This weekend, the second round of the Le Mans Virtual Series will take place at Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, utilizing the rFactor 2 simulator. 38 teams composed of three drivers are entered into the 6 Hours of Spa. The action starts on Friday with qualifying and concludes on Saturday with the main event.
Leading the commentary team, FIA World Endurance Championship announcer Duncan Vincent will be paired together with Chris McCarthy and Lewis McGlade. The entry list for Spa is headlined by real world talent such as Felix Rosenqvist, Jack Doohan, Caio Collet, Louis Deletraz and Sage Karam.
In the opening round, the 4 Hours of Monza last month, Realteam Hydrogen Redline’s No. 70 took the LMP2 victory while Porsche Esports Team’s No. 92 was victorious in the LMGTE class.
The Belgium circuit is 7 kilometers in length and contains 20 of the best known corners in all of motorsports. There’s a tease that weather could possibly play a factor, but there is no official word on the forecast.
Traxion.GG will carry all of the broadcasts on all of our social media channels. Whether you prefer to watch on YouTube, Facebook or Twitch, we’ve got you covered. The Twitch stream in particular will feature an interactive broadcast that you won’t want to miss.
Besides the Traxion streams, there will also be broadcasts on the FIA WEC YouTube and Facebook pages as well as the 24 Heures du Mans YouTube and Facebook pages. The Le Mans Virtual Facebook page will also carry the stream, if you fancy to watch over there.
Trust us though, Traxion.GG’s Twitch is the place to be for the best viewing experience. I heard there might be a prize, as well…
