Anthony Hamilton has started HybridV10 motorsport racing series in festival format, with 2028/29 the aim to start competition.
HybridV10 is an independent global motorsport festival and racing series built around live, single-seater, competitive racing designed to restore emotion, innovation, and opportunity to the sport in a modern, open, and accessible way. HybridV10 combines high-impact racing with technology, culture, and fan participation, delivered through destination festival events around the world.
Founding Principle – Racing should be authentic, competitive, and accessible. HybridV10 is founded on a simple principle: a return to authentic racing with real sound, genuine competition, open opportunity, and disciplined cost control delivered through clear, transparent structures, free from unnecessary complexity.
To achieve this, HybridV10:
• Standardises cost and safety
• Enables genuine competition
• Preserves sound, spectacle, and identity
• Creates opportunity without excess or exclusion
The festival ecosystem aims to deliver:
- 48 new top-tier professional race seats in modern hybrid single-seater cars – 24 HybridV10 race seats & 24 HybridV8 race seats.
- 24 new team ownership opportunities for individuals, sponsors, and manufacturers.
- Authentic, competitive, flat-out racing using: A naturally aspirated hybrid V10 headline category & A parallel hybrid V8 category.
- A more affordable and inclusive fan experience.
- STEM and structured motorsport education and career pathways.
- A Sim-to-Seat entry route alongside traditional junior racing.
- The Motorsport Draft League (MDL) a merit-based talent ladder.
- Independent, transparent governance through the Hybrid World Commission.
Festival Weekend Format Each HybridV10 event is envisioned as a national motorsport festival weekend:
- Friday – Technology & Innovation Showcase Manufacturers, suppliers, and partners present hybrid, electric, and sustainable-fuel technologies to fans and students.
- Saturday – HybridV8 Race Day A full competitive V8 programme supported by STEM initiatives, apprenticeships, and local cultural celebration.
- Sunday – HybridV10 Headline Race The main event focused on emotion, distinctive engine sound, and high-level racing performance.
Global Calendar – The Eco-Loop HybridV10 is planned as a travelling festival series of approximately 12 events per year, rotating around the world in a repeating continental loop and scheduled so as to avoid clashes with major championships such as Formula 1, where possible: Middle East → Asia → Europe → Africa → Americas → Australia
