Lamborghini has announced it is entering a multi-year agreement with software company Zynga Inc., to make CSR Racing (CSR) an official partner of Lamborghini Squadra Corse as it embarks on its first season in the top classes of both the FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) and IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship.
Developed by NaturalMotion, a subsidiary of Zynga Inc., CSR2 is a customizable and immersive free-to-play mobile racing game franchise – created in 2012 – and will feature, among many Lamborghini models, the Lamborghini SC63 LMDh prototype, which will race in the Hypercar and Grand Tourer Prototype (GTP) classes of FIA WEC and IMSA respectively in 2024.
The mutual partnership between Zynga Inc. and Lamborghini Squadra Corse also means that the SC63 and Lamborghini Iron Lynx drivers will be licenced to the CSR 2 game, giving users the chance to race life-like versions of the LMDh prototypes that will compete in standout endurance events such as the Daytona 24 Hours and the 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Additionally, the CSR 2 branding will be present on the Lamborghini Iron Lynx cars, driver overalls and team uniforms throughout the 2024 racing season and beyond.
