The Porsche Tag Heuer Esports Supercup is sim racing’s peak sports car esports competition featuring the world’s best sim racers. 40 drivers compete for $200,000 in one of sim racing’s most successful and innovative championships. Drivers compete in their virtual Porsche 911 GT3 Cup cars across the world’s most famous tracks, such as Spa Francorchamps, Monza, Weathertech Laguna Seca Raceway, and Barber Motorsports Park, among others. An exciting format utilizes qualifying inverts and points scored across two races every race weekend. Porsche’s commitment and promotion of the series has led it to become the pinnacle of sim racing, and our success in this series has led to the most stature and growth for our team.
Porsche Esports Sprint Challenge
In addition to the return of the Porsche TAG Heuer Esports Supercup, Porsche and iRacing are teaming up to put on a second esports series in 2020. The Porsche Esports Sprint Challenge will see the Porsche Cayman GT4 Clubsport take on the same tracks of the Porsche Esports Supercup in a series of super sessions throughout the year.
iRacing’s Special Events are races that mimic some of real-life motorsport’s most famous events. From the 12 Hours of Sebring, to the Indianapolis 500, to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, these events are some of the biggest highlights of the year. Every event is an exact simulation of the real race, from its length, to the cars involved, to the day and night cycles of the events. These races attract the stars of the real world as well, with stars such as Max Verstappen and Lando Norris joining in to attempt to win some of the most competitive events sim racing has to offer.
The Thrustmaster Rallycross World Championship replicates one of motorsport’s most extreme and exciting forms of racing in the world. Competing in extremely short, extremely fast races on tracks that are half-asphalt and half-dirt, the Rallycross World Championship is one of the most entertaining series in all of sim racing. With races every week during the season, real-life involvement by official Rallycross teams and manufacturers alike, and a $25,000 prize pool, this series is among the most elite esports championships
