The Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA) has reached an agreement to licence the commercial rights of the FIA Formula E Championship to a consortium of international investors, Formula E Holdings Ltd (FEH).
Formula E is a new FIA championship featuring Formula cars powered exclusively by electric energy. It represents a vision for the future of the motor industry over the coming decades.
FEH, the new promoter, has as anchor investor London-based entrepreneur Enrique Bañuelos, and as CEO and shareholder former MEP and racing team owner Alejandro Agag, who has a long experience in the motor sport business. Also associated with the project are Lord Drayson, Managing Partner of Drayson Racing Technologies, and Eric Barbaroux, Chairman of the French electric automotive company "Electric Formula".
Demonstration runs of the Formula E cars will start in 2013, followed by the championship in 2014 with an objective of 10 teams and 20 drivers participating in the competition. The races will be ideally staged in the heart of the world’s leading cities, around their main landmarks.
Jean Todt, President of the FIA said:
"I would like to thank all the parties involved. This new competition at the heart of major cities is certain to attract a new audience. We are pleased with this agreement with Formula E Holdings as they bring a very strong experience in motor sport. This spectacular series will offer both entertainment and a new opportunity to share the FIA values and objectives of clean energy, mobility and sustainability with a wider and younger audience as well."
Alejandro Agag, CEO of FEH said:
"We are very pleased with the agreement reached with FIA. We see this as a great opportunity to create a new and exciting spectacle mixing racing, clean energy and sustainability, looking to the future. We expect this Championship to become the framework for research and development around the electric car, a key element for the future of our cities."
Professor Burkhard Goeschel, President of the FIA Electric and New Energies Championships Commission, said:
“Formula E will be a milestone for the future of motorsports, driven by the FIA. It follows the global megatrends of our world like sustainability, the growth of the megacities and the digital world of connectivity. I would like to say thanks to all partners, who supported us in creating this new project and also to the partners who will accompany us to a successful launch of Formula E.”
The series will be open to any cars sanctioned as Formula E by the FIA. The consortium will ensure that a Formula E Car, based on the Formulec EF 01 prototype already in operation, is available for those competing teams willing to race with it.
Para el que no quiera leer esto se lo resumo... (aunque lo e explicado en SafetyCast)... la Formula E es una nueva competicion Paralela a la Formula 1... pero que no tiene nada que ver con ella... Se trata de una serie de carreras con F1 completamente electricos que arrancara en 2014... y que se realizara por el centro de ciudades (solo circuitos urbanos)
Podran competir 10 equipos y 20 pilotos y tendran un año de pruebas... 2013... en la Actualidad hay un prototipo a disposicion de quien quiera probarlo y estudiarlo llamado formulec EF 01 fabricado por una empresa francesa.
Para la competicion se proporcionaria un chasis monomarca a todos los equipos y a partir de ahi cada equipo haria lo k kisiese con el...
El objetivo es evolucionar el mundo de la competicion, sin afectar a la Formula 1 actual.[/color]
