As we inch closer to the inaugural 'Grand Prix Of the Seas', the participating teams have been announced. The teams – HVR Racing, Lloyd Dolphins, Booster Jets, Ultra Sharks, MoneyOnMobile Marlins and an unnamed Team 6 – will battle it out for a $125,000 prize (approximately Rs 83.38 lakh).
As we've previously reported, Indian motorsport heroes Gaurav Gill and C.S. Santosh will represent India at the event. Interestingly, both will be battling each other as Gill takes charge of the Ultra Sharks and C.S. mans the Booster Jets' boat.
Speaking on the team announcements, Anil Singh, managing director, Procam International, said, “We are delighted and privileged to present to you six World Class teams that are built with top-ranked Pilots and Navigators from the world, and our Team Ambassadors for the NEXA P1 Powerboat, Indian Grand Prix of the Seas. The iconic Marine Drive could not have been a better canvas, for us in partnership with P1 Global to launch the first event of a World Series in the global new construct of Powerboat Racing. Procam International is immensely proud to present this new sporting paradigm which will also redefine India’s maritime landscape and spearhead a powerful movement for marine sustainability.”
The action will unfold on March 3, when the P1 Panther powerboats will participate in time trials on a 5.2km circuit to determine their start position for Race 1 on March 4. The top three finishers of Race 1 will be awarded 20, 17 and 15 points, respectively – each boat to finish subsequently will get one less point than the previous. The grid position will be reversed for Race 2, but the scoring scheme will remain the same. The boats with the highest cumulative points from Race 1 and 2 on March 4 will determine the start grid for the finale on March 5.
