VELOCIPEDE Posted January 2, 2017 Author Share Posted January 2, 2017 The Man Behind the Million Dollar Race - Luis Pachon - Cloud SportNext week the Visa Vegas E Race will be run and a driver will walk out of there with $200,000. The chances are pretty good that it will be one of ten alien sim racers that have earned there way into the race. Also going for the cash are 20 of the real life pro Formula E drivers. This is a good size prize for a race outside of Forumla One, Nascar or Indycar. However, for a sim race this is the biggest prize in history. 1- What is Cloud Sport?Cloud Sport is a technology startup created in Spain in 2016. The objective of this company, a pioneer in its sector, is to encourage the conversion of simracing to a professional activity. In spite of its youth, this company has already has gained the confidence of large international companies of the stature of the FIA Formula E Championship, SEAT Sport, Playseat and rFactor2.2- How did you get into this (organizing huge racing events)?I come from the world of technology; I have run other companies before, and I also experienced the world of competition from the position of co-driver. I have united my two worlds: technology and motorsport. After that, it was the promoters who also believed in it and made it possible for it to become a reality.3- How did the Visa Vegas E Race come to be?I posed the idea to the CEO of Formula E, Mr. Alejandro Agag, and -as he is a visionary and a person who knows how to do things and make them happen- he quickly understood and carried it out. Without him, we could not have done it. This post has been promoted to an article Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
