FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – Jeddah, KSA, 23 January 2026 – Jeddah, Saudi Arabia, January 2026 –Westbrook Racing is pleased to announce the renewal of its partnership with SPARCO for the 2026 UIM E1 World Championship season. Entering a third consecutive year, the partnership reflects a strong foundation of trust, consistency, and shared standards of excellence. The renewed collaboration will officially continue from the season opener in Jeddah.
Under the terms of the agreement, SPARCO will once again equip Westbrook Racing’s pilots, Sara Price and Lucas Ordóñez, with top-level racing equipment. This includes custom-made racing suits, gloves, and helmets developed to meet the highest requirements of safety, performance, and comfort in elite international motorsport.
In addition, the team will benefit from a full SPARCO footwear supply throughout the 2026 season. At track level, the team will wear SPARCO’s dedicated racing footwear, while travel and off-track duties will be covered by SPARCO’s lifestyle range—ensuring continuity in performance, comfort, and professional presentation across all environments.
Founded in Italy and recognized worldwide, SPARCO is a global reference in motorsport equipment, with more than 45 years of racing heritage. The brand is known for its engineering-driven approach, safety leadership, and long-standing relationships with professional teams and drivers across multiple racing disciplines.
Yan Lefort, Commercial & Marketing Director of Westbrook Racing, commented: “Renewing our partnership with SPARCO for a third year is something we value greatly. What we have built together goes far beyond a conventional supplier agreement. SPARCO’s support is constant, personal, and deeply embedded within the team. It feels like a family relationship, and that human connection brings far more value than equipment alone. Their trust and commitment play an important role in how we operate and perform as a team.”
Diego Lamura, CMO of SPARCO, added: “Reaching a third year with Westbrook Racing is a clear sign of the strength of our collaboration. Westbrook Racing embodies professionalism, ambition, and innovation—values that strongly resonate with SPARCO. We are proud to continue equipping Sara Price and Lucas Ordóñez with high-performance racing gear and to remain part of a project that represents the future of electric racing within the UIM E1 World Championship.”
The renewal further reinforces Westbrook Racing’s status as one of the most structured and professional teams competing in the UIM E1 World Championship.
As the 2026 season begins in Jeddah, Westbrook Racing and SPARCO look forward to continuing a trusted collaboration built on performance, people, and shared ambition.
