    The Esports championship will be contested on the critically acclaimed  'Assetto Corsa' software, developed by Kunos Simulazioni, and will be raced in a Ferrari 488 Challenge Evo, available exclusively for those taking part in the competition.

    The tournament will be divided into two categories: 'AM Series', open to those who register and participate through rounds of qualifying, and 'PRO Series', a selection of 24 sim racers invited directly by Ferrari.

    The first act of the tournament will be the qualifying phase for the AM Series, starting from 1st of September, whose winners will join the sim racers invited by Ferrari in the PRO Series. Both categories will compete in parallel on the same tracks in a real championship phase in October.

    Taking the podium’s top step will mean more than simply taking the Championship crown as the overall winner will be offered the opportunity to be evaluated to become part of the 'FDA Hublot Esports team', together with the reigning champion drivers of F1 Esports Series David Tonizza and Enzo Bonito.

    Charles Leclerc, championship ambassador, and great Esports fan will also closely follow the championship and will offer his experience as a real and virtual pilot to the participants.

    Title Partner: Hublot

    Founded in Switzerland in 1980, HUBLOT is defined by its innovation, which began with the highly original combination of gold and rubber.  The release of the iconic, multi-award-winning Big Bang in 2005 paved the way for new flagship collections (Classic Fusion, Spirit of Big Bang), with complications ranging from the simple to the highly sophisticated, establishing the extraordinary DNA of the Swiss watchmaking house and ensuring its impressive growth. Keen to preserve its traditional and cutting-edge expertise, and guided by its philosophy to "Be First, Different and Unique", the Swiss watchmaker is consistently ahead of the curve, through its innovations in materials (scratch-resistant Magic Gold, ceramics in vibrant colors, sapphire), and the creation of Manufacture movements (Unico, Meca-10, Tourbillon).
