Mark Boudreau LL.B.’s Post

The next F1 world champion will be a sim racer, yes you read that right. You will see what I mean in this week’s edition of the Sim Racing Roundup. I also have more examples of sim racers succeeding in real life racing (IRL), how race drivers use sim racing as a development tool and the usual sim racing tips, news, and tech reviews. #simracing #esports #Formula1 https://lnkd.in/gZ8z3j_2

There needs to be a clear pathway. Right now the young female drivers in the F1 Academy don't even have a proper one, so sim racers are going to struggle even harder because at least the F1 Academy drivers have proved themselves in a real car. Perhaps we need a comparable F3 level series for sim racers?

It’s getting close I think, but Simulator racers have to accept that REAL motor racing is inherently a physical sport too, and work on that side as hard as the technical 💪👍🏁

This is incredible! Looking forward to seeing drivers make it up the ranks with simracing.

The current F1 world champion is a simracer?

The current F1 Champion is also one of the best sim racers. It’s already happened. Max and Lando grew up on iRacing.

Init Esports should be a presenting partner! Or Stefy Bau should be on the advisory board

100% Mark Boudreau LL.B. 🙌 in fact, I don’t think you’ll see a racing driver who’s never been on a sim!
