- LGMC switches from Forza Motorsport to LMU for 2026
- Prize pool worth $35,000 available
- Daily qualifiers running from May until July
The Logitech G McLaren Challenge is back for 2026, and this time the sim racing competition has switched from Forza Motorsport to Le Mans Ultimate.
Jointly produced by Formula 1 team McLaren and Swiss-American tech giant Logitech, this year’s Logitech G McLaren Challenge (LGMC) will feature a prize pool worth over $35,000, including Logitech and Playseat products.
A VIP trip to the stunning Norman Foster-designed McLaren Technology Centre, where the team’s championship-winning cars are built, is also up for grabs, with all eligible players who enter the competition eligible to win the concurrent Sweepstakes prize haul (prizes for the lucky winner are listed near the bottom of this article).
The LGMC has previously run on titles such as iRacing, Assetto Corsa and Assetto Corsa Competizione and the aforementioned Forza Motorsport, giving virtual drivers a chance to get behind the wheel of iconic McLaren race cars through the generations. This year is no different, with the McLaren 720S LMGT3 Evo being the main protagonist.
Daily Qualifiers
Players can progress through the LGMC by competing in daily LMU qualifying races (schedule noted below, with the first at Spa-Francorchamps open now), and the 12 fastest drivers – two from each qualifier – will advance to the Grand Finals in August.
