On this episode of The League Podcast (Season 1, Episode 5), host Chris Harris sits down with Gregory Hoveson, one of The League’s top-tier pros and the first pro guest to join the show.
Greg breaks down what separates real pros from everyone else: the data, the preparation, the strategy, and the mindset. From karting at 6 years old in Toronto to working in the Road to Indy as an engineer, to becoming a 9,000+ iRating iRacing competitor, Greg explains how the sim world mirrors real-world motorsports, and in some ways delivers even more data than the track.
We get into:
What “pro” actually means in sim racing (contracts, commitments, exposure, and expectations)
The real path to 9,000+ iRating and why pros don’t chase iRating anymore
How teams choose cars with testing and full-season analysis (and why the Mercedes became the weapon of choice)
Fixed vs open setups, and what it takes to find pace at the limit
Prize money, why it matters, and what attracts pros to The League
