The proceeds will be used for a good cause. Once a week, fans of the Audi brand and SimRacing professionals will be competing against the six Audi DTM drivers: Lo\u00efc Duval, Jamie Green, Nico M\u00fcller, Robin Frijns, Ren\u00e9 Rast and Mike Rockenfeller.<\/strong>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_single_image image=\"1183\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\"][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text el_class=\"article-copy\"]\u201cSince there are no real races happening at the moment, because of the corona crisis, SimRacing is experiencing an incredible boom,\u201d says the 2013 DTM champion. \u201cWe are deliberately going our own way: #RaceHome is focusing on sports cars with electric drive and is therefore in line with Audi\u2019s focus topic in the change of mobility. We have decided on a console game because we can reach a particularly large community in this way.\u201d\r\n\r\nPlayStation Network members have the opportunity to compete against the Audi DTM stars on #RaceHome. They can win a spot on the grid each week by developing and publishing a design for the Audi e-tron Vision Gran Turismo in conjunction with #AudiTogether and #WeStayHome. The most creative design will win. The jury consists of the six Audi DTM drivers.[\/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=\"1184\" img_size=\"full\" alignment=\"center\"][vc_column_text el_class=\"article-copy\"]#RaceHome wants to generate as many donations as possible to be used for charity projects within the motorsport family. \u201cThere are many freelancers in motorsport who have lost their income from one day to the next and are fearing for their own existence,\u201d says Rockenfeller. That\u2019s why it will be possible to bid for a spot on the grid every week.\r\n\r\nAll of the races of the #RaceHome charity racing series can be seen on the free live streaming channel at www.twitch.tv\/visionrcco. The first race is on Tuesday, 21 April at 8 p.m. (CEST).[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]"},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Audi factory driver Mike Rockenfeller has initiated a virtual racing series under the motto #RaceHome<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[60,50,69],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1181"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1181"}],"version-history":[{"count":14,"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1181\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":1742,"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1181\/revisions\/1742"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1181"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1181"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.audimiddleeast.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1181"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
