Michael Niemas from Team Niemas Racecars eSports became the first virtual champion in RCCO history. The successful slot racer and model car artist laid the foundation for his eventual title win with six straight victories at the start of the season. As the season progressed, teammate Stefan Waschow emerged as his fiercest competitor. With seven wins, Waschow secured the runner-up championship. Season 1 of the RCCO E-Sport Series was contested in 2021 with the Audi Vision Gran Turismo on the PlayStation before the series switched to the eX ZERO and the rFactor 2 platform in 2021.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
