By [ Alex Garin](/community/electromobili "Alex Garin") in [General](/community/videos/electromobili/videos/categories/general) 1140 views 28th Oct, 2025 Video Duration: N/A **[Jetson](https://ev.motorwatt.com/ev-database/flying-electric-vehicles/jetson-one "eVTOL JETSON ONE") Air Games Ignite Skies Over Dubai: World’s First Flying Car Race Delivers High-Octane Thrill** **Dubai, UAE – October 13, 2025** In a spectacle that fused Formula 1 speed with sci-fi spectacle, the **Jetson Air Games** roared into history yesterday as the planet’s inaugural sanctioned flying car race. Held above the shimmering dunes outside Dubai, the event saw 12 piloted eVTOL (electric vertical takeoff and landing) vehicles—branded “Jetson Racers”—battle through a glowing 3.2 km aerial circuit at speeds topping 220 km/h. Organized by Swedish firm **Jetson AB** in partnership with the Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism, the race featured carbon-neutral, single-seat crafts powered by eight tilting ducted fans. Pilots navigated a neon-lit slalom of 30-meter-high “sky gates,” mandatory barrel rolls, and a vertigo-inducing 180° vertical loop dubbed The Helix. **Pole-sitter Lila Chen** (Team SkyBlade, USA) clinched victory after a nail-biting final lap duel with Emirati rookie **Khalid Al-Mansoori** (Desert Falcon Racing). Chen’s winning time: **4 minutes 37 seconds**, just 0.8 seconds ahead of Al-Mansoori, who electrified the 15,000-strong crowd with a daring inside-line pass through Gate 9.“It’s like threading a needle at Mach 0.3 while the world spins below you,” Chen told reporters post-race, helmet still steaming from cockpit heat. “These aren’t drones—they fight you, then reward you.” **Race Highlights**- **Lap 3 incident****:** Italian pilot Marco Rossi’s Jetson clipped a gate pylon, triggering an automatic parachute deployment. Rossi landed safely in the dunes; the craft sustained only minor propeller damage. - **Tech first****:** Onboard AI co-pilots provided real-time wind correction, but human override was mandatory for all aggressive maneuvers—keeping the “pilot” in flying car. - **Sustainability stat****:** The entire fleet consumed less energy than a single F1 car’s warm-up lap, thanks to regenerative braking during descents. **Global Ripple Effects** The FAA and EASA sent observers, signaling fast-tracked certification pathways for Jetson’s consumer model (Jetson ONE, $92,000) slated for 2026 deliveries. Dubai announced plans for a permanent “Sky Grand Prix” circuit by 2027, projecting 500,000 annual spectators. **Pilot Quotes**- **Khalid Al-Mansoori****:** “We proved the desert can own the sky. Next year? Home turf gold.” - **Jetson CEO Peter Ternström****:** “This isn’t a stunt. It’s the starting grid for personal air mobility.” **What’s Next?** The Jetson Air Games circuit expands in 2026 with legs in Singapore, Los Angeles, and Tokyo. Qualification leagues launch January, open to licensed pilots with 50+ hours of eVTOL sim time. As the sun set over the floodlit finish line, one thing was clear: the age of flying car racing has landed—and it’s faster than anyone predicted.
