PDC Racing League iRacing
SEASON 4 - One Night Winter Series
FAST & FURIOUS FOR ONE NIGHT ONLY WITH 3 x 20 MINUTE RACES
Our league runs in partnership with RS Components and its primary purpose is to enhance STEM learning and engagement.
Inclusivity is key, anyone can sim race and everyone can learn via the process. For many it is the first step to a role in Automotive, Motorsport,Engineering, Design and many other industries.
Car Setup sheets will be taken to primary school visits and the young persons cars will be raced on a live stream with feedback given on how the cars handle. What does harder or softer suspension do? How does tyre pressure affect tyres? What role do aerodynamics play? Who is your driver? Can your car win?
Get in touch for further information.
The league hosts some real racers, some sim racers and those who just enjoy being involved All are welcome to join and be part of an exciting community that seeks to support everyone within.

What a Night!
The racing was as fierce as ever with Knox and Hewitt the stand out drivers. Some bad luck and a new car model caught out Double Champ Dan Blake as new faces Melvin and Holman mixed it up with the rapid David Ward to add strength to the field.
Notable mentions to Ian Court and Kevin McGlone their pace really improving from last season.

Season 4 - Tables & Statistics
Drivers Standings
Another Season is over and we have a new CHAMPION. Chris Knox has always been rapid its just never quite come together for him. A strong fightback in Race 3, 3 fastest laps and 2 very close wins in Race 1 and 2 gave him the title by 3 points from the fierce Freddy Hewitt. James Holman, a debutant with the league taking 3rd.
21 Drivers took to the grid in Season 4
Team Standings
There was no teams title for Season 4 Winter Series, see below stats for Season 3. Teams will be back in Season 5.
It was the first time that the league had ran a teams championship. Team Orders were certainly in play throughout the season and Team FastR - Cheetah E-Sports came out on top with Hewitt and Ward proving too much for the rapid combination of Blake and Veltenaar

AND FINALLY…
We’re using our main race budget to pay for streaming and commentary to cover those costs.
There are only a couple of leagues paying for this that we know of and it feels like the right thing to do for self-employed members of the motorsport community.
The league remains free to enter – iRacing has plenty of paywalls of its own – and all are welcome to continue to compete for free! But if you feel you and/or your partners benefit from the stream (make sure we have all the info to ensure you do!) and only if feel able and inclined to support us in running these events, then please consider supporting us.
It’s a pay-what-you-like, one-off system – no subscription.
