Extreme E signs three-year broadcast deal with FOX Sports

Extreme H has signed a three-year broadcast deal with FOX Sports ahead of his debut next year.

The championship, formerly known as Extreme E, will become the world’s first motorsport series to feature exclusively hydrogen fuel cell vehicles in 2025. Extreme E has previously shown on FS1 and FS2 and the new deal continues that partnership.

“At FOX, we are committed to delivering innovative, game-changing sports content to our viewers, and Extreme E has been a phenomenal example of that,” said Bill Wanger, FOX Sports EVP, Head of Programming and Planning. “Extending our collaboration to the Extreme H Hydrogen Series is an exciting step as it reflects the future of motorsport and the possibilities of clean energy. We look forward to continuing to share this innovative and purpose-driven sport with fans across the United States.”

Extreme H is currently testing its new Pioneer 25 car, which recently entered production, ahead of its racing debut next year. What the first season of the hydrogen competition will look like is currently wrapping up, with announcements on competition locations expected early in the new year.

“We are excited to continue our incredible partnership with FOX Sports and expand our relationship to include Extreme H,” said Extreme H Managing Director Ali Russell. “Hydrogen is the future of clean mobility, and FS1/FS2 will play a vital role in attracting the next generation of American motorsport fans.

“A special thank you to (FOX Sports President and CEO) Eric Shanks for his continued support of sports innovation. Together we will demonstrate the excitement of the hydrogen race and inspire action for sustainable development and the future of our planet.”
