Welcome to the Ranked Championship 2024 - Season 1!

[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

It's the third year we're organizing the Ranked Championship! As is tradition, we're organizing two seasons this year and the first season is kicking off today with the newly released BMW pack. We also have a few small changes, so make sure you read the topic on the forums!



[h2]Series 1: [/h2]
The BMW M2 CS Racing Cup. The significant performance upgrade (450bhp) compared to the BMW M235i is almost a guarantee for action packed races, while still accessible for drivers of all skill levels.
2 x 20 minutes race with a fixed setup, top 10 reversed grid
Tracks: TT Assen, Red Bull Ring, Circuit Zolder

[h2]Series 2: [/h2]

The BMW M4 GT4 Trophy. The latest edition to the GT4 class is based on the new G82 model with 550bhp and is a worthy successor to the first generation M4. With a slightly different race format than usual, we hope to bring an exciting series to the championship.
1 x 25 minutes and 1 x 15 minutes race with an open setup, top 5 reversed grid
Tracks: Hockenheimring, Lausitzring, Nordschleife

[h2]Series 3: [/h2]
The GTE Masters with the BMW M8 GTE and the Porsche 911 RSR. Finally an addition to the GTE class and what better way to celebrate it with using it as the third series of season 1!
1 x 60 minutes race with an open setup and a mandatory pitstop
Tracks: Daytona, Interlagos, Imola




Everybody is invited to participate on the leaderboards to set their best lap times. You do not have to own the car or track in order to set a lap time, which means it's a great way to test the new cars. And best of all; if you're in the top xx of the Leaderboard Championship you can win vRP prizes - for all three series, so you have three opportunities win prizes!




Three rounds of regional races will act as qualifiers to the grand final for each series; the best of the best are invited to race in the series finale! The top drivers after three rounds can win vRP prizes, even if they didn't make it to the finale.
All races will take place on Wednesday. All confirmed participants will be divided into grids using a matchmaking formula (rating * reputation / 100)
The top split of Europe will be broadcasted live on the official RaceRoom channels along with the global series finale. The streams are announced on Discord, Social Media and in this topic.

[h2]You can now register for the races on the official RaceRoom discord[/h2]
