On Saturday, June 1, the 52nd annual Nürburgring 24 Hours race, one of the most famous in the world of motorsports, kicked off. After their triumphant debut in 2022 and a break last year, the Rockstar Racing team (also known as Viken Motorsport), partially made up of GTA developers, took part again. Unfortunately, they couldn’t repeat their previous result — they finished 84th overall (out of 130+ cars) and second in their class, just 2 seconds behind the winner. While there was a chance that the competitor could be penalized, it didn’t happen. Nevertheless, this was an excellent achievement considering the challenging weather conditions on the track — the competition had to be interrupted at times due to heavy fog.
