Looking forward to this - I'm guessing YouTube will be doing a live stream?

I'd like to see who is partnered with who; my guess is Lando and Max will do well given their sim racing exploits.

I'll definitely be watching. Short of the Legends Trophy put on by The Race, that's the most interesting driver lineup for any of these virtual events yet.

Lando and Max are in a team together, as are Alonso and Barrichello, Montoya with Pagenaud plus it's just been announced that Charles Leclerc is teaming up with Antonio Giovinazzi.

All teams are 4 drivers. Some are all pro drivers but most seem to be 2 pro drivers and 2 sim drivers.

Watched the last hour so I missed all of the Max/Lando histronics and Alonso's trouble. Decent end, looked for all the money in the world that the 01 car was going to run out of fuel on the last lap but they held on just fine in the end.

It was Rfactor2 not iracing


I think they should do this race every year in the off season. The response has been overwhelming positive despite a few technical hiccups involving big names
