Fireline + Heroes Eminent WGPC Team, usually resumed as Eminent, is an Ethanian-Lisanderian World Grand Prix Championship racing team established by Bitten Heroes Grand Prix Engineering and Fireline Motorsports, to compete in World Grand Prix Championship 19. This new relationship sees the two teams combine their expertise and car research and development programmes for at least this season in an effort to stay within the rapidly advancing competitive grid in WGPC. For the past two seasons, Team Bitten Heroes have been "renting" their licence and have had some mediocre results, but were hoping with government backing to reenter the WGPC under their own power. Fireline Motorsports are another team not well-established in the WGPC with a string of relatively mediocre season finishes and a lack of the level of financial backing needed to reach the top of the grid in WGPC. With the two teams now working together in a bid to reach the grid for the season, the two teams will be hoping that their collaboration will allow for a more competitive season for both.
WGPC Seasons
WGPC 19: the foundation
The team was founded as a joint venture, a partnership between two teams that have had a strong shared history together, both having started their WGPC journeys in season 15. In the first season, the team saw collaboration across the board, especially in areas such as research and development, strategy, and publicity. However, inside the paddock, Fireline and Bitten Heroes each had their own space and each team predominantly managed one side of the garage. Fireline kept the contract of Valentian driver Adriana Ela Kowalski Lillian, while Bitten Heroes opted to keep Anneliese Devereux, previously in team TAS-Alliance. The name Eminent itself emerged from the depths of collaboration between these two teams. Two teams coming together was a noteworthy event, with the goal of being prominent in the WGPC season with lofty goals. Also, both teams already shared the same colours. The WGP2 Academy Teams remained separate institutions.
WGPC 20: Bitten Heroes pull the support, Anneliese keeps with new sponsors
For the following season, Bitten Heroes GPE ended its international operations, transferring structure and personnel to Eminent, as well as releasing Devereux. Despite that, Callum Ascander, team director, advanced to the media that "this disruption has not impacted the competitiveness of the car for this season".[1]
