It's been a while since the F1 Esports Pro Series 2020 concluded, but racing esports are finally making a return with the Virtual Grand Prixs starting this Sunday. As part of the event, Red Bull Racing has announced in a press release that it will be racing for its official charity Wings for Life.

As part of the Virtual Grand Prixs for this year, Red Bull's own Alex Albon will be taking the wheel in the event alongside MXGP World Champion Jeffrey Herlings - for a spot of the $100,000 prize pool for charity.

Red Bull Racing Esports team members Marcel Kiefer and Frede Rasmussen are set to take charge of the qualifying for the event, to determine where Albon and Herlings will start on the grid for the event.

To check out the race itself, be sure to catch the action when it starts at 6pm GMT / 7pm CET on Sunday, January 31 over here.
