This is how the virtual 24 Hours of Le Mans ended for Verstappen, just like last year, before the race was even halfway. Then a ‘glitch’ in the system ruined the party for the Dutchman and his team. It then led to an outburst of anger at Verstappen, who was also in the lead at the time. Team Redline started the race from P2, but soon took the lead. At the time of the crash, Verstappen was one minute ahead of the first pursuer.
The Virtual 24 of Le Mans is the grand final of the Le Mans Virtual Series. That series of races started in September and since then four races have been completed on the circuits of Monza, Spa-Francorchamps, the American Sebring and the Nürburgring. Team Redline, for which Verstappen only took place in the simulator during the last race, was half a point behind the lead in the standings when entering the last race.
In addition to Verstappen, drivers such as Juan Pablo Montoya, Beitske Visser, Romain Grosjean, Bent Viscaal and Jarno Opmeer also started the 24-hour race. We will know the winners tomorrow afternoon at 2 p.m.
