Sara Misir to make watersports debut for Team Blue Rising in E1 Series

JAMAICAN motorsport sensation Sara Misir is set to embark on an exciting new chapter in her illustrious career as she joins Team Blue Rising for Season 2 of the E1 Series, the world’s first all-electric race boat championship.

Co-owned by Indian cricket legend Virat Kohli and sports tech entrepreneur Adi K Mishra, Team Blue Rising is part of a star-studded line-up of celebrity-owned teams, including global icons such as Will Smith, Tom Brady, Didier Drogba, and Rafael Nadal.

The E1 Series begins its second season with the first race in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, on January 25, 2025, showcasing cutting edge electric power boats, called the RaceBirds, in an action-packed, eco-conscious format.

Sara Misir will team up with co-pilot John Peeters (USA), a watersport legend boasting over 65 world records and 19 championships. Together, they aim to deliver high-speed excitement while representing Team Blue Rising.

The four-time Jamaican Motorsport Athlete of the Year looks forward to the challenge.

“Joining Team Blue Rising is an incredible opportunity to represent Jamaica in a championship that combines innovation and elite performance. I’m honoured to be part of a team and look forward to this new challenge. It’s another avenue to conquer, and I can’t wait to get started,” said Misir.

Sara Misir’s career is filled with groundbreaking achievements. She represented Jamaica as a junior equestrian champion before switching to motorsports. In 2018 she secured a top 10 finish in the Florida Winter Tour. In 2022 and 2023 she competed in the GT Cup Championships in the UK, and most recently, she made history as the first female MP4 Class Champion in the JRDC series at Dover Raceway.

The 2025 UIM World Championships will span seven legs, culminating in a thrilling finale on November 7 and 8 in Miami.
