Anthony Hamilton creates a new racing series.
Anthony Hamilton, the father of seven-time Formula 1 champion Lewis Hamilton, has unveiled plans to create a new racing series called HybridV10.
The series will include two divisions — HybridV10 and HybridV8 — with 24 teams in each. Technical regulations are still being finalized, but organizers say participants can expect "real racing" and "quality sound" with moderate entry costs, high safety standards and cost control — teams will use a common equipment pool, a shared simulator and other resources.
Drivers over 20 years old will be eligible to compete if they have finished in a prize-winning position in the season standings of any major racing series, hold a Formula 1 superlicense, or serve as a Formula 1 reserve driver.
A three-day race weekend is proposed — on the first day spectators will be introduced to the cars and technology, the second day will feature the HybridV8 race, and the third day the HybridV10 race.
Anthony Hamilton: "We are at the beginning of creating the series, but by the end of January we will reveal the details and introduce the people involved in this project. I could build it on my own, but I invite those who would like to help shape the future of the new platform."
