On Tuesday, a full list of teams were announced for the upcoming Le Mans Virtual Series that’s being held on the rFactor 2 platform. The five-round series starts in a few weeks and will feature two classifications of cars endurance racing at historic venues.
A bunch of heavy hitters are on the list, including but not limited to Red Bull Racing Esports, Williams Esports, Team Redline and Team Fordzilla. It’s impressive, to say the least.
There is a $250,000 prize pool that these teams will be aiming to grab a share of. Each of these car including five drivers combining FIA international-licensed drivers and professional sim drivers.
The full list can be viewed below. There are 38 cars in total, 21 under the LMP2 class and the other 17 under the LMGTE class. The first event takes place on 25th September, so we expect more news before then.
Every race will be live on our YouTube and Twitch channels, plus the Facebook page. Traxion.GG is a media partner of the series, so expect news, race reports and exclusive content. Keep it pinned!
