In the last of our Blancpain GT Sprint Series / Sim Racing Expo videos, we take a tour of the grid and speak to the eventual GT Series Endurance champion., Andrea Caldarelli.
The Sim Racing Expo over in Germany was an incredible celebration of the virtual sport we all love, housed in the fantastic facilities at the German Nürburgring Grand Prix Circuit and held during the weekend of the Blancpain GT Sprint Series race, both the Expo and the on track racing really did a wonderful job of representing the best of both real and virtual motorsport.
Whilst the main aim of RaceDepartment's visit to Germany would be to bring you the sim racing news and reviews from the expo itself, we couldn't resist a look around the paddock and the chance to take in some racing action featuring these incredible GT3 machines.
We were fortunate enough to be granted some wonderful access to the pits and paddock as well as a very cool bit of time out on the grid itself, where we had the opportunity to see the cars and stars up close before the beginning of the first race of the day on Sunday, the Blancpain GT Sprint Series qualification race.
Now seeing as we had a camera and microphone handy, we thought it would be fun to capture a bit of the excitement and atmosphere of the race build up, and while we were at it have a go to see if Martin Brundle needs to watch his back on the grid walk in future years.. not too sure how successful that was, but either way it was an incredibly cool experience, and one I hope you enjoy watching in our brief highlight video below:
How awesome was that?!?
