Along with the much praised Alpine Esports Series, this championship is the most recent addition to Alpine Esports’ racing series program. Alpine LMP2 cars will be piloted over four difficult circuits by aspiring talents competing for their moment of glory.

The Alpine Esports Endurance Cup is more than just a competition; it’s a platform created to foster the development of esports and sim racing. Drivers are encouraged to collaborate in teams, control tire wear, and plan their fuel usage in order to win the tournament. The objective of this cooperative project is to develop the next sim racing stars.

Key Competition Details
