As we all know, this year’s real 24 Hours of Le Mans have been postponed to September 19, which is why WEC has made a special announcement informing that the official virtual version will be developed on June 13 of this year, where real professional drivers and simracers will compete.
Official notes:
For many of us, diving into the world of sim racing was all about replicating the amazing moments we witnessed in front of TV or trackside. The passion for motorsport and the wish of being a major part of it, being the hero in our favourite car, lifting the trophy of our favourite championship. It´s similar when you get into development or any other job attached to sim racing. You want to bring to life your experiences with the software you are working on. For many of you who know rFactor 2, you are probably familiar with the name of our studio and the story behind it: Studio ‘397’, based on the maximum amount of laps that had been done by a winning team in the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
So, with that, we are proud to announce that we have teamed up with the ACO, the organiser of the 24 Hours of Le Mans and Motorsport Games to bring you the most iconic endurance event in the world to rFactor 2 – on the 13th and 14th June 2020. With full coverage, real racing teams, real motorsport action, that’s what awaits you!
See you on the track!
