There might not be any on track Formula 1 racing this weekend, but Williams Esports are putting together the perfect replacement.

Later today (Saturday 20) they’ll be streaming four races, culminating in a 25% distance battle around Imola with some familiar faces taking part.

Alex Albon and James Vowles will both be racing – stay tuned to Williams Esports’ channels to discover who else will be getting involved.

We cannot forget why we are not racing this weekend, so as such, all funds raised will go towards the Emilia-Romagna Flood Relief Effort.

Join us live from 17:00 BST on the Williams Esports Twitch Channel for full coverage.
