FIM e-Power splits with TTXGP

The FIM has announced its own electric race series separate from the TTXGP eGrandPrix. FIM e-Power has already put four dates on next year’s calendar and left the option open to schedule more, but no details of the formula or rules have yet been released. TTXGP had been working closely with the FIM to plan next year’s eGrandPrix series. While the eGrandPrix will still go forward, the presence of a competing series organized by international motorcycle racing’s governing body is obviously going to hurt. TTXGP stated, “FIM’s unilateral decision means that our energies are divided and the force diluted. The real victim will be the consumer and the industry which demands change to embrace a valuable opportunity. FIM appears to have no vision which will assist its own industry.”
