We wrote that Red Bull Racing pilot Sergio Perez took ownership of Team Mexico, which will compete in the UIM E1 World Electric Boat Championship.
Today it was announced that another team will be led by 22-time Grand Slam winner, tennis player Rafael Nadal. Its name has yet to be determined, but it will be the third in a series led by Formula E co-founder Alejandro Agag and former McLaren Applied boss Rody Basso. Another team, the Venice Racing Team, is run by entrepreneur Francesco Pannoli.
Rafael Nadal: “I am delighted to be part of the E1 project, which cares for the environment and will have a positive impact on society as a whole, especially in coastal areas. I love that E1 has a clear mission and is committed to preserving marine ecosystems.”
