First there was Formula E, then Extreme E, and now Alejandro Agag is taking electric racing to the water. Is it motorsport? Does that even matter? Andrew van de Burgt reports back from Lake Como and his first taste of the celebrity-heavy E1 series
Lake Como is a popular spot for beautiful people and American tourists to enjoy the attractions of Italy. Meanwhile, E1, the newest form of motorsport from Alejandro Agag, is making a debut on the glacier-formed expanse of freshwater. The electric powerboating series takes place at the Villa d’Este, providing a chic and opulent setting for the races. The races feature unique “racebirds” navigating through buoys on the water, creating an exciting spectacle for the spectators. The diversity of pilots, including track racers, off-roaders, and powerboat racers, adds to the eclectic nature of the competition. Each team in E1 consists of male and female pilots, with their combined times determining the qualifying order, leading to a mix of competitive spirit and gender equality in the sport.
