Why Roborace can be good for motorsport
Roborace has put driverless cars on the motorsport agenda, but what do racing drivers think of the idea? LUCAS DI GRASSI shares his thoughts, which you might find surprisingly positive
Roborace is the newly announced race series for autonomous racing cars. You might think that it will start a new era of emotionless motorsport or, more likely, fail and disappear after the investor runs out of cash.
In my opinion, neither of those fates will happen.
The guy behind it, Denis Sverdlov, is a cool, crazy-smart Russian, who I had the pleasure to meet at a Formula E race. He has the three Bs needed: balls, brains and budget. So he just might combine what's needed to succeed and turn Roborace into a fully developed technology race series.
