How this Chennai boy’s love for eSports secured him top place at Virtual Racing Championship
The Hindu
It does not come as a surprise when Amith Kutti says he intends to pursue a career in motorsport. The 17-year-old student of Chennai’s Don Bosco High School was announced the winner of Virtual Racing Championship, an online racing event wherein sim racers, as they are called, are scrutinised for their driving skills and their ability to stay focused while racing, in a virtual environment.
Organised by Volkswagen Motosport India, the inaugural edition saw 28 participants competing in 12 races held at five international tracks — Imola Circuit, Monza Circuit and ACI Vallelunga Circuit in Italy, Nürburgring and Spa in Germany — that were virtually simulated, in a bid to recreate the ‘thrilling’ atmosphere that is normally associated with the sport.
