Virtex is a new automotive simulator facility launching at the Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Belgium, aiming to offer professional racing teams and drivers access to top-grade simulation systems. The company has opted to install Dynisma’s Motion Generator (DMG) technology at the facility, an ultra-low latency, high bandwidth system with real-world correlation capabilities that is already in use with teams across Formula 1, Formula 2, Formula E, WEC, IMSA, and global automotive OEMs.
To mark the first phase of this rollout, exclusive pre-launch access is now open (by application only), offering race teams and engineering partners the opportunity to try out the simulator at Spa ahead of the public launch in June 2025. Visitors can learn about Dynisma’s motion platform, simulator capabilities, and Virtex’s ambition to be a European hub for elite driver development and engineering test programmes.
The DMG-1 simulator installed at Virtex features a GT mock-up chassis, which can be interchanged with other vehicle types such as LMDh or single-seaters, offering flexibility across motorsport categories. Situated trackside, the facility will offer a blend of Driver-in-the-Loop training, vehicle development, and simulator demonstrations, using accurate track models of Spa and other circuits.
The DMG-1 is the first of four Dynisma systems planned for the facility, with three additional simulators scheduled for installation by the end of 2025.
Julien Gillard, founder & CEO of Virtex, commented: “Simulation has long been a critical tool for F1 and other factory programmes, and our goal is to make this level of access more widely available to motorsport teams of all sizes. This marks the beginning of something exciting; accurate, high-fidelity simulation available right where performance matters most. The Spa location is symbolic, and we’re thrilled to open this invitation-only preview and begin showcasing what’s possible.”
