Posted to Maritime Reporter on November 7, 2025

Tom Brady, with his Team Brady, is on the hunt for another championship. This time it's on water. They are aiming to win a second consecutive E1 title in Miami at Saturday's series finale.

The seven-time Super Bowl champion said, "It would be a big deal for our team," ahead of the final event at Biscayne Bay.

"Our team has put in a lot more effort over the past couple of years... we have a group of people who are really dedicated to excellence." This year we are right there in the mix with a couple of points to our name and one race left.

Brady, who bought an E1 team two years ago and has been a part of it ever since, says the growth in the all-electric competition has strengthened his commitment.

He said, "I have been involved from the beginning... We've achieved tremendous success."

"It is fun to see how the team works together, and I am excited that we are on top going into the final race."

Emma Kimilainen, Team Brady pilot, and Sam Coleman, Team Brady pilot completed their final runs on the Friday before race day. They described a tight field with a busy schedule.

Kimilainen, a member of the opposition, said: "They looked super fast this weekend."

You know it's E1, so anything could happen.

Tom has prepared us for a very stressful day tomorrow. He is always positive."

Coleman says Brady's competitiveness permeates the team.

He said that "Tom’s competitive mentality runs through the entire team."

We all want to win. We will all do whatever it takes to achieve it. But we also want to enjoy ourselves. Tom's support is great, because it's a kind of trust in our abilities.

Brady said that he was aware of the friendly rivalry that comes with a celebrity-backed racing paddock, which includes LeBron and Rafa.

"You want to see your friends succeed. "But when I'm playing against them, I always want my team to win. I know that our team puts in a lot effort," he explained.

Kimilainen is a former race driver from Finland who added a message to aspiring drivers.

"To all girls, and women everywhere: You can become anything you want. "If you believe in you and get others to believe in you, you can achieve anything," she said.

The season's champion will be determined by multiple heats on Saturday. The final begins with Team Brady in a small points lead. (Written by Rory Carroll, Los Angeles; edited by Himani Sarkar).
