RedLine Racing's Christopher Langeveldt leads GhostworX Racing's Markus Steyn during the opening lap of the 2018.1 SA simGT Series final round at the Nordschleife circuit.

GhostworX Racing has won Sim Race South Africa’s flagship championship; the SA simGT Series, for the second time. Basheer Jadwat and Markus Steyn share two victories, three further podium finishers, a fourth and a fifth place finish repectively, to ultimately claim the teams’ title. As previously reported, Jadwat clinched the Drivers’ Championship during the penultimate round at Road America.

RedLine Racing (Christopher Langeveldt and Pieter Geldenhuys) had a chance of fighting for the title going into the final round at the Nordschleife, however despite Langeveldts impressive race victory at the Nordschleife, the team finished 29 points behind come race end.

Synergy Spartan’s Quayde Claassens won the 2018.1 GT-AM Drivers’ Championship, for drivers competing in their first competitive season at Sim Race South Africa.
