We all need to rest, even when there is still so much to do, right? This weekend I took some downtime this weekend, driving the Audi RS3 LMS TCR for the BoosTED Motorsports esports team. The sim racing community came together to support and raise awareness of mental health by participating in a multi-class 24 hour team race around Zolder in Belgium, raising funds for #Mind mental health. Organised by Jimmy Broadbent, popular Youtuber and simracer who sadly lost his father to depression.
799 laps were turned, and we brought the car over the line 7th in class. And the best part? Charity target was £1000. Well exceeded, with £34457 raised for Mind. I guess that about pays for a counsellor for a year. Incredible what happens when a community comes together.
