Developing a new car is always a huge project and as you can probably guess, it's all about keeping your secrets, which often makes it hard for sim developers to get their hands on newly released racecars. R D: How did this type of relationship come to fruition for Studio 397, this level of access at such a crucial stage of (real car) development must be unprecedented in sim racing? Who knows, maybe we see someone using that advantage to then go on and win on the real track? The BMW M2 CS Racing is a perfect example for an exciting cup car and even though we are sure that the drivers in the physical world will love it, for example in VLN, simracers will have the upper hand for now, being able to jump behind the wheel of BMW's newest race car right now. MO: It is indeed and we are proud that BMW decided to work with us for this special occasion. R D: It must be a pretty special feeling letting sim racers get access to the car before the real deal even hits the circuit in anger for the first time? The german premium brand breathes motorsport and is an excellent partner to recreate the pure experience of driving such race cars. So we had established a partnership earlier, that we now take to the next level to bring the most accurate BMW race car to date into simracing. MO: Yes, we did! As you know, we already feature several remarkable BMW race cars in rFactor 2, the M8 GTE and M6 GT3 and of course their Formula E car. R D: Massive news today, a new BMW racecar and it’s coming to rFactor 2 straight away! You have had a close working relationship with BMW for the M2 CS Racing I understand? With such an interesting collaboration between a simulation development team such as Studio 397 and a major road and race car manufacturer the likes of BMW, we thought it would be good opportunity to run a quick Q&A discussion with Studio 397’s head man, Offermans
