Innovation in Motor Sport: TT Zero /Isle of Man, 2012

Interesting overview of the advances in electric motorcycles, and specifically the TT ZERO, by an Isle of Man government official.  The other panelists are an interesting selection – the TT ZERO supplanted the TTXGP, Williams Engineering has been deeply involved with the Formula E series, and Quimera developed an electric race car at about that time.

Courtenay Heading, representing the TT Zero and Isle of Man Government, presents at Investing in Future Transport, 16 August 2012, at City Hall. Also on the panel were Azhar Hussain, CEO and founder of TTXGP, Patrick Head, Co-founder, Williams F1 and Williams Hybrid; and Javier de Rocafort, Quimera Project.
