For this week's Le Mans Ultimate event, we head to the temple of speed in LMGT3 machinery! Take your pick and buckle up for one of the most infamous, and therefore competitive, combinations in sim racing!

If you love your GT racing, then the classic Monza and GT3 combination will likely be familiar territory for you, all the more reason to try and stamp your authority on our competitive grid!

Magnificent Monza​

Italy's Temple of Speed is a true time capsule, a look back at motorsports' valiant yet tragic history. The circuit has decades of history soaked into the timeless tarmac, with iconic corners such as the Curva Grande, the Curva di Lesmo, and the Variante Ascari.

Constructed initially all the way back in 1922, Monza was the world's third purpose-built racing circuit after the now defunct Brooklands in Surrey, England and the infamous Indianapolis in the USA. This construction date makes the circuit the oldest in mainland Europe. The circuit's banked turns were initially built to be 21 degrees. However, in 1955, they were rebuilt with banking just under 40 degrees! That angle is equivalent to an 80% gradient...

Drivers, both in sim and reality, enjoy the history and the experience of racing at Monza. It is a circuit like no other, and you can run it with us tomorrow, Tuesday the 15th, by signing up below!
