Tom Brady's Team Clinches Back-to-Back Titles in Electric Boat Racing Championship
In a thrilling finale to the E1 Series' US debut, Tom Brady's team secured their second consecutive title in electric boat racing, capping off an electrifying season that brought Miami's Biscayne Bay to life as a futuristic racing circuit.
The championship, which saw nine teams competing in identical electric boats called RaceBirds, was marked by high-speed hydrofoiling and precision maneuvering. The winning team, piloted by Emma Kimiläinen and Tom Brady himself, trailed behind only one point heading into the final showdown, making their victory all the more impressive.
The series, which debuted in the US this year, is essentially Formula 1 on water, but with a cleaner and more futuristic twist. The boats, powered by electric motors that produce a high-pitched turbine-like sound, accelerate to nearly 50 knots (around 60 mph) while "flying" three feet above the surface.
The championship's sustainability mission was also put to the test, with Team Brady committing to remove over 15 tons of plastic from the ocean for every point scored during the season. The team has partnered with 4ocean to achieve this goal, and plans to double their efforts next year.
Tom Brady, a longtime advocate for environmental causes, was instrumental in bringing his team into the series. When asked about the team's approach, he said, "Good is not good enough. In order to win sports, you need to be great. In order to be great, you have to have the determination and drive every single day."
The E1 Series' US debut was a resounding success, with the event drawing a crowd of yacht-club glamour and racing prestige, all while showcasing silent speed machines instead of roaring engines. The partnership between Team Brady and Bombay Sapphire, the series' first-ever spirits partner, added to the festive atmosphere, with bartenders mixing up zesty signature cocktails throughout the weekend.
As for Agag's plans for world domination, it seems he's already plotting his next move. During the Q&A session, he mentioned looking at potential new locations, including New York and San Francisco, as well as exploring a cool race in Lake Tahoe. With Brady's team cementing their place in the series, it's clear that this electric armada is here to stay.
"It's more like flying, to be honest," said Emma Kimiläinen, who was also instrumental in her team's victory. "You have to watch it happen." And indeed, Miami watched as Brady's team took the checkered flag, with Will Smith's champagne shower confirming what everyone suspected: this electric boat racing championship is a force to be reckoned with.

15 tons of plastic removed from oceans already?! that's wild, i'm so inspired by him & team brady's commitment to sustainability 
we need more ppl like them making a difference in our world 
. I mean, it's dope that they're promoting sustainability by removing plastic from the ocean for every point scored - that's a solid move 
. But, I gotta say, 15 tons of plastic is still a lot to tackle, especially if they aim to double their efforts next year 
. I also wonder if the electric motors are as eco-friendly as they seem 
. Still, it's awesome to see Miami's Biscayne Bay transformed into a futuristic racing circuit - that's some innovative stuff 
! Tom Brady's dedication to environmental causes is inspiring, but let's not get too caught up in the hype just yet 
. Bring on the competition next year and see if Agag can really make good on his plans for world domination 
they're like total rockstars on the water!! i love how sustainable their approach is too, removing tons of plastic from the ocean is such a great move 
. It's refreshing to see a sports figure using their platform to drive positive change.
. With Tom Brady's involvement, it's clear that this series is more than just a novelty – it's a movement towards cleaner and more eco-friendly sports 
.
. The Lake Tahoe leg sounds intriguing as well! Can't wait to see what's in store for this electric armada 
They're doing their part for sustainability, which is awesome.
. She said it felt like she was "flying" on the water, but I don't know if I could handle the pressure of racing at 50 knots per hour! 
I'm just glad I got to watch from the comfort of my couch.
. Either way, it's clear that electric boat racing is here to stay and I'm excited to see how it evolves! 
And I gotta give it up for Emma Kimiläinen and Tom Brady, they seem like a pretty cool team. But what about Agag's plans for world domination? Like, is he actually serious about taking over the world with this electric boat racing championship or is that just some marketing hype?
