WSC and iRacing announce partnership to bring TCR to iRacing

WSC and iRacing are pleased to announce a long-term partnership that will add the TCR Series branding to the world’s premier motorsport simulation. As part of the agreement, iRacing’s four current TCR touring car models— the Audi RS 3 LMS, Hyundai Elantra N, Hyundai Veloster N, and Honda Civic Type R — will all have the TCR branding added to them, and their standalone series will be renamed the iRacing TCR Virtual Challenge.

“We couldn’t be more excited to announce our partnership with WSC to add TCR to iRacing,” said iRacing president Tony Gardner. “TCR is globally recognized as the standard for touring car racing, and the four TCR vehicles already in iRacing have proven to be very popular with racers of all skill levels from around the world. TCR is also very active in esports with their own events, making the alignment an even more natural fit. We’re excited to work with them to bring the TCR license to iRacing and expand what is already a very popular discipline on the sim. We’re looking forward to many great years of virtual racing to come!” 

Marcello Lotti, WSC President said: “We are proud of this new partnership with iRacing because it will give a crucial contribution to further strengthen the image of TCR competition in North America. On top of this, the partnership with such an important platform will be appreciated from all TCR fans around the world who are interested in SIM racing activities.”

iRacers can expect to see the TCR branding added to iRacing in the coming months. In addition, any future TCR cars to join iRacing’s roster of more than 120 officially licensed vehicles will carry the TCR branding as well, and further conversations about additional ways to expand the partnership will be happening in the coming months.
