The Aston GP event brings up a huge challenge for all teams

In season III the team of Mercury Racing has the best requirements for the periodic repetition of the 24h win. Greatest opponent of them are SK Gaming and #low-racing. SK-Gaming, the former team of ocrana, wanna break the habit of no win in the past with their first race-victory in the MoE. The german team of #low-racing, approximately under the flag of ID-Gaming, returned back to their roots in november and catch up to the top.

New GT2-Class celebrates first 24h-event
The inaugural of the GT2-Class in the MoE was a milestone to step forward to the existing multi-class format of endurance leagues. The new GT2 was founded with some limitations on the basement of the GTR-Class, where all cars get an air restriction up to 25%. Only the FZR was balanced due to the master server balancing with only 20% restriction. After three races the team of CoRe.Racing shows impressive stability and leads the ranking with two victorys and one second place. Close behind them the second team of the GT1-class-leader Mercury Racing shows up with two second places and one victory. Almost certain both teams will fight for the win, but two teams are lurking for a chance to get big points. Triple 7 Racing and TEAMSPORT-ONLINE, who complete the top four in the GT2, wanna break through the domination of Mercury and CoRe. After the last race Triple 7 Racing wanna make their connection more stable. TEAMSPORT-ONLINE keep up their good teamwork with a clean statistic without any penalties or disconnections.
