Assetto Corsa Competizione and Lamborghini Begin The Real Race – Super Trofeo Esports Competition
Lamborghini, publisher 505 Games, and developer KUNOS Simulazioni announce today that the fourth The Real Race – Super Trofeo Esports Season has kicked off in Assetto Corsa Competizione, the official GT World Challenge racing game. Drivers around the world will compete to become Lamborghini esports brand ambassadors in Europe, North & South America, and Asia-Pacific (APAC) regions, as well as drive the Lamborghini Huracán Super Trofeo EVO2 car.
Drivers from the EU region are invited to participate in a four-round online racing series, preceded by a hotstint competition ahead of each standalone racing event, while NALA and APAC Regions have a single hotstint qualification (each) followed by a Regional Final featuring the best 24 drivers from each region.
New for this season is an opportunity for aspiring Esport talent to showcase their skills live, on-site at a selection of world-famous racing venues throughout Europe. Running alongside the Fanatec GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS racing paddock, the fantastic Fanatec Arena will be made available for members of the public to try their hand on our cutting-edge racing simulations, with the fastest driver from each event earning a wildcard entry into The Real Race – Super Trofeo Esports Grand Final.
