Rob King was instrumental in getting Digital Motorsports to where it is – a place where it’s successful enough to have been just acquired by Canadian investors ESE Entertainment – and is now starting to look beyond the conventional.

Recently, Digital Motorsports helped to run an event for Charles Hurst Ferrari in Belfast, where people who made a charitable donation could use one of the simulators to set lap-times in a simulated Ferrari racing car. That’s working with the most storied brand in racing, but it’s still at the smaller end of what’s possible.
