Although the real-world 2020 season of the Formula One World Championship is having a little trouble getting underway, the virtual version is on its way soon. Yes, Codemasters has announced the launch date for the F1 2020, the official game of the 2020 F1 season, and it’s coming July 10.

Audi’s factory DTM drivers have launched another esports initiative, with an unusual twist. Members of the public can gain a spot on the grid each week, not by playing but by painting.

It’s been pretty hard to miss that there’s no motorsport on the TV right now. With teams, drivers, broadcasters, and fans all stuck at home, racing is impossible. The virtual world has been filling in, but there’s only so much it can do.

The virtual world hasn’t proven the best place for some racing drivers to ply their trade recently. Last weekend, NASCAR Cup Series driver Bubba Wallace lost a real world sponsor for his behavior on the digital track. This week it’s Kyle Larson, who’s one-upped Wallace by getting suspended by both his team and NASCAR itself.

DiRT Rally 2.0 players could win a trip to Washington for a rally school lesson from Oliver Solberg, in a new competition that starts today.

Fans waiting for new details about Sony’s upcoming PlayStation 5 can now get a first look at how they’ll be playing their next generation games. It’s not the console, rather the new controller.

Although we’ve seen plenty of esports events stepping in to fill the gaping gulf in the world motorsport calendar, they’ve all been rather serious affairs on rather serious sims (and bizarrely serious results). With Assetto Corsa Competizione, rFactor 2, and iRacing all staging events, there’s not been much hosted on the more accessible racing games. That’s set to change this afternoon, courtesy of Renault Sport.
