Where it started
Virtually Entertained was founded in 2018 at Silverstone, the home of British motorsport. We started with a simple idea: bring proper racing simulation to events, and run the whole thing so the organiser doesn’t have to.
Today we run one of the UK’s largest mobile fleets of networked racing simulators: 16 F1-style sims and 2 GT sims that can race head to head on one live leaderboard, plus the Batak reaction board made famous by F1 driver training.
Our simulators can carry your brand from seat decals to full wraps, which is why brands like Mercedes AMG Petronas F1 and Peugeot have trusted us with their events.
Our story
Independent and owner-run
Virtually Entertained is owned and run by the same four people who founded it in 2018, and you’ll still find them at events rather than behind desks. Between them the directors cover the engineering that keeps 18 simulators race-ready, the operations that get them into venues across the UK, and the commercial side that keeps every price published and plain.
Every price is published, plus VAT. Racing simulator hire prices has every line.
A footnote for the motorsport historians: in our early years we also ran professional esports competitions, and that side of the business was acquired by Motorsport Network in 2019. The events company on this page has always been independent.
