NEOM McLAREN EXTREME E TEAM STATEMENT ON EMMA GILMOUR

Following an incident this morning, Emma won’t be able to compete in the Island X Prix II this weekend

The NEOM McLaren Extreme E Team can confirm that Emma has undergone additional tests at Cagliari hospital following her incident earlier this morning, where further examination showed she has a small rib fracture.

As per standard procedure, Emma will be under observation in the hospital for the next 24 hours. She is naturally disappointed, but in good spirits.

As a result, Emma won’t be able to compete for the remainder of the Island X Prix II this weekend. Extreme E’s Championship Driver, Tamara Molinaro, will compete alongside Tanner for the team in place of Emma - as per championship protocol.

Get well soon Emma.
