A ship carrying motor-racing cars for international teams including one belonging to Lewis Hamilton has arrived in Falmouth.
The British passenger ship St Helena is Extreme E’s new floating paddock for the organisation’s series of exciting motorsport races in five different remote and often hostile territories around the world.
The new sport is an FIA-sanctioned international off-road racing series that uses spec electric SUVs to race in remote parts of the world, such as the Amazon rainforest or the Arctic.
Motorsports fans will be able to follow the Extreme-E race series when it makes its debut on the BBC and Sky TV next month.
