Statement regarding Online Challenge #2 results

“Santanagang“ was found to be guilty of glitch abuse during the second Online Challenge of the 2023 MotoGP™ eSport Pro Draft, and has subsequently been disqualified

There has been a change to the final standings of the second Online Challenge, with 26_Adrian now the holder of the fastest lap time from the European entrants.

The gamer santanagang, who had previously set the fastest time, was found to be in breach of glitch abusing in order to set a faster lap time during the Challenge. This abuse was believed to provide more traction in the wet conditions set during the Challenge, where games had to set the fastest time possible around the Silverstone Circuit using Maverick Viñales’ Aprilia RS-GP 23.

As a result, santanagang has been disqualified from the Draft Stage and his points accrued from the two Challenges until now have been deleted. 26_Adrian was the fastest gamer of Online Challenge #2 with a time of 2’03.336.

The course of action was followed as DORNA has a right to take decisions to guarantee the fair play and to ensure the spirit of the MotoGP™ eSport Championship is upheld.

After every Challenge, DORNA may check the laps, times and any other relevant data in order to check the fair development and competition.

The Third Online Challenge starts today and runs for five days until Sunday 16th July.
