The newest class in the NEO Endurance Series will crown its first champion later this month in the season-ending RaceSpot 24 Hours of Le Mans, and thanks to the double points wrinkle for the longest race of the season, we don’t yet know who will take home the title. Of course, there is a heavy […]
Three of the hottest teams in iRacing entered last weekend’s NEO Endurance Series race at Spa hoping to add another highlight to their impressive beginning to 2019, and they would all do battle in the GT class. Both Williams JIM Esports and MSI eSports have been among the leaders in GT world championship series qualifying, […]
For some race teams, running anywhere but the front of the field is a cause for concern. Others seem at their best when they’re charging through the pack to get back in contention. The most well-rounded teams are equally comfortable with either approach. That has been the case for the points-leading AVA Vervatic team in […]
The giants of this season’s P1 class in the NEO Endurance Series have been Thrustmaster Mivano Racing. In the first four races, no one could quite put together a complete enough race to take them down. It would take a mixture of fast but clean driving, smart strategy, and likely a head-to-head battle with Mivano […]
Perhaps no one feared NEO’s return to Interlagos more than the GT field. Two faster prototype classes promised to make their lives difficult at the shortest track on the schedule, and based on past history at the circuit, contact seemed inevitable for the slowest cars on the grid. While GT cars were the victims of […]
As NEO’s new middle class this season, P2 teams at Interlagos must have felt the same way as Stealers Wheel described in their 1972 hit song: Clowns to the left of me, jokers to the right. Here I am, stuck in the middle with you. At the shortest track on the schedule, HPDs found themselves […]
Being the fastest car on track sometimes comes at a price. At a short circuit such as Interlagos, the top prototype teams could have passed dozens or even a hundred or more slower cars than their mid-pack competitors over a six-hour race. For the Thrustmaster Mivano Racing #3 P1 team that has dominated this NEO […]
It was already perhaps the most feared track on the schedule due to its short length and endless traffic, but the recent addition of day-night transitions has added yet another element of suspense leading up to this weekend’s 6 Hours of Interlagos. In this race preview, we look at the challenges of this race and […]
The season-opening 6 Hours of Sebring may have left more questions than answers in NEO’s deep GT class after CoRe SimRacing drove its Ford GT from the mid-pack to victory lane. What about the Porsche stranglehold on the class? How did the top-qualifying teams let the race slip away? At least it seemed like series […]
The departure of the top HPD teams from past NEO Endurance Series seasons left a void in the P2 class in search of a new frontrunner. After two races so far this season, one team has separated itself from the pack as the favorite at the pointy end of the field. From the beginning of […]
