Mercedes-Benz has added a new attraction to their Berlin branch, introducing the Mercedes-Benz Formula One simulator. Build by Simforce Emotions, the simulator uses a full-scale F1 car model placed on a motion platform. Watchful observers will instantly notice that the simulator uses a product from the sim racing community as a wheel built by Team ARC is used.

Mercedes’ + GT5 + VisionRacer VR3
|
We were honoured when Mercedes selected VisionRacer as their platform of
choice to go with their new SLS-AMG supercar. The Mercedes Facebook game is very cool, so check it out and get "the word" out. With the big hitters like Mercedes seeing what connection the virtual driving audience brings it benefits all. The more buzz Mercedes gets and better, identifies specifically, the more they listen. How would you like to be part of the Mercedes Virtual F1 team? Here is what Jordan over at GTPlanet had to say.... "Since we first learned that the company’s new SLS-AMG would grace GT5’s cover, the company has been increasingly open about their affiliation with the game. First it was the showcased GT5 demo at their headquarter’s museum and dealers across Europe, but now they’re expanding use of the game as they integrate it with their international marketing efforts, as seen in Mercedes’ new Facebook game “Behind the Speed”. This simple game comes with a lucrative prize: a free copy of Gran Turismo 5 and your very own VisionRacer VR3 driving rig. The competition is open to everyone until July 12th, so head on over to Facebook and give it your best shot. At the very least, perhaps it will help keep you busy until Sony’s E3 press conference – now just a few short weeks away…" |
