Ahead of this weekend’s exciting return of the Safari Rally Kenya in the real-life WRC, the first time since 2002, the 2021 eSports WRC Championship also visited Africa for the tenth round.
If you’ve followed the eSports WRC Championship, presented by Toyota Gazoo Racing, this year, I’ll give you 10 seconds to guess who the round winner was…
Yes, you’re correct, it was Lebanese rising star Sami-Joe for the Seventh Gear e-Sport Club. 10 wins in a row, an incredible streak, he now has an unassailable lead heading into the final three rounds and the World Final.
The African stages are tricky, with narrow rock-strewn sections opening up into the vast wilderness for a flat-out charge. In this round, participants had to partake across two challenging stages – Ngema and the 14.33 km-long Ntulele Reverse.
