The affable American is aiming to create a professional motorsport career and has already collected silverware in junior series following a jump from sim racing.Max Esterson doesn’t show it, but there’s an additional weight of expectation on his shoulders compared to some other competitors.
, his career path shuns traditional logic that dictates that you need a decade of karting before jumping into single-seaters. All eyes from the motorsport paddock are on the 20-year-old Manhattanite to see if such a route is viable, meanwhile, those who count virtual racing as a hobby require a talisman to prove just how competitive their favourite scene is.
“I realised I was quite good on iRacing. I started practising more and taking it seriously. By around 2018 and 2019 I reached a professional level in the GT3-based series they had at the time, and I also participated in major endurance events.” But, as you’ll note, these were all successes born from well-funded competitions with the explicit aim of proving virtual drivers could succeed in motorsport. Esterson and his family are doing it their own way, finding sponsors and securing seats on the single-seater ladder.
