WATCH: Formula Pro Series Round 3, Nürburgring Live

Two rounds into the inaugural Formula Pro Series within rFactor 2, and you’d be forgiven for thinking that the Mercedes-AMG Petronas Esports Team and star-driver Bono Huis have had it all their own way.

After all, the results show two dominant victories. But, those results weren’t without a fight, and in particular last time out at Silverstone, Team Redline were in victory contention. The battle for supremacy is well and truly on.

The esports championship moves to the Nürburgring Grand Prix venue, and everyone on the 26-car grid will be hungry for a victory.

The broadcast will start with a qualifying session, followed by a 60-minute race that features a mandatory in-race tyre change. If the incredible V10-powered single-seaters weren’t enough of a spectacle, keep your eyes on the strategy plays too.

The Formula Pro Series broadcast starts from 18:30 BST / 19:30 CEST / 13.30 ET / 10.30 PT today on the Traxion.GG YouTube channel and Facebook page – we’ll see you there!
