Simracing For Holland’s András Király took the first-ever iRacing GrandAM Premier Series championship title, rewarding his dominant season performance.
The iRacing GrandAM Premier Series consisted of a 10 race season with races every two to three weeks, starting in February and finishing in August. With the possibility of driving two-races per event, the best 9 week results would account for the final score.
András took the chequered flag in top spot 15 times during the season. Enough to dominantly take the title in the Riley Daytona Prototype class. His nearest rival, American Morgan Sowerby found himself 208 points behind after the engines went silent at Mid-Ohio.
The Mid-Ohio race itself turned out to be a small deception for the SFH driver. While comfortably leading the 90 minute race, András suffered from a disconnect with only two laps to go. A quick reconnect put him a lap down in 5th place. Despite this last-minute bad luck, the season statistics are still impressive: 15 wins out of 17 races, starting all races from pole and leading 1121 out of 1230 laps.
With the first-ever GrandAM Premier Series trophy being shipped to the Netherlands, András earned his place in the iRacing record books. Look out for another shot at the title next year!
