In the halls of the headquarters of the International Motorsport Commission, Théo Beauvilliers sat and waited to be called into an important meeting. He was the Chief Operating Officer of Aventure Automotive Group, but most importantly on the board of the Automotive Club of Sil Dorsett as it's functional lead. He was in charge of the coordination between the IMC and the ACSD for every sanctioned and supervised event.
Princess Claidie was also there, with her and her staff a few minutes behind walking down the hallway. The meeting was as much hers as it was Théo's as it concerned her pet project, the Electric Division of the Silien Racing Series. She didn't call the meeting though, and neither did Théo. 13:00 came and they were called into the office of the IMC Chairman, Christian Moreau. It was he that called the meeting.
"Mister Beauvilliers, Miss Dorsett, thank you for coming. Please, have a seat," Christian said, as Théo and Claidie sat down. "I'll get straight to the point; I know you're both very busy people. The IMC has watched the SRS Electric Division with great interest. Second season in and you already have deals to travel abroad and demonstrate the technology to other nations, with Gojannestad and Beaconsfield confirmed and with rumors of an event in Mitta and even somewhere in Norsia either this season or next."
Claidie was surprised that Norsia was mentioned. There were only early indications that talks might happen with Andrenne, but Norsia was a total surprise to her. "I hadn't heard that one. Maybe King Tobias told Queen Alycia about the Beaconsfield event? I dunno. Those two are allies, so if that happened I wouldn't be surprised if I heard something from Malor-Kanada or Arrandal later on. But, I hadn't heard of the Norsia event."
"At any rate, the fact is that you're expanding beyond your borders and have the potential for global reach. My question is 'How far can you go?'" Christian said.
"With the proper backing, I think we could go a lot further," Théo suggested.
"The IMC currently has the IMC Grand Prix Championship for single-seaters and the IMC Grand Touring Championship for production I.C.E.[1] cars. What we don't have is a class of competition dedicated to all-electric vehicles," Christian admitted, "so here's what we want to do. If the two of you can put together a schedule for the 2020-2021 SRS Electric Division calendar that spans the world, with at least two-thirds of the events not being held within the Principality, the IMC would be willing to rebrand it as the IMC Electric Racing Championship, and you'll have "World Championship" status for it. If you can make the deals so that the 2019-2020 season qualifies, we'll even do that."
"But what about the events we already have? We can't just close them all down," Claidie worryingly said.
Théo knew the SRS couldn't shut down the Electric Division entirely. It was good for business and good for tourism within the principality. However, he had an idea to resolve Claidie's concern. "A feeder series. We start a feeder series once our existing electric division becomes the IMC world championship. We hold our feeder events but also organize the IMC world events."
"You have the cars, and you have good prospects for at least five events around the world. If you found just three, four, or five more, you'd have a solid schedule," Christian noted.
Claidie sat in silence for only a few moments before putting on a big grin. What the IMC was offering what exactly what she wanted, and Théo's idea protected what she already developed. "We'll make this work," she boldly declared.
"Good. Lock down that event in Mitta and investigate the Norsia prospect. Take it from there," Christian ordered. With the meeting concluded, Théo and Claidie set off on a bold quest to electrify the world of motorsport.
