LONDON — The Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile and Extreme E have signed a non-binding Memorandum of Understanding setting out a framework to create the first hydrogen off-road racing world championship. This document is the first step in establishing a pathway for the hydrogen series, Extreme H, to become an FIA Championship from its inaugural season in 2025, with the intention that it will become an FIA World Championship from 2026, should the requisite criteria be met. In addition, the pathway outlines that in 2024 Extreme E, currently an FIA International Series, would be recognised as an FIA Championship. Extreme H would join the company of just seven other official FIA World Championships, which includes ABB FIA Formula E World Championship. “Establishing alongside the FIA a world-first hydrogen racing world championship will be a momentous milestone for Extreme E and the new Extreme H series,” said Extreme E founder and CEO Alejandro Agag.
