Sunday 30th September 2018, 12:20 | written by: Gabriel SciberrasFollowing our exclusive interview with the young Maltese SMIRacing talent of Bernard Vella, viewable here, Gamers.com.mt has decided to delve deeper into the realm of SIMRacing; especially that of Malta. To do so, we consulted one of the experts in the field, being a professional working with GT OMEGA RPM Esports, the company who's looking to build an academy for youth - World Pro Racing. Below is his statement in Maltese.
Justin Mifsud:
World Pro Racing torganizza tlielaq tal motorsport virtwali f’livel kemm lokali specjalment internazzjonali, se tiftah akkademja ghal xufiera kemm Maltin kif ukoll barranin. Wara is successi li kisbet barra min xtutna f’livell professjonali ta organizzazjoni iddecidiet li tiftah bieb iehor biex tghin lil sewwieqa li jixtiequ jiksbu karriera fl-Esports bhala xufiera professjonali. Din l-akkademja ser tkun qed taghti tahrig intesiv u fl-livelli differenti li jibdew min Amateur u jibqghu tilghin sa l-oghla livell. Wara hafna ezercizjji matul is sena, it team ta World Pro Racing ser ikun qieghed jaghmel testijiet biex jintaghzlu diversi xufiera li orew li huma promittenti u ghandom it-talent biex jaghmlu parti mit team professjonali GT OMEGA RPM Esports.
L-etajiet jibdew min sitt snin u jibqghu tilghin il fuq. Dan it tahrig is sir mhux biss ghas settur ta l-esports pero anke biex ikun hemm preparamenti ghal tlielaq reali fid dinja tal Motorsport. Din tista tghin peress li f’Malta mghandiex fejn nipprattikaw u dik hija l-unika soluzjjoni li tista tipprattika it trakka li se ssuq fiha qabel it tigrija reali.
Dan it tahrig ser isir onlajn sakemm jitlesta is Simulation Centre gewwa Malta. Kull xufier li jintaghzel huwa mehtieh li jkollu steering wheel kif ukoll il pedali, kompjuter u ovjament Internet. Ix xufiera li ser jaghmlu parti min din l-akkademja ser ikunu jistghu jigu f’dan il post u jigu imharga min xufiera ta esperjenza kemm fis settur ta l-Esports kif ukoll fil Motorsport reali.
It tahrig ma jinkludix biss tlielaq fit trakkek, izda anka kif iggib ruhek ma xufiera ohra, kemm tkun prezentabbli u professjonali quddiem camera jew waqt intervista, kif taghmel promozzjoni tajba lil kumpanijji li qieghdin jissapportjawk. B’hekk wara dan it tahrig kollu ix xufier tista tghid li jkun komplut mhux biss li jkun tajjeb fis sewqan imma wkoll mid dehra u kif jippresenta ruhu fil publiku.
Kif jista’ wiehed tapplika?
Kull min ghandu computer, steering u pedali u ovjament internet jista japplika biex jintaghzel. Huwa importanti illi taghti deskrizzjoni dettaljata ta esperjenza li ghandek fis sim racing, kif ukoll l-amont ta hin li tista tiprrattika, biex tkun tista tigi maghzul fil categorija li hija addatta ghalik.
Kull min hu interessat jista jibaghat email fuq [email protected] u jhalli id dettalji tieghu.
In English, it's quite simple. Basically, World Pro Racing will be opening an academy with the intention of developing professional SIMRacing drivers through weekly training and exercise. Age of entry is 6 up, with every applicant expected to have an internet connection, peripherals and of course, the passion to drive. Driving etiquette and professionalism is equally important to skill. Anyone who's interested needs to contact the included email.
We're very grateful for the breakdown from Justin Mifsud - this being an incredible opportunity for anyone looking for a start in esports racing. Gamers.com.mt quite likes the idea of it and is excited to view the professional SIMRacers that come out of it.
