The world-renowned esports team, Coanda Simsport, took victory in the 24 Hours of Daytona on iRacing this weekend.
Their team consisted of a trio of some of the iRacing service’s very best road course drivers: Joshua Rogers, Mitchell deJong and Mack Bakkum.
In some respects, it was a dominant victory for the #8 Coanda Simsport team. They led 861 of the 898 laps in their LMP2 car. That said, the whole podium was on the same lap – with Williams Esports in 2nd, 50 seconds behind and Mivano just 7 seconds behind them in 3rd.
Although Red Bull Formula 1 driver Max Verstappen qualified the Team Redline Orange car on pole position in the GTE class, they later retired fairly early on. They received minor bodywork damage, resulting in the car being “3-4kph” down on the straights.
Triple A Esports took the GTE win in their BMW M8 – closely followed by MSI eSports Red and BMW Team BS Competition.
