Some well known drivers are taking part too. Then the other two are Team RedLine in partnership with Porsche and a new Esports team from the UAE, Yas Heat which is working with Veloce Esports. Teams from F1 such as Red Bull, Racing Point and Williams are competing as are the sim racing divisions of BMW, Ford and even Suzuki in collaboration with Jean Alesi’s Esports Academy. Who are the teams? Well the V10 R-League, with its prize pool of £100,000 to be distributed across the eight teams depending on the result at the end of it, has attracted some very big names. I believe it may be a case of it being like a tournament format, starting off with eight teams in the first round, four in the second and then two for the final.
Finally you have a sprint race, all six drivers take to the track with team scores for the round based on positions, the highest score gets the point. What follows is a relay race where each driver heads out on track one at a time, swapping in the pits with a team mate, the fastest team across all three drivers scores the next point. In this event, teams match up their drivers in three short one-on-one races with the first team to win two races getting the first point.
#TOCA RACE DRIVER 3 ROTAX MAX SERIES#
You have eight teams and three drivers each, one team takes on another in a series of races, the first of which is a head-to-head. The Global Racing Series V10 R-League is a sim racing championship that takes place on Assetto Corsa with a very intriguing format. Well now, a new championship is coming onto the scene with an interesting format and has attracted some of the biggest teams in the world of both real and virtual racing. Then you have championships that existed long before the sim racing boom, such as Formula Sim Racing, the Grand Prix Virtual World Championship, and prominent league racing series such as Apex Online Racing and Online Racing League. We had so much virtual racing to enjoy – ranging from officially sanctioned events by major motorsport championships such as F1, Ind圜ar, NASCAR, Aussie Supers, MotoGP and Formula E – to originals like the All-Star Series by The Race and the VCO Cup of Nations. Tune in every Sunday until we wrap up the series for more TOCA Race Driver 3 nostalgia.We all very much enjoyed the variety of Esports action in the beginning portion of this year whilst real world racing was on hold. Not going to lie, that Ultima Can-Am Tour looks really fun!ĭon’t forget to watch the first 18 episodes in the series before watching this episode to see how John Traxion has got to this point. I’ve just got to make it through the other three races that take place at Spa-Francorchamps, a very wet Silverstone, and Bahrain… and I’ll have to go through my teammate once again to ensure I advance.Īfter that’s completed, Tier 26 has a couple of interesting championships to choose from between DTM (again), Rally (again), or an Ultima Can-Am Tour. I’m starting this episode with max points in my pocket after winning at Zandvoort last week, so I’m hoping to not repeat the same mistakes. In the previous episode, I learned there was a steep learning curve between dominating the Ind圜ars on ovals and competing well in a Formula 1 beast from the eighties at some of the most challenging circuits they run on.
Alright, so my first attempt with the Williams Honda FW11B didn’t go so well, but I’m confident in my ability to conquer the F1 classic in this latest episode of Let’s Play TOCA Race Driver 3.
