Season 3 opens with 10 named Team Principals across the IMS grid. The assignments apply from Singapore, covering a nine-round campaign in which all five divisions are active from the start.
SachouYTB leads Alpine, Nebulan187 takes Aston Martin, zoolander83 heads Ferrari, JDJT3593 leads Haas and Vvromz is responsible for Kick Sauber.
The other half of the Season 3 grid
Webbah87 leads McLaren, kelenic 6233 takes Mercedes, TheMekanic17 heads Red Bull, ForestalWaif1 leads VCARB and JGelinas11 is assigned to Williams.
Every team has one opening assignment and no badge is left vacant. Administrative tidiness is rarely the dramatic part of motor racing, which is precisely why it is useful to establish before the points begin making everything less tidy.
Five divisions make every Sunday a team-wide examination
Unlike the previous campaign’s staggered introduction of E2, Season 3 scores D1, D2, D3, E1 and E2 from Round 1. Each principal therefore begins with the complete competitive footprint rather than acquiring another championship halfway through.
The calendar runs from Singapore to Las Vegas in nine rounds. These are the 10 names attached to the teams before any victory, points swing or Mystery Race can make the neat pre-season list look gloriously inadequate.
