Kick-off for the 2025 DTM Esports Championship
  • 32 qualified sim racers face off at the virtual Zandvoort circuit
  • Tim Jarschel aims to defend his title
  • Prize pool worth €50,000



Munich. The DTM is back in full throttle for 2025: The new season of the DTM Esports Championship kicks off on March 21. At the opening event, 32 of the world's best sim racers will compete in the virtual Zandvoort circuit. A total of 12 races at six events, spanning March to July, await the participants. The drivers who qualified for the series will compete for a prize pool of €50,000. The champion will also earn the chance to test a GT4 race car. The races will be broadcast with German and English commentary starting at 7:15 PM on the DTM YouTube channel.



Sim Racing Stars and Fresh Faces
At the two shootout events earlier this year, sim racers from around the globe had the chance to secure a spot in the 2025 DTM Esports Championship. The starting grid has shaped up to be an exciting mix of seasoned sim racing professionals, newcomers, and new teams. Returning this year is the 2024 champion, Tim Jarschel (Falken Simracing Team), who is eager to defend his title. Other notable contenders include Bence Banki (Dörr Esports), Emre Cihan, and Isaac Price (both Privateers), all strong challengers for the championship. The R8G e-Sports Team will also be represented by three drivers: Kaj de Bruin, Julian Klaffenböck, and Alessandro Ottaviani.



The season opener at Zandvoort presents a unique challenge for the drivers. With its blend of fast and slow corners and significant elevation changes, the track demands high levels of concentration and technical skill.

GT4 Test Drive for the Champion
In 2024, Tim Jarschel claimed the grand prize after an intense season. This year, the 2025 DTM Esports Champion will once again be rewarded with a real-world GT4 test drive. The runner-up will receive a KW suspension kit, while the third-place finisher will take home an Ascher Racing steering wheel.



In total, the €50,000 prize pool includes both cash and goods. There are also rewards in two additional categories: the Pole Position Award winner, based on performance across all 12 qualifying rounds, will receive a set of BBS wheels. The winners of the Fastest Lap Award—drivers achieving the quickest lap in the main race of each event—will win a DTM Limited Edition JBL Bluetooth Speaker.



New in 2025: The Community Cup
On every race day of the DTM Esports Championship, sim racers who haven’t qualified for the main championship will still have the opportunity to compete in the Community Cup. To honor the rich history of four decades of DTM, these participants will race on the same tracks as the professionals but in historic cars from different eras.

Before each DTM Esports event, RaceRoom will open a leaderboard, and the top 32 drivers will be invited to compete in the Community Cup race. These races will be streamed live as part of the DTM Esports Race Day broadcast.

RaceRoom Racing Experience - Georg
This update is all about high-octane fun, featuring two drift machines, two out of ordinary tracks, and a brand-new gymkhana playground. Whether you're shredding tires, battling in head-to-head duels, or conquering hillclimbs, this update will deliver its dose of pure fun.


New Cars – The Art of Controlled Chaos
Slide sideways with precision in two new drift-ready machines:

🏁 BMW E30 M3
This ‘80s icon sports custom wide wheel arches, a lowered stance, and aggressive bodywork by the Red Bull Driftbrothers—all designed to maximize drift control and style. Its classic lines are retained but amplified for modern performance. Channel motorsport history with every sideways slide.

🏁 BMW G82 M4
Futuristic and fearless, the Driftbrothers’ G82 M4 stands out with a striking body kit, massive aero components, and a stunning exhaust setup routed through the rear window area. Harness its turbocharged power as you carve the track with head-turning flair.

New Tracks – Challenge Yourself in Unique Racing Arenas
Take on fresh challenges with these brand-new racing environments:

🌲 Twin Forest (Duel Circuit)
Inspired by the Race of Champions format, this 5.1 km, 17-turn track is built for intense 1v1 duels in which each car starts in its own lane. Precision, skill, and nerves of steel will decide the victor.



⛰️ Genting Highlands
A legendary climb through the lush landscapes of Malaysia! This 12.6 km hillclimb features over 1000 meters of vertical gain. For the first time in RaceRoom, this hillclimb track allows multiplayer racing, even with the ability to switch lanes! On top of that dual lanes layout, the track also comes with a short hillclimb layout (featuring the top half of the climb), a full single lane layout, as well as a looped circuit up to a roundabout. Genting Highlands will be perfect for time attack, racing as well as drifting.



🏁 RaceRoom Raceway Drift Area
A gymkhana-style drifting playground designed to push your car control to the limit. Whether you're perfecting your slides or putting on a show, this is the place to do it!



Bonus Content!
FREE Macau Circuit Update
Experience improved visuals and refinements on this iconic street circuit.



Porsche Carrera Cup North America
The 42 official liveries of the 2024 season are now available for the Porsche 911 GT3 Cup (992)!
