I may have misread something somewhere but I thought there had to be a mix of real and sim racers in each entry?

This virtual race won't be not very far from reality : lots ans lots of Oreca, several GTs. I will eat a merguez-frites-beer before the start and have a look.

Well, I'll probably take a look. A merguez would be nice if I can find some for the barbecue. I won't be staying up all night though!

Team Red Line is entering with Max Verstappen and Lando Norris. That makes it a lot more interesting for me. Until now I had no plans watching any sim racing, because.... Not my cup of tea.

I think it's a case of both something to do on that weekend plus the novelty value....

They've both done plenty of virtual 24h races in iRacing in the past few years, including virtual LM24s, so they have experience (and that automatically negates the "novelty value").

Here's the virtual entry list: https://24virtual.lemansesports.com/...entry_list.pdf
Really not sure how much attention I'll give to this. Regardless, I hope it will inspire some of the top drivers to race Le Mans for real in the years to come. |
