there are not just racers who are truly superstars, not just 2 racers with 2 Formula 1 racing cars. However, F1 is a team race that carries a crew of -/+ 900 people/team or the equivalent of the crew of a large company. The F1 team manages a budget of 140 million US dollars each racing season which must be accounted for by each of its sponsors. In the race, there are top F1 race teams, mid-table F1 race teams and lower F1 teams. We can see in each F1 team that the company manages its resources truly optimally using the most sophisticated equipment. with an average circuit length of 5 km and a total of 55 laps, everything can be seen, starting from preparing the entire Supply chain team because there is distribution of all logistics from one circuit to another for 24 race series every year throughout the world. In just 36 hours F1 cars were moved from one country to another? F1 Logistics is crazy. They organize the races as efficiently as possible on every continent combined in the race series. that is a very good plan. All racers in each F1 team are professional racers and the best on this earth. but can only good racers win? Of course not because it has to be supported by a racing car that has good performance. Good performance is followed by good technology with detailed attention to the components used, from aerodynamics to speed per second. imagine that in every pit stop changing 4 tires only takes 2.8 seconds and all the KPIs have been clearly determined and people have high dedication and responsibility with their respective responsibilities, all headed by an engineer the top one and must be responsible for 1 turn, it can be done in just 1 minute 23 seconds or even below, which is the standard for a realistic car in F1 racing. All teams have a General Manager as a leader who has the mindset that all races must be won and won and the responsibilities have been specifically divided through precise strategies. The question is, is the F1 team the same as the company? I think they all have goals and mobilize all their resources for the sole purpose of winning every championship or in the company achieving the targets set each year by each company. Hopefully those who don't like F1 can see another perspective on how to manage a company by watching the F1 Circus racing spectacle.

Introducing the Female World Superbike Championship Inspired by Enzo Ferrari's concept of "Garagismo," the Female World Superbike Championship embraces the spirit of innovation and resourcefulness. This pioneering championship is founded on principles that celebrate the ingenuity of smaller teams and their ability to compete at the highest levels of motor racing. The Spirit of Garagismo "Garagismo" refers to the approach of small, passionate teams who, with limited resources but boundless ingenuity, challenged the established giants of racing. It's a philosophy that values swift adaptation, creative engineering, and the audacity to take on the titans of the track. Regulations Overview The regulations of the Female World Superbike Championship are crafted to foster this competitive ethos: - Diversity of Manufacturers: Unlike a single-make series, the championship welcomes various motorcycle brands, allowing riders to choose machines that align with their racing style. - Technical Specifications: All motorcycles must adhere to strict technical and safety specifications, ensuring that races are won by skill and strategy, not merely technological advantage. - Fair Competition: The regulations are designed to maintain a level playing field, where the true test is the rider's ability to harness the machine's potential. This championship is not just about racing; it's a homage to the "Garagismo" spirit—a testament to the belief that passion, innovation, and a competitive drive can triumph on the world stage. 🏍️🏆✨
