Hrag Sarkissian, eSkootr Championship™ co-founder and CEO, said: “eSC will be a unique form of racing, and we want to give fans as much information as possible about what our riders are experiencing on track. We have partnered with PRELOADED to help us take the fan into the heart of the action through a second screen experience that will allow viewers to interact with the main broadcast by accessing stats in real-time about each rider’s performance, and engage with our online text commentary.
“Sports fans are eager to know more about the performance levels of elite athletes, and our AR experience app will open up access to rider and team data like never before in live sport.”
Phil Stuart, Creative Director at PRELOADED, added: “We’re so excited to be working with eSC on the launch of this incredible new sport. Together we are pioneering new audience experiences which could transform the future of live events, underpinned by the latest in immersive tech and hardware.”
eSC is a brand-new category of sport with the championship’s first races taking place in 2022. It will be accessible to all and promote the use of sustainable micromobility transportation in urban areas. Riders will race the specially designed S1-X electric scooter, which has been developed by YCOM, is powered by a Williams Advanced Engineering battery, and can reach speeds of over 100 km/h, on specially designed inner-city circuits.
