Mercedes-AMG is again sponsoring a virtual race series, which follows along the European DTM (Deutsche Tourenwagen Masters) series race by race. The final races will coincide somewhat, making an exciting finish for a few skilled players!

The e-series will take place in the RaceRoom video game, on the internet-based gaming platform Steam. Each race weekend will have a practice session and a qualifying round. From that round, only the first 17 qualifiers will go on to race the main multi-player event.
The top six virtual racers in the series standings will win a trip to Hockenheim for the real-life final DTM race, complete with VIP pass. Mercedes-AMG will cover travel costs and accommodations, and these six e-racers will get to race their final event in the Mercedes-AMG Motorsport DTM VIP lounge.
Pretty cool finale! But the prizes are the best part. The top three winners of the e-championship will have a chance to test their skills on a real racetrack with real training. The series champion gets a full package of Mercedes-AMG training, including an opportunity to be coached by a pro Mercedes-AMG brand ambassador.
