Veloce Racing reveals CanO Water partnership for Ocean X Prix
London-based Extreme E team, Veloce Racing has announced a one race partnership with revolutionary drink container solutions specialists, CanO water. This partnership was born from a mutual goal to disrupt their respective industries, changing the way people think about recyclable water storage as well as sustainable motorsport.
CanO Water was established after its three co-founders witnessed the horrifying effects of plastic pollution first-hand during a trip to Thailand in 2014. The sight of harmful plastic bottles littering the beaches inspired Josh White, Perry Alexander Fielding and Ariel Booker to dive deeper into the statistics surrounding plastic and aluminium recyclability. Following some worrying reading, CanO Water was born. Now, in 2021 the brand has sold over 15 million cans that are recyclable forever to stores and events across the UK.
With just 7% of total worldwide plastic being recycled, and the UK recycling 82% of aluminium beverage cans in 2020, the need for change is clear.
Veloce Racing meanwhile has made the leap from esports to real-world competition and has quickly established itself as a key player in electric motorsport.
Extreme E’s second race – the Ocean X Prix (29-30 May) – presented a perfect opportunity for this collaboration to take shape, with Veloce working with a local NGO to support efforts to decrease plastic pollution in Senegalese waters.
The one-race partnership will see CanO Water branding adorn the Veloce Racing ODYSSEY 21 bodywork while canned water will be supplied to the team to keep them on top of their game this weekend.
Daniel Bailey, CEO, Veloce Racing commented:
“We’re really excited to have CanO Water onboard for the Ocean X Prix. Their values align with our own so well and it ties in perfectly with the Legacy Programme which the team are supporting before the race in Senegal.
“Plastic pollution is obviously a huge problem and more needs to be done to combat it. The work CanO Water are doing to improve the recyclability of drinks containers is unparalleled, so we’re all hugely proud to announce this partnership.”
Josh White, Co Founder, CanO Water added:
“Collaborating with brands like Veloce is the perfect way for us to increase our visibility and get our message out there in front of fresh audiences that are sustainability conscious and engaged with the issues plastic pollution creates for our planet. Veloce’s environmental goals, make this the perfect place to be raising awareness for our brand.”

Midnite has agreed a partnership with Middlesbrough FC that will see the UK bookmaker become the club’s principal partner and front-of-shirt sponsor for the 2026/27 campaign, which Middlesbrough describes as its landmark 150th season.
The companies announced the deal alongside a fan activation at Riverside Stadium on Thursday, July 9, branded “This Season’s On Us”. The initiative offered supporters prizes including 2026/27 season tickets, 2026/27 shirts, match tickets, or a £25 club shop voucher, with fans required to answer Middlesbrough trivia and complete a football challenge.
Middlesbrough former players Craig Hignett and David Wheater attended the event, and, according to the company, took bonus attempts on behalf of participants who missed out.
Andrew Mook, Midnite’s Head of Brand Marketing, said:
“Middlesbrough have a storied history and we’re delighted to announce this partnership during such a monumental year with the club celebrating their 150th anniversary.
“It was great to see so many Middlesbrough fans at the “This Season’s On Us” activation, we hope they enjoyed taking part and meeting club legends, with David Wheater hitting top bins on several occasions and allowing fans to win big with season tickets.
“We can’t wait to get to Riverside Stadium in August to kick-off a new season and we’re excited to say that we have plenty of new and captivating campaigns planned.”
Lee Fryett, Middlesbrough FC Chief Commercial Officer, added:
“We’re delighted to welcome Midnite as our new Principal Partner.
“We’re looking forward to working closely with Midnite to develop engaging campaigns, content and unique experiences that bring our fans even closer to the club.
“We’re confident this partnership will provide real value for our supporters while supporting our ambitions both on and off the pitch.”

ThrillTech has been awarded a Gaming-Related Supplier licence by the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), clearing the company to launch in Ontario’s regulated market.
The licence allows ThrillTech to deploy its opt-in side bet jackpots technology with regulated online casino, sports betting and lottery operators across the province.
Benjamin Bradtke, Co-Founder of ThrillTech, said: “Securing our AGCO licence is a major step in our mission to transform how jackpots are delivered at scale across regulated markets. This latest certification is testament to our robust technology and trusted compliance frameworks, allowing us to continue our global growth trajectory. We are thrilled to bring our proven, compliant jackpot technology to Ontario, empowering locally licensed operators to uplift revenue without cannibalising existing spend.”
The company said its “ThrillPots” mechanics sit as an independent, player-funded side bet and do not alter the underlying game’s return-to-player mathematics.
ThrillTech said the Ontario approval enables its existing multinational partners that also operate in the province to launch its side bet jackpots locally, while it also holds talks with potential new operator partners. The company lists its regulated footprint as including the United Kingdom, Sweden, the Netherlands, Romania, Malta, Gibraltar, Brazil and Peru.
