S1-X eSkootr

Developed especially for the series with help from Italian motorsports engineering and lightweight composites company Ycom,[5] the S1-X eSkootr, which all riders will race with, will be able to reach speeds of more than 100 km/h with a lean of greater than 50 degrees.[6] They will include twin 6 kW motors and a battery developed by Williams Advanced Engineering with a capacity of 1.33kWh.[7]

Calendar

For eSC's inaugural season, six rounds were originally announced, with the first in London in May 2022. The championship was scheduled to remain in Europe before finishing in the United States in October.[8]

Before the third planned race in Italy, the remaining races were postponed[9] before it was announced that the season would conclude with a double-header event at Circuit Paul Ricard near Marseille,[10] moving the competition to a purpose-built racing circuit for the first time.

The London race was staged at multi-purpose venue Printworks London in the east of the city.[11]

The inaugural riders' championship was won by Aymard Vernay[12] while Nico Roche Racing won the teams' championship.
