Is IARacing the Danish driver that Kie keeps having run ins with? If so this should be interesting lol

How come no TeamUSA though?

Could be one of these:

Several countries are in the process of formalising their entries, with further announcements expected in the days to come.

This looking really good. Looking forward to it.

 

[BadFlounder]

eSports racing continues to evolve and I'm loving every minute of it.

 

[KepleroGT]

Yay! Italy!

 

[RACECAR]

Oh snap, wasn't expecting to See Cody's Father on the list. That's today's shocker for me.

And my favourite part is where Cody can race for Australia and his dad can race for Macedonia.

 

[Auditore]

Father and son in the same race?Now thats a interesting combination,would love to see dad latkovski in the gt sport championship.

 

[Jordanm]

Who is James Baldwin lol

 

[davidt33]

Who is James Baldwin lol

Alex Baldwin's brother.

I wonder how the entrant for Switzerland was selected... I tried contacting the Swiss Motorsport Authority about the selection process when I was still 2nd in Switzerland in the official Nations Cup season, but never got an answer.

Seems like there's no vetting for the drivers' skill level either. Makozi Sr isn't anywhere near the level of his son in terms of speed, but 2x the aggression

I'd love to know what he does for a living to be able to spend so much time simracing (his kudos page shows 2300+ races) and still have enough financial stability to be able to enter the event with 2 participants.

I sent this mesaage FIA as find thier lack of knowledge disturbing.


This message is for the up coming FIA digital cup . Its regarding one of the competing drivers and the unrecognized nation of Macedonia. Macedonia is a province of my home country which I reside in known as Greece . The legal name that has been agreed upon is North Macedonia, team Macedonia needs be changed to this name as it is the recognized name for this nation . please change team Macedonia to team North Macedonia for the upcoming event to stay within legal boundaries of the agreed parties . Team Macedonia resides in the country of Greece.
I understand this might not fall upon the right eyes but I ask you to pass it along to the people that can make the changes
Thank you
Demetrios

It is Barcelona. The driver has just exited the tight left-hander at Seat (Turn 5?) and is headed down to the uphill left-right chicane at Würth.

Is there anyway to watch the semi finals and reperchsrge events?

They’re meant to be on right now but there’s nothing on the FIA website.

I think that only the final is on the live stream.

 

[davidt33]

Tick tock tick tock.....

 

[davidt33]

Where's the link to watch this FIA Motorsport Games Digital Cup?
I clicked on a link I thought it was and all I'm seeing is real life racing, not digital with Hizal etc.
Can someone post a link for the live stream Digital Cup Final for me please?

 

[Subzidite]

I think that only the final is on the live stream.

as far as I know, The Repechage and Grand Final will be streamed. Semi A to C werent

so what I did is try to contact with some of Thai staff at the event and will document the race results over at Liquipedia.

This should help tracking down semifinal result more easier I think https://liquipedia.net/simracing/FIA_Motorsport_Games/Digital_Cup/2019

If Im correct Semi A finished, Germany Hungary Poland top 3 and B is starting soon

It's the same link. The Digital Cup is on when the drifting finishes - scheduled to be about six minutes from now.

 

[davidt33]

yes, Final and Repechage also

 

[davidt33]

Thanks a lot Famine and Subzidite. At least I know I won't miss it now. Have the link for it up and waiting.
Thought it was going to be 2:00pm my time here in the Caribbean but apparently it's at 3:00pm from what it says on the countdown. So I have about another 45 mins of waiting at the point of writing.
