Administrator Stan Posted March 20, 2020 Administrator Share Posted March 20, 2020 Nice! I'm guessing this is like the eSports run on FIFA? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy Posted March 20, 2020 Moderator Share Posted March 20, 2020 I'd be very surprised if Max and Lando aren't part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber nudge+ Posted March 21, 2020 Author Subscriber Share Posted March 21, 2020 Haha this is going to fail as no actual drivers want to participate nobody likes the F1 official game apparently. So I'll just rename the thread to include all F1 E-Sports competitions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah, back on the grid after all. That was his plan all along. No Lando though. Jimmy Broadbent was expected as well, so that's no surprise. Fun fact: Thibaut Courtois is a very decent sim racer. He was in that race with Max last week I believe, and got a very decent result. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy Posted March 22, 2020 Moderator Share Posted March 22, 2020 Watching that Virtual Race thing. Lando's game crashed or something so he's out of Qualifying. And Johnny Herbert keeps crashing his car in Quali, haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator Tommy Posted March 22, 2020 Moderator Share Posted March 22, 2020 E-Sports is not really my thing too, and I often find it cringeworthy how they celebrate those e-sports "stars", but I'm watching this a bit on the side because of the big names.
