The Virtual World Series by Renault is back this week at RaceDepartment, with season four of the Clio Cup. Round one will be set in the heart of England; hosted by Croft Circuit, on Friday 24th April 2015 and streamed live over the web.
The format will be two back-to-back races. Race one will be a sprint for a maximum of 15 minutes, whilst race two will last slightly longer - up to 25 minutes - and feature a reversed grid for the top ten finishers from the first race.

Who are the favorites?
The series is poised to be a belter. Season 3 champion, Christian Michel, shall be returning with MC Racing to defend his title, and MadCape Racing's Jimi Hughes will be doing the best he can to be reacquainted with the trophy having lost the opportunity to retain it last year. However, it's not going to be an easy or straightforward fight, with a number of other hopefuls trying to spoil the party and get the top spot!
Don't forget to check out the the full entry list of teams and drivers, as well as further details about the upcoming race.
