In a year that has seen the MotoGP™ eSport Championship reach new heights, the first-ever FIM Enel MotoE™ eSport Challenge has been launched.
Gamers from around the world will attempt to set the fastest time possible at the Ricardo Tormo Circuit in Valencia with MotoE™ World Cup winner Matteo Ferrari and his Energica Ego Corsa machine using the official MotoGP™20 videogame.
And what prizes are on offer? The Challenge can be contested on all platforms (PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC) and the gamer who sets the fastest time on each platform will be invited to whichever Grand Prix of their choosing in 2021 (should the situation regarding Covid-19 allow it).
The Challenge gets underway on Thursday, November 5th at 11am (GMT+1) and runs until Sunday 15th at 7pm (GMT+1). The participants may attempt the MotoE™ eSport Challenge as many times as they wish.
The eSport Challenge will be disputed in time attack mode at the Valencia track, with the MotoE rider Mateo Ferrari and his Energica Ego Corsa bike without any opponents, in order to set the fastest single lap time. Weather conditions will be pre- determined and cannot be changed.
The best laps of the FIM Enel MotoE™ eSport Challenge will be available through MotoGP™20 videogame as ghosts. All ghosts can be downloaded by competitors and loaded for the participant's attempt to give a visual reference of the current best on-track performance.
In case of any irregularities, such as exceeding the track limits, falling at any point, and collisions with walls or other elements, current lap times will be considered invalid.
So charge your batteries and take to the track. You don't want to miss out!
