Do you know the “MotoGP™ Championship Quest”?
A free game set up by Dorna which has reached impressive numbers.
The principle is simple: you download the game from iTunes, Googleplay or Amazon App, you register, and you have before you a championship in 43 weekly rounds. Each week a podium is declared based, not on the popularity of the drivers, but on the efforts of each driver's fans. You can follow this news on the game Facebook page and many prizes are up for grabs.
The annual ranking has just been released and these are the fans ofEugene Laverty who did the best, ahead of those of Loris Baz et Alex Espargaro.
The game is visibly addictive since Sam Knott, who best made the colors of the Irish driver shine, did not count his efforts: 500 hours spent playing for a total of 6600 races.
It is obviously Valentino Rossi who was the most chosen but his fans were less assiduous and/or less skillful than those of the aforementioned trio and the Italian champion finished 4th.
The game also serves as an advertising medium, through its trackside displays, for some major MotoGP brands, such as Brembo, Tissot, Michelin and Monster. And like the figures put forward by LinkedIn are truly gigantic, like the half a million daily races and the 71 daily hours spent playing, the number of displays is dizzying, with a record of 000 billion for Brembo. This game is therefore in line with the current market trend, namely free play versus integrated advertising displays.
