For the first time the P1 SuperStock series goes North, with races on the Humber in sight of the iconic suspension bridge and a finale in the stunning setting of Albert Dock in Liverpool. “Now that we have a much more accessible sport thanks to the introduction of the P1 Panther SuperStock craft, we can take the championship to new waters and reach a wider audience for powerboat racing”, commented P1 Chief Operating Officer Robert Wicks. “The races in Hull and Liverpool are a major step forward in making the sport accessible to a new legion of potential fans.” The eyes of the powerboat racing world will all be on Jersey when the opening P1 SuperStock race meeting of 2011 blasts off in St Aubin’s Bay, with the P1 Panther making its UK competition debut on Saturday and Sunday, 11/12 June. Five weeks later the series moves on to Plymouth (16/17th July) closely followed by a trip to the North East for the race on the Humber based at Hull Marina (30/31st July). In another first, the P1 SuperStock championship will be a major attraction at the British Powerboat Racing Festival in Cowes during August Bank Holiday weekend. Sunday’s event will be run to a mini-endurance format with a special Cowes-Poole-Cowes race. “The race could prove crucial in the outcome of the title fight and crews will have the added challenge of racing over a longer distance than normal”, Wicks added. The televised championship reaches its climax in the setting of Liverpool’s Albert Dock, with the potential for the finale to play out in front of the season’s biggest live quayside audience.
