Superleague Formula Team

From RangersPedia

Superleague Formula combines the excitement of football and motorsport - and Rangers are in competition with the world's leading clubs.

Launched in 2008, the racing competition is similar to Formula 1 and currently follows a six-meet schedule in as many European countries.

There are initially two races at each gathering, with a third now held at the conclusion between the top three teams from each contest to decide an overall weekend winner.

The 18 teams competing are all affiliated to football sides, with some of the biggest names in the game among those taking part.

Alongside the Rangers on the grid are the likes of AC Milan, Liverpool, AS Roma, Tottenham Hotspur, Atletico Madrid and Flamengo.

Olympique Lyonnais, Sporting Clube de Portugal and Porto - outfits the club's football team has taken on in recent years - are in there too.

The initial season was a huge success, with 100,000 fans attending events in England, Belgium, Germany, Italy, Portugal and Spain.

In particular, the final round at Jerez stood out and as 34,000 spectators looked on from the stands, events on the track were being broadcast live in 70 countries.
