The 25-year-old German game developer had already achieved two podium finishes in World eX earlier this season and showed a blistering pace around the fast virtual city street circuit of Maastricht. The WRT driver won the Quarter Final of the ESPORTS racers and also the Semi Final, benefitting from a huge Turn 1 pileup behind him, triggered by Patrick Long Esports’ Henry Drury.
Five-time eX Prix winner Lasse Sørensen was also involved in the first-corner incident but miraculously able to continue and make another appearance in a World eX Final. The Dane had made a rare mistake in Qualifying when he inadvertently hit the escape key on his computer leaving him without a valid time.
