Global competitive sim racing platform SimRacing.GP (SGP) has launched AWS servers in Mumbai. According to the platform, this is in response to sim racing’s growing interest in India and surrounding APAC regions.
With the additional server location, SGP also seeks to attract global racing leagues hosting events across APAC and Europe.
The new servers aim to provide players in India and adjacent countries with reduced latency and better ping times for an elevated competitive experience.
SGP was founded in 2021 as a global sim racing hub for competitive online racing. The platform caters to players of all skill levels, offering racing opportunities, community spaces and competitions. In the past, SGP has partnered with brands such as gaming PC manufacturer Chillblast and technology company Intel.
This year, the company has announced the return of two racing tournaments in partnership with sim racing hardware manufacturer MOZA and sim racing cockpit manufacturer Next Level Racing.
Moreover, SGP launched the GT Esports Cup with national sports government body Motorsport UK. Taking place across British tracks on Assetto Corsa Competizione (ACC) as well as the Spa circuit in Belgium, the race features professional sim racers and community drivers.
In a press release, SimRacing.GP shared: “The addition of the Mumbai server location is just one step in SGP’s ongoing mission to expand its global footprint and cater to sim racing communities worldwide. As we continue to grow, our focus remains on providing the best possible racing experience, with high-performance servers, innovative features, and a commitment to simplifying the user experience.
“With AWS Mumbai servers now live, SGP is excited to welcome more racers from India and the APAC region to join our community and experience the thrill of sim racing like never before.”
