From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The FIA Girls on Track – Rising Stars program was created as a collaboration between the FIA's Women in Motorsports Commission and the Ferrari Driver Academy, in order to support young female drivers.[1] In total there were four editions of the program, from 2020 to 2024.[2]

2023 winner Alba Hurup Larsen

Each test included a training camp and a shootout. Talent scouts narrowed the drivers down to four finalists, and then one winner.[3] From 2021 the drivers were separated into two categories, Junior (12–14) and Senior (14–16).[4]

Maya Weug won the first edition in 2020, and became the first female driver to join the Ferrari Driver Academy.[5] Weug raced in the Italian F4 Championship with the Iron Dames, who partnered with the Rising Stars program in 2021, when Ferrari announced that they would be continuing with the program until 2023.[6]

For rounds 2-6, the format was changed to accommodate the extra entry of Westbrook Racing, which brought the total number of teams up to 9. After qualifying the teams were split into 3 groups of 3, racing against each other in 6 semi-final races. The top team in each group automatically goes to the final, while the fastest of the second finishers also punched a ticket. The next 4 teams compete in the place race, while the 9th place finisher is out after the semi-finals.

Season summary

[edit]

Race 1: Jeddah

[edit]

Team Miami led the qualifying on day 1, earning an extra point in the championship. In the semifinals, Team Brady and Team Rafa topped their respective groups, while Team Miami and Team Blue Rising also qualified for the final. Super Final 1 was led by Team Rafa, followed by Team Miami and Team Brady. In Super Final 2, spray blocked Team Rafa's Cris Lazarraga's view, causing her to cut a corner and take an additional long lap as a penalty. Sam Coleman took the lead of Super Final 2, and clinched the overall final for Team Brady.[32]

Race 2: Venice

[edit]

Team Miami claimed their second consecutive pole position.[33]

Race 3: Puerto Banús

[edit]

Choppy waters at the third event shook up the standings. Team Drogba claimed pole position, while two-time winners Team Brady were eliminated after a power outage in Semifinal 3. Team Blue Rising clinched fourth place overall, but had to withdraw from Super Final 2 after the nose of their craft detached while racing in Super Final 1. The same thing happened to Team Brazil in Super Final 2, while Westbrook Racing stalled mid-race but crossed the finish line in second and picked up an extra point for the fastest lap. Team Miami won their first race, and moved to first in the standings.[34]

Current season

The UIM E1 Series is a UIM-sanctioned international offshore powerboat racing series that uses spec silhouette electric SUVs to race in remote parts of the world, such as the Saudi Arabian desert or the Arctic.[35][36] The series also promotes gender equality in motorsport by mandating that all teams consist of a female and a male driver who share equal driving duties.[37]

The first season began with the E1 Jeddah GP in Saudi Arabia in February 2024.[38]

History

[edit]

Creation

[edit]

The E1 Series began in 2018 as a project led by Formula E and Extreme E founder Alejandro Agag and former driver Gil de Ferran.

Preparations

[edit]

The E1 Series began in 2018 as a project led by Formula E and Extreme E founder Alejandro Agag and former driver Gil de Ferran.[39] The series was presented to the public in January 2019 with an event in London.[40] The announcement took place on board the ship St Helena which was to serve as "floating paddock" of the series, and also introduced Continental as tyre supplier and Brazilian company CBMM as niobium supplier for the vehicle production.[41] Ali Russell was named Chief Marketing Officer, while Red Bull sports executives Kester Wilkinson and Nina Dreier signed on as event and marketing managers.[42]

The first team to commit to the series, Venturi Racing, was announced in May 2019 (although they withdrew again before the first season).[43] A couple of months later, German team Abt Sportsline was the second team to join the series.[44]

In July 2019 a first prototype of the series vehicle, the Odyssey 21, was showcased at the Goodwood Festival of Speed and in December 2019 the provisional calendar for the first season in 2021 was revealed, featuring races in Senegal, Saudi Arabia, Nepal, Greenland and Brazil.[45][46]

In 2020, the series started to attract attention by having Ken Block race the Extreme E car at the last stage of the Dakar Rally in January and in September Formula One world champion Lewis Hamilton announced the creation of his own Extreme E team, called X44.[47][48] Former F1 champion and Hamilton's longtime team-mate and rival, Nico Rosberg also entered his own team into the competition with Rosberg X Racing, as did fellow champion Jenson Button with JBXE; Button also drove the 2021 Desert X-Prix for his team.[49] A six-day drivers' test was held near the Châteaux de Lastours in southern France in late September and early October, featuring among confirmed series drivers some well-known racing drivers like Valtteri Bottas, Sébastien Loeb and Jean-Éric Vergne.[50]

In November 2020, the vehicles were delivered to the teams, who could then apply their liveries and acquaint themselves with the car and its operations. The teams were limited to 100km of private testing.[51] A joint test with eight teams and a race simulation was held at MotorLand Aragón in December.[52]

The St Helena departed from Liverpool on 20 February 2021, carrying equipment and 9 cars for the first race in April and arrived in Jeddah on 14 March.[53][54]

2024 season

[edit]

The inaugural season consists of 9 teams and 18 drivers. It began in February in Jeddah, and is

Race format

[edit]

Teams consist of one female and one male driver, who share equal driving duties. In each session, the team must complete two or four laps (depending on the length of the course), with both team members splitting their driving time in half. The driver switch takes place in a designated "switch zone", where a speed limit and a minimal switch time are enforced for safety reasons.[55]

The format of the Extreme E race weekend evolved over the course of the first three seasons. Under the current format, a weekend is composed of two separate rounds, one on Saturday and the other on Sunday. Racing starts with two qualifying sessions, each consisting of two five-car heats. Then, a pair of official races take place to determine the event winner. Qualifying is designed so that each team competes in two heats, one for each session. A team's finishing position contributes towards the combined qualifying results, based on intermediate points (10, 8, 6, 4 and 2 for each heat). Championship points were awarded for overall qualifying in season one—per the current system, only the winner of a qualifying heat earns a championship point. The qualifying results determine to which race each teams advances: the top five qualifiers progress to the "Grand Final" and the bottom five to the "Redemption Race". The Grand Final decides positions one to five in the final event classification, with the Redemption Race dictating positions six to ten.[56]

Additionally, a "super sector" is defined, where two extra points are awarded to the fastest team through that sector over the event.[57] During a session, one "Hyperdrive" can be used per lap, which provides extra power for four seconds.

Boat

[edit]

The Spark Odyssey 21 electric SUV was unveiled as the series' competition vehicle at Goodwood Festival of Speed on 5 July 2019.[45] The vehicle is manufactured by Spark Racing Technology, the constructors of the Formula E cars, with a battery produced by Williams Advanced Engineering. The car is fitted with a niobium-reinforced steel alloy tubular frame, as well as crash structure and roll cage.[58] It weighs 1,650 kg (3,640 lb), and is capable of 0 to 60 mph in 4.5 seconds, with 400 kW (540 hp) of power.[59]

Piloted the Racebird for the Test Event in Rotterdam in November 2023[10]

Teams and drivers

[edit]

The UIM E1 Pilot Academy was created to train a new generation of racers to compete in the E1 Series. Female and male athletes with experience in motorsport, cycling, Esports, extreme sports and high-speed sports were invited to apply. A total of 34 racers took part in the training in 2023, with 18 being selected to compete in the inaugural season of the series.[9]

The E1 Series regulations require each team to consist of a female and a male driver who share equal driving duties (with a driver swap in the middle of each race).[37]

Race locations

[edit]

Extreme E races in locations already damaged by climate change in order to bring awareness to the problems posed by climate change and have consulted ecological experts to keep the impact of their presence to a minimum.[60] The series maintains a so called "legacy programme" which intends to provide support for social and environmental challenges at the racing locations.[61]

Aurora Media Worldwide and North One Television were selected as host broadcasters, producing live race coverage and a supporting documentary series, combining sport and scientific stories.[62] Academy Award-winning filmmaker Fisher Stevens was hired as the series artistic director to produce the broadcasts. Gil de Ferran said that the "viewers can expect a completely new way of consuming sport, with each episode telling not just the story of a race, but the wider race of awareness and the need to protect these remote and challenging environments being explored by Extreme E."[63][64]

A documentary titled "E1: Learning to Fly", that documented the process from creation to the first race, was released on YouTube on date.

The live broadcast is presented by Andrew Coley and Jennie Gow from a studio in London, and Layla Anna-Lee is the on-site reporter and also presents a 20-episode magazine show called Electric Odyssey.[65]
