The carbon fibre catamaran hulls are powered by Mercury Racing OptiMax 2.5XS outboards.[1]
Qualifying periods (Q1, Q2 & a shoot out) decide the formation of the grid.
Each race lasts approximately 45 minutes following a circuit marked out in a selected stretch of water, usually a lake, river, dock, or sheltered bay.
Portugal's Duarte Benavente won the 2020 UIM F2 World Championship with Edgaras Riabko from Lithuania second and Britain's Owen Jelf third.[2][3]
