rFactor 2 and BMW Motorsport have confirmed that their sim racing esports competition will return for another season of six races. They’ve lined up a €5,100 prize pool (€850 per race) to be split across the top three drivers. It’s open to everyone so now’s a great time to check out whether you think you’ve got the potential to win.
How to qualify
Each of the six races has its own qualification period – meaning that it’s not a traditional championship with guaranteed entries, you’ll have to qualify each time. This is great if you missed out for the initial intake but might mean a little bit more work!
The qualification sessions are 2-hours long, with one session per day, for the three days approximately a week and a half the race itself. The top 30 cumulative timed drivers will be invited to the race.
- 25th – 27th February 2021 – Qualification for Round 1
- 11th – 13th March 2021 – Qualification for Round 2
- 25th – 27th March 2021 – Qualification for Round 3
- 8th – 10th April 2021 – Qualification for Round 4
- 22nd – 24th April 2021 – Qualification for Round 5
- 6th – 8th May 2021 – Qualification for Round 6
Race schedule
The series takes place at the same track as the rFactor 2 GT Pro competition, ahead of the qualification for GT Pro competitors. This should help guarantee additional exposure and viewership for the series.
