The rumours have been around for a while and are only increasing. It really seems to be coming: a sim race sometime in the next few days. Indeed, an observant Reddit user has noticed that Max Verstappen has started a three-hour 'Team Redline' practice session today.

In rFactor 2, formula cars from the lower classes are often driven and not F1 cars. Verstappen started up a 'free practice' on the platform with F3 cars on Thursday.

So it looks like we will still be able to enjoy Verstappen in the coming days. Whether any other Formula 1 drivers plan to join the upcoming sim race is not known.

Sim race at virtual Imola soon?
