Further details of the FIA Motorsport Games, a new multi-disciplinary event, were revealed at a press conference held hosted by the FIA and promoter SRO Motorsports Group at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps.

The FIA Motorsport Games were borne out of the successful FIA GT Nations Cup held last year at the Bahrain International Circuit, and the concept was announced by the FIA last month.

The inaugural event, organized by the FIA in conjunction with promoter SRO Motorsports Group, is scheduled to take place in Rome and at the nearby Vallelunga Circuit from October 31 to November 3, 2019.

The FIA Motorsport Games will be held across six different racing disciplines, with established categories such as GT, Touring Cars and Formula 4 featuring alongside the emerging competitions of drifting, digital motorsport and karting slalom, which are rapidly gaining in prominence.

Continuing the national focus of the GT Nations Cup, each competition invites one entry per country to be selected by the respective National Sporting Authorities (ASNs) worldwide. Liveries in each discipline will feature the national flag of the respective country.

Each competition will award gold, silver and bronze medals to its top three, all of which will contribute to an overall medal table to determine the winning nation at the end of the event.
