The finals for the 2020 and 2021 eSports WRC Championship presented by TOYOTA GAZOO Racing will be happening in Belgium and Greece respectively, and the winners will receive a brand-new Toyota GR Yaris road car.
The car of my dreams, and with a long waiting list at present, the contenders will battle it out on location at WRC events for the two titles.
The 2020 eSports WRC final was postponed last due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but will now happen during the Renties Ypres Rally Belgium on 14th August 2021 using WRC 9. 10 drivers will be taking part, eight who qualified during the 2020 eSports WRC season plus Seventh Gear e-Sport Club’s Greekman who won the Monte-Carlo eSports Launch and Mihalo who won the Neste Rally Finland eChallenge.
