H2O RACING SIGNS COLLABORATION AGREEMENT WITH BRINX TV FOR UIM F1H2O WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP
Tuesday, July 30, 2024 – H2O Racing is pleased to announce a strategic collaboration with Brinx.TV, marking a significant agreement for the UIM F1H2O World Championship.
Effective immediately and extending through the 2025 season, H2O Racing and Brinx.TV will join force to introduce the prestigious Brinx Cup. This accolade will celebrate the ‘best overtake of the year’, enhancing the excitement and competitiveness of the championship. Drivers will be aiming to repeat the stunning final lap pass that gave championship leader Rusty Wyatt his debut victory on Lake Toba in Indonesia back in February.
Following each Grand Prix event, team managers will convene to review and vote on the weekend’s standout overtake. The process will be documented by Brinx.TV, enriching their coverage with exclusive race footage and behind-the-scenes content. At season’s end, the driver with the most votes will be awarded the coveted Brinx Cup.
Brinx.TV, renowned for its dynamic coverage of niche sports and entertainment, was founded by six-time Emmy award winner John Brenkus. Based in the United States, Brinx.TV delivers high-quality live broadcasts, programming, and on-demand videos.
Alpharetta-based Brenkus said: “I am not exaggerating when I say that F1H2O racing is truly one of the most intense competitions on the planet. These powerboats take hairpin turns at 90mph and can hit over 140mph on the straightaways. It’s nuts! We are thrilled to become a part of the sport and to have teams from around the world competing for the Brinx Cup is an honor and a thrill.”
Raimondo di San Germano, general manager of H2O Racing, added: “We are delighted to have reached this exciting partnership agreement with Brinx.TV that will further expand the global reach and interest in the UIM F1H2O World Championship. Brinx.TV is a well-known media company and this collaboration will be far-reaching as our flagship powerboat racing series continues to tread new ground.”
The 2024 UIM F1H2O World Championship continues with round four in Shanghai, scheduled for October 4th-6th.
