On this episode of Drive To Wynn, host Justin Bell welcomes Darren Cox, creator of GT Academy and CEO of The Race Media. Darren explains how simulators play a vital role in modern race preparations, and an especially critical role in this weekend's Las Vegas Grand Prix. With no prior experience on the track, teams & drivers will be looking to find any advantage possible in advance. Darren also hints that cold tyres and brakes could lead to some crazy moments as the inaugural Las Vegas GP will be held in the 50-60 degree range on a damp track.

Justin thinks this race sets up well for Lando Norris, as he's been a champion of sims and seems to be confident in the Vegas spotlight. Darren believes if Lando ends up atop the podium, then it could catapult him to becoming the series' most popular driver.

Follow, rate & review with any comments & questions for Justin - we’d love to hear from you!

Drive To Wynn is filmed exclusively at the Wynn Las Vegas inside the Blue Wire Studios.
