Circuit Zandvoort

Intense and Close Battles in Porsche Cup at Circuit Zandvoort | Race Recap

This past race at Circuit Zandvoort was nothing short of exhilarating! Starting from 16th position, I pushed hard and managed to cross the finish line in 14th place, despite encountering an incident along the way. With a Strength of Field (SoF) of 3395, the competition was fierce, and I’m pleased to have gained +0.2 in Safety Rating, even if I did lose 7 iRating points.

The race itself was incredibly tight and packed with action. I spent the entire race battling it out with Mateo from Mexico, who was driving at a very similar pace to mine. It was a constant back-and-forth, with me glued to his bumper, but I couldn’t quite find the gap to overtake him. The intensity of being so close throughout the race made it one of the most thrilling experiences I’ve had on iRacing.

All of this was experienced on my D-Box Full Motion Simulator with a 57-inch monitor, which makes each race feel almost lifelike—a big part of why I’m so passionate about this hobby. The immersion it provides is second to none.

I hope you found the race as exciting as I did! The tight battles, especially with Mateo, kept me on the edge of my seat, and I’m already looking forward to next week’s season finale. Be sure to stay tuned!

Hey there, fellow speed enthusiasts! I’m Philipp, your SimRacing aficionado, and on this virtual race track, I find my therapeutic escape. iRacing is not just a game; it’s my medicine. As soon as I ignite that engine and immerse myself in the cockpit, the world fades away, leaving only focus and the thrilling hum of the car. I cherish these moments, and I hope my followers experience the same adrenaline rush through my videos. Join me on this high-octane journey, where every turn is a chance for excitement! Dreaming big, my ultimate life goal is a Porsche Experience Weekend at the Nürburgring, surrounded by like-minded individuals, whether in a Porsche Cup or a GT3 RS—I’m not picky, but a Cup car would be the icing on the cake. With an instructor by my side, of course, and the best part? All of it for free. I know, it sounds absurd, but hey, dreams are meant to be wild. Weekdays are dedicated to training, squeezing in sessions whenever time allows. Thankfully, it’s not an everyday affair; otherwise, it might lose its charm. Come weekends, you’ll catch me uploading a weekly race, either on a Saturday or Sunday. Buckle up and enjoy the ride on my channel—because here, we race with a dash of humor and a whole lot of fun!
