FIM E-Xplorer World Cup will come to the world of sustainable motor racing as the 100% electric off-road motorcycle category where it will combine elements of action, gender equality, urban and rural settings and demanding circuits, drawing a lot of attention to what it can achieve.
A few months ago, everything was being gestated slowly, however, since a few weeks ago, the incorporation of the teams that will be part of the story in the first season has been announced. Precisely, a new one has just been confirmed: Gravity Racing Team.
Gravity will race under the Spanish flag, securing a multi-year contract to compete in the FIM E-Xplorer World Cup as a private team, where it is hoped that the arrival of this team will inspire other top-level drivers and organizations to join motorsports that have technology and electric mobility as pillars.
The Team Manager will be Patricio Tarradas Bultó, while the ownership of the organization is in the hands of Kevin Guyard, who hopes to work together to stand out in the category, offer a great sporting spectacle and contribute to the development of sustainable technology for motorcycles.
Gravity thus joins a lineup of five teams officially announced for the championship, placing its name alongside James Stewart’s SEVEN, Robbie Maddison’s MaddWill, Alan Gardner’s PCR-e Sur Ron Factory Team and Philippe Aresten’s EM Factory team.

A Brand New Participant
Gradually, the grid of the FIM E-Xplorer World Cup is starting to fill up, a category that will have the added bonus of combining races in rural and urban environments, ready to triumph in style within the series segment that advocates technology in the mobility sector and sustainability.
“Valentin (Guyonnet) presented me with the opportunity to be a team owner, and it was a no-brainer! With 15 years in motorsports behind me, I knew we needed something new, global and unisex to conquer the industry,” said Kevin Guyard.
On the other hand, Patricio Tarradas Bultó was happy with this new challenge, highlighting its true importance. “The impact of E-Xplorer goes beyond being a race. The fact that it inspires more women to join the sport is simply incredible,” he said.
Finally, Valentin Guyonnet, CEO and Founder of E-Xplorer, elevated the relevance of having a Spanish organization. “I am delighted to announce the arrival of Gravity! After months of hard work, it is finally happening. Having a Spanish team competing in the FIM E-Xplorer World Cup is a game changer for us, as this is a strategic country that we intend to develop in the coming seasons,” he asserted.
