The free-to-play racing sim will host 10 rounds of competition. There will be a hot lap leaderboard for each event with the top 144 drivers qualifying for 6 divisions of racing at each circuit, along with with 56 reserve drivers. Races take place on Thursday evenings with a live broadcast of the top server, and will involve two sprint races and a top 10 reverse grid.

And even if you don’t progress any further, you’ll be able to keep the CUPRA Leon Competicion car for free after the competition has ended, while the car would usually costs £3.45 to download and use.
