RETRO CUP 2024

RETRO CUP 24 takes the chequered flag!



Nearly three months of intense multiclass vintage racing are now over!

With the 2 hours of Westhill de la Sarthe, the Retro Cup 24 season hit its climax with all the championships being decided in the very last race.

Do you want to relive the last race?




This year, more than 50 different drivers took the challenge: cars were wrecked, dreams were shattered and tyres were burnt, at the edge of grip in some of the most brutal tracks in Live for Speed.

Congratulations, Retro Drivers, you've made it to the final chequered flag.




"Faster, faster, faster, until the thrill of speed overcomes the fear of death"
Hunter Thompson







Three classes, three brand new Retro champions now stoods at the top of the podium, ready to receive their awards.



PROTOTYPE CHAMPION || ZFRL THEHEMULI

From Finland, our new Prototype Champion is the star of Zafiralis, Thehemuli.
A complete driver, capable of pushing every kind of car to the limit: last season he was crowned champion of the Hypercar class, driving a Ford GT 40 LM.
This year, he decided to reach the Top Class, challenging the best Prototype drivers on the field, and he delivered.
3 victories, never off the podium, Thehemuli pushed his ZFRL Mclarry to the limit in each track.

He found fierce competition tho: Mazdarati was his strongest competitor. The Dutch legend managed to take the challenge to the finn by taking 3 race wins and multiple podiums, the two often fought closely for the race wins on track, despite racing two very different type of prototype cars.

Final place of the Prototype podium by LORENZO of Race Green.
The championship host managed to take his first Prototype win in Retro Cup by dominating the Aston Grand Prix, and was on the podium in two more occasions, despite losing lots of points due to technical issues.








GT PRO CHAMPION || RG^NOSLE

The man from Iceland, one of Race Green's latest signings is proving his worth on the tracks.
NOSLE already sowed great signs of speed last season, but this year he turned up in championship winning mode since the very beginning of the championship.
He scored 2 wins and multiple podiums to become Retro Cup champion in the GT's: who can forget his heated battles against B2R Twincam and the final duel in Westhill de la Sarthe against his main title rival, B2R Rejekt.

And it's Rejekt of B2R who takes silver medal in the championship standings: the Born to Race driver was competitive all season long, often proving to be a tough opponent even for NOSLE.
The 0 points scored in Round 4 by him were probably decisive in the championship fight, but it's been one hell of a season anyway!

Final place of the podium for [MRC] Jsk.
The Master Race car driver just didn't score points in a troublesome Round 1, but he soon came back and scored consistently in most of the other events of the season.
The podium achieved in Aston, finishing second, was his best result of the season.







ROAD CLASS CHAMPION || B2R STIEFLA

Stiefla, The austrian talent of Born To Race takes the crown in Road Class, the tighest class of this season of Retro Cup 24.
3 wins, multiple podiums, and a forced switch between the Am Phoenix to the Porsche Cammera half-season, Stiefla overcame all the difficulties!
It's been a season of great close battles in this class, between the "Fab 4", Stiefla himself, SG Madjester, RG^M@CI3K and S.Martin.

These 4 battled for every inch of tarmac, from the bends of Westhill to the streets of Berlin: the championship was decided in the finale of Westhill de la Sarthe, where Stiefla sealed his P1 with a podium finish behind S.Martin.

P2 in the standings for SG Madjester: a fierce competitor, able to take three stunning wins and multiple pole positions, Madjester pushed his orange Piran Firefly 200 to the absolute limit, often overcoming the speed deficit with his cornering skills.

Final place on the podium for RG^M@CI3K: the pole legend of Race Green, also known as the Porsche Whisperer, as he took the first 2 Retro Cup titles with this car.
This was a thougher season for him: the speed was there most of the times, but some unlucky technical issues and some mistakes prevented M@CI3K from taking the third Retro Cup title in a row.





Here's a look at the final Retro Cup 24 Final Championship standings.
