“SPEEDVISION” NETWORK AIR’S U.I.M. F1 SERIES FOR 5TH YEAR
MULTIPLE VIEWING MAKES WATCHING EASY IN N. AMERICA!

LAUSANNE, SWITZERLAND: Friday, November 3, 2000 – For the 5th straight year, the U.I.M. F1 World Championship for powerboating is airing on North America’s premiere “speed sports”network SPEEDVISION, giving race fans in both the United States and Canada a chance to watch the premiere boat racing series in the World. For the 2nd straight year the 14 race show schedule will air in the 4th quarter of the calendar year giving race fans a catch to watch the battle for the world championship all the way into early 2001.

“We think this is an ideal time for our many fans in North America to catch all the action, stated U.I.M. promoter Nicolo di San Germano. “It not only gives them chance to see something new and fresh in the racing year, but with our schedule going into November the championship is decided in almost “real” time since the final show is just after the new year.”

The races are being aired once again multiple times during the week so it gives people a great chance to see every race without missing an event. Here is the schedule for the remaining races in the series:
