Executive Summary

ANALYST: COI RESEARCH

Uniquely in professional sports, this series allowed fans to vote for their favorite driver via social media/app. The winners received a tangible performance advantage: a temporary 5-second power boost (extra kW) during the race. This creates a direct feedback loop between social engagement and sporting outcome.

rate_review Analyst Verdict

"A polarizing but innovative experiment in 'Gamification'. It breaks the 'fourth wall' of sports integrity, allowing popularity to influence performance. While purists dislike it, it successfully drove massive social media engagement for a new sport trying to build a fanbase."

warning The Challenge

As a new motorsport series, the entity needed to differentiate itself from Formula 1 and attract a younger, digital-native demographic. They needed a mechanic that made fans feel like active participants rather than passive viewers.

psychology The Solution

The voting platform aggregates hashtags and app votes. The verified results are sent to the Race Control system. The Electronic Control Unit (ECU) of the winning cars is remotely unlocked to allow a higher power discharge limit for a short window.
