The partnership extension, which began in 2017, will see the two brands continue to blur the lines between virtual and real-world racing and create a more accessible racing experience. Logitech supported McLaren Shadow during their Constructors’ and Drivers’ Championship victories in the 2022 F1 Esports Series.
As part of the extension, the Logitech McLaren G Challenge will return for another exciting sim racing season at the end of this year. The Logitech McLaren G Challenge will see individuals continue to compete for unique and money-can’t-buy prizes – including driver meet-and-greets and other exclusive experiences.
Matt Dennington, Co-Chief Commercial Officer, McLaren Racing, said:
Sim racing continues to go from strength to strength, so we’re thrilled to be extending our partnership with Logitech and continue to create a robust experience both for our McLaren Shadow Team and the more than 100,000 competitors who have taken part in the Logitech McLaren G Challenge to date.
Robin Piispanen, Global Head of Simulation & Console, Logitech G, said:
For years, McLaren has been a critical partner in the success of the G Challenge, helping to elevate prizing by supporting our grand prize race experience and sharing the event with millions of racing fans worldwide. This collaboration underscores sim racing as a gateway to the sport and helps Logitech G achieve its goal of bringing heart-pounding, competitive simulation experiences to more homes than ever before.
