The 2024 FIA Motorsport Games is officially underway, with participants from the Rally, Electric Street and Esports disciplines beginning their preparations in Valencia, Spain.
The shift to track activity followed Wednesday night’s opening ceremony in Valencia, which brought 646 athletes representing 82 nations to the City of Arts & Sciences to launch the event’s third edition.
With the festivities complete, Thursday saw engines fired up for the first time at Circuit Ricardo Tormo, where a selection of Rally hopefuls staged their Shakedown, Practice and Qualifying.
The Esports competitors were also busy at the City of Arts & Sciences. Esports GT and Esports F4 were both in action with a series of Qualifying sessions ahead of Quarter-Final contests on Friday.
Flying the Nigerian flag high at the competition, Kamto Chukwureh made it to the Quarter-finals of Esports F4 (Formula 4 Racing) and Femi Olaoye made it to GT Racing Esports quarterfinals. Both athletes will continue their journey in the competition on Friday 25th October at the City of Arts & Sciences Museum where they’ll compete with other qualifying athletes from other countries.
