Formula One has evolved over the years; now teams aren’t just focusing on actual racing, but also on the virtual world. Every current team on the grid has an Esports team, which provides for some intense fights in the virtual world. The most recent winner is Dani Moreno, a driver from Mercedes.

The Esports driver was starting on the grid from fifth place and took the chequered flag in the virtual race.

A new winner for Mercedes in the world of Esports

The Silver Arrows have always cheered for Lewis Hamilton or Valtteri Bottas whenever they won a race. But with times changing in the world of F1, teams also take part in Esports. The Brackley-based squad was over the moon when Moreno took his first win in the championship.

Currently, the Silver Arrows lead the pro championship with 191 points to their name. With three more virtual races to go before the end of the season, Mercedes hope to come out on top.

Back-to-back wins for Hamilton

Outside the virtual world, it is Hamilton who has bagged the most recent wins for the Brackley-based squad. At the Brazilian Grand Prix, the 7-time world champion displayed an excellent drive as he zipped around Interlagos, beating rival Max Verstappen to take home the chequered flag.

At the most recent Grand Prix in Qatar, Hamilton took the pole position and was aiming for another win. The Brit was true to his word and defeated the Red Bull prodigy once again; bringing the gap to just eight points in the driver’s championship.

With two more races to go, the Toto Wolff-led team will hope that Lewis can beat Max and claim his eighth title in Formula One. What is your prediction for this year’s title fight? Let us know in the comments below.
