CUPRA KIRO welcomes AQUAME as Official Hydration Partner
Data-driven hydration innovator, AQUAME, joins CUPRA KIRO to optimise performance in Formula E
As the countdown to the opening round of the 2025/26 FIA Formula E World Championship continues, CUPRA KIRO is delighted to welcome AQUAME as the team’s Official Hydration Partner for the coming campaign.
Founded in 2022, AQUAME is a revolutionary brand redefining the landscape of athletic performance by delivering real-time and historical hydration insights to understand individual needs and prevent under or over drinking.
Tackling the root causes of dehydration in sporting environments, AQUAME empowers proactive management, seamless data integration, and a bespoke holistic view of individual wellbeing to optimise athletic performance.
By using its advanced platform in Formula E, AQUAME will enable CUPRA KIRO’s drivers, Dan Ticktum and Pepe Martí, and team members to better manage their hydration, in-line with changing environmental and physical conditions posed by the 2025/26 schedule.
From pre-event preparation to post-race recovery, AQUAME’s hydration tracking, total fluid intake, water temperature analysis, and examination of historic consumption will provide CUPRA KIRO with a comprehensive view of each team member’s overall performance and wellbeing.
The 2025/26 Formula E season will commence this weekend on 6 December with the São Paulo E-Prix in Brazil – a race which marks the start of a 17-round season featuring events in Mexico City, Miami, Madrid Berlin, Monaco, Tokyo, and London.
