Alpine Esports is introducing a new Endurance series, offering sim-racers the opportunity to compete in virtual Alpine LMP2 cars, across four iconic circuits.

The Alpine Esports Endurance Cup, is a premier competition designed to empower grassroots sim racers to showcase their talents.

This competition is the newest exciting addition to Alpine Esports’ racing series program alongside the popular Alpine Esports Series.

Providing a unique opportunity for emerging talents, competitors will vie for a spot on the virtual podium by piloting Alpine LMP2 cars across four challenging circuits.

The competition will feature 50 drivers across 25 teams on the iRacing platform and will be broadcast on Alpine’s Twitch and YouTube channels.

This new championship will see drivers work within teams to manage their tyres and adapt their fuel strategies to make it over the finish line before their rivals. This initiative aims to foster the growth of the esports and sim racing ecosystem.

Open server qualifying: Aspiring racers will have the chance to qualify on an open server, ensuring a level playing field for all competitors.

Qualification occurs in two stages.

The first was a week-long process before the race, to secure one of the 50 open spots with the quickest top 50 qualifying.

Second, a 2-lap qualification session just before the race to determine the grid.

The winning team will receive an exclusive, all expenses paid, experience for the 2024 WEC Round 6 hrs of Spa, including passes for the race and immersion with the Alpine Endurance Team

The first race kicks off on Saturday, October 14th at 10:30 AM CEST. Witness the action live on Alpine Esports’ official Twitch and YouTube channels.
