Anthony Hamilton Unveils HybridV10 Global Motorsport Series
Anthony Hamilton, the father of famous Formula 1 racer Lewis Hamilton, has a big idea for a new racing series called HybridV10.
This series will have two parts: a main championship and a supporting one, with up to 24 teams and 48 drivers.
The goal is to make racing more fair and affordable, and to help new people get into the sport.
There will be a special place called the HybridV10 Campus where drivers can train and learn.
Fans will also get to be more involved, like if they think something isn't fair during a race.
The series is planned to start in 2028 or 2029, and they are working on it now.
Anthony Hamilton wants to build this new racing series with the help of fans and others who care about the future of motorsport.
Anthony Hamilton proposes the HybridV10 global motorsport series with two divisions: HybridV10 and HybridV8.
The series aims for cost control, competitive balance, and fan involvement with up to 24 teams and 48 drivers.
A HybridV10 Campus will offer training, education, and career pathways for drivers and staff.
Fans can raise concerns through a 'This Isn’t Right' mechanism during race festivals.
The series is planned to launch in 2028 or 2029, with development continuing through 2026 and testing in 2027.
