AQIRYS Racing Aims For Success In Racing League Romania With Victor Nicolae & Alex Cascatău

As a former champion of Romania's biggest sim racing championship - Racing League Romania, Alex Cascatău has had some challenging seasons after tasting initial success in the series. The latest transition to a new simulation platform, with a more realistic physics engine, gives hope that the Romanian racer can once again mount a title campaign as he joins Victor Nicolae in the newly-formed AQIRYS Racing outfit.

The new season will be contested across 10 rounds in Assetto Corsa Competizione, ranging from 1 hours to 4 hours fin length. As the format is being tweaked to mandate two drivers per car, Alex hopes to use his real-life endurance racing experience to gain the edge over the competition. The entire field will use BMW's M4 GT4, with races set to be broadcast live on BMW Romania's Facebook page as well as on national television channels.

Two former champions of the series are teaming up to aim for the title: Victor Nicolae and Alex Cascatău will race together for the first time in a season-long program under the Aqirys banner. Sharing the same analytical approach and theoretical knowledge of vehicle dynamics, it seemed an obvious fit. Nicolae stated: ”I am thrilled to put in place the right procedures and express my work ethic towards the ideal setup”, to which Cascatău added: ”moving towards a more realistic simulation platform allows a convergence between real and virtual that we can turn into our advantage. I truly believe we can challenge for this championship. I'd like to thanks AQIRYS for their involvement in sim racing and their constant support throughout this campaign.”
