Just three months on from the nail-biting conclusion of the 2019 MotoGP™ eSport Championship and the season is back and better than ever with the first stage of the 2020 Pro Draft set to kick off on Thursday 5th of March.
Set to coincide with the start of the 2020 MotoGP™ season in Qatar, the first of three Online Challenges comes from the Losail International Circuit, where gamers will play as the sporting legend Valentino Rossi aboard the Monster Energy Yamaha M1 in the Online ‘Time-Attack’ session.
The challenge runs from 5th at 11am CET to 8th March at 7pm CET .
Almost all options are pre-set for the Online Challenge, and only the fastest lap will be recorded, no matter how many times the ‘Time Attack’ session is completed over the course of the Challenge period. Ideal trajectory and rewind will be unavailable during time-trials in the premier-class - meaning pure gaming skill is what’s required to beat the fastest in the world. The machine and rider are also pre-selected and designed specifically for each Challenge period.
When competing in each Online Challenge, gamers will be classified in one of two categories: those from Europe and those from the Rest of the World. The gamers setting the fastest times will be awarded points. At the end of the third Online Challenge the 16 gamers with the most points in the European classification and the six from the Rest of the World classification will make up the 22 riders that qualify for the Draft Selection with 11 of those guaranteed a spot in the Global Series!
