Max Verstappen Says Karting is Pricing Out Talent, Explains Why Team Redline Matters
Max Verstappen says his involvement in Team Redline came from a concern he identified during his own racing: real-world karting has become so expensive that talent is being priced out, so sim racing can be a credible pathway into paid careers. In an interview on the Up to Speed podcast recorded during Bahrain testing, Verstappen explained why the project is so important to him.
“People switch to sim racing and I see a lot of kids and drivers, they try to, through the sim racing world, make a career. They all dream of racing in real life. And I had that similar story with my driver [Chris Lulham] that is now in GT3. He did go-karting. He did very well. But then basically that’s where the road stops.”
Inside Melbourne F2 and F3 Driving Simulator Training at Rodin Motorsport | Dynisma DMG-1
Rodin Motorsport provides an inside look at its pre-season preparation using the Dynisma DMG-1 full-motion simulator, installed at the team’s newly unveiled Driver Performance Centre in Hampshire, UK.
As the drivers arrive in Melbourne for the opening round of the 2026 FIA Formula 2 and FIA Formula 3 Championships, this video captures the final week of structured simulator work leading into the season opener.
With physical testing in F2 and F3 restricted under current regulations, high-fidelity simulation plays a critical role in race preparation. The Dynisma DMG-1 is currently supporting Rodin’s FIA Formula 2 and FIA Formula 3 programmes, with future integration planned for F1 Academy as part of the team’s wider driver development structure.
The video features FIA Formula 2 driver Alex Dunne alongside FIA Formula 3 drivers Christian Ho, Brando Badoer and Pedro Clerot, as well as Emma Felbermayr, representing Audi Revolut F1 Team in F1 Academy, operated by Rodin Motorsport. Together, they work through qualifying simulations, setup refinement and race-weekend procedures ahead of Melbourne.
Is This The Most Realistic Car in Sim Racing? (Porsche Cup Champion Review)
Daniel Morad evaluates the Porsche Porsche 992.2 Cup Car in iRacing.
” I’m a 2016 Porsche Cup Champion, and after driving GT cars professionally, this is the most realistic sim car I’ve ever experienced. The new Porsche 992.2 Cup Car in iRacing completely changed my expectations. I called the old Cup Car one of the worst driving cars on the service… but this one might be the complete opposite.”
