TESTIMONIALS

Not really impressed by big numbers?
No worries, we got you: Check out what our customers love about us:

I really enjoyed the 30-minute race simulation, especially because I was able to race on the same track with a colleague. The built-in assists helped me to control the car better. I’d love to come back!
Cédric Klein

I was only here to try it out because I was curious. The introduction by the staff was great. No prior knowledge was required. There are also driving settings for inexperienced drivers like me. I started with a 15-minute session to get familiar with it (on the Red Bull Ring). I was immediately hooked and stayed for another 30-minute session (in Monza). Racing in these simulators is an incredible experience, with an intensity that was nothing like what I expected! I can only recommend trying it out! This was definitely not the last time I’ll be here.
Thomas Corbat

Fantastic, if you love F1, this is the perfect place 😍 I think it’s the best simulator on the market, the staff is amazing, they help and advise you on what’s best for you. On boring days, come here with friends, and you will definitely have a lot of fun...
Francesco Fazzelli

Great experience at the Sim Racing Studio! Realistic simulations, state-of-the-art equipment, and friendly staff. Perfect for beginners and pros. Absolutely recommendable for all racing fans!
Emanuel Hausi

Great place to take a date or the kids. Excellent staff too—one of the employees helped us all day and really made us feel at home.
Jesse Jalore

Racing Unleashed in Zurich is simply awesome for anyone who loves motorsports! The simulators are super realistic and so much fun. You feel almost like you’re in a real race car. The atmosphere is laid-back yet still very professional. The team is incredibly nice and always willing to help, whether you’re a beginner or experienced. Everyone can really go full throttle here and have a fantastic racing experience. Definitely 5 stars!
Tim Potzmader

Amazing experience—a great session for anyone interested in F1 or wanting to try the experience. The gentlemen working in the store on 06/06/23 went above and beyond to make the birthday gift experience extra special. 5 stars!
Valerie Kerri

We were there with our employees and received great support and detailed information, thank you! It’s fascinating what’s possible with simulations today. Definitely recommended if you want to experience racing atmosphere without any risk!
Beat S

I was there yesterday with a friend, 3x 30 minutes. I lost all the races ;) But it was so much fun, cool racing feeling. I can only recommend it to everyone, even if you don’t necessarily have a lot to do with racing games, it’s definitely worth trying to experience it. If you race in a group, you can talk to each other via headset. For very tall people (>1.90m, due to the backrest, there’s enough legroom), or people with very broad shoulders, it might get a bit tight, it’s best to hop into the cockpit first. Getting in is easier than getting out :)) I’ll definitely check it out again!
Stephan Zeller

Brilliant Formula 1 simulators. Brand new steering system and modern F1 steering wheel, with lots of cool new tracks. Absolutely recommendable.
Yannick Bollinger

We had a great event at Racing Unleashed. We received a thorough briefing, so there were no major starting difficulties. The absolute highlight was the radio channel, where all drivers can talk to each other at the same time. It’s a shame there is no recording of it, I would have loved to hear all the comments again. During the race, you can choose between different difficulty levels. Depending on the difficulty, the assists you get while driving increase or decrease. The driving feel is very realistic. Drinks are nicely chilled in the fridge. Also, the Motorworld, where the Racing Lounge is located, is definitely worth a visit. I can highly recommend Racing Unleashed.
Lars

I just had an unforgettable day at RU. Super friendly team, who make everything possible for any question or wish. My wife got me a 90-minute voucher for the driving simulator for my birthday. My expectations and ideas were absolutely exceeded. Thanks for this experience.
Christian Schmid

I’m not really a "gamer," but driving in these simulators is really incredibly fun, especially when you race against multiple people.
Andrea Kremer

Great. The price-performance ratio is also fine. It’s incredibly fun, and it feels like you’re really sitting in an F1 car. Especially since the G-forces are simulated by the straps tightening during braking! Definitely recommendable.
Roberto Lisi

This was my first time there and I loved it! The personnel is very friendly and the Sim racing experience there is amazing! It’s not really an everyday occurrence, to be racing in a top-notch full motion racing simulator that looks like a Formula 1 cockpit. The prices are reasonable and justifiable, but you have to book your ride, racing session, or the whole lounge ahead of time. If there were more stars, I'd definitely give more!
Innokenti Nikiforov

Amazing experience, also thanks to the staff, who has been very kind, polite, and a pleasure to talk to. The simulator is brand new, it features FINALLY 2024 F1 cars (not the old 2017 model anymore) and it’s super accurate, also thanks to the belts that help simulate G-forces. Wonderful experience, good prices, and very accurate simulation. I will come back!

Simulator Experience & Customization

We offer the most realistic Formula 1 driving experience possible. You will feel the speed, emotions, and excitement like a real Formula 1 driver! To make it easy for beginners, we have different drive modes. You can select the difficulty yourself. As a beginner, you may want to drive with automatic gear, ideal line shown on the track, ABS, and Traction Control turned on. If you are well-experienced, you can choose levels that suit your abilities, up to completely turning off any driving assistance. Our staff will accompany you at all times and support you by explaining the simulator driving techniques so that you feel comfortable in our Lounge. You can choose the race track and car you want to race. Our staff will also help you pick cool tracks and cars. You can experience racing on your own, but it's much more fun if you drive together with your friends and battle on the track for the lead!

Our staff will be happy to explain the simulator and SimRacing to you, and they will be happy to help and advise you at any time.

For us, a Ride is an experience: You take your seat in the Formula 1 cockpit, put on your seatbelt, our race engineers mount the steering wheel, and off you go to see how it feels to drive at over 300 km/h. The Ride can be just a practice session to improve your driving skills or a complete race session with Qualifying and 1 or 2 Races. You can choose the format in the lounge, and our staff will explain how it works and which format is the most fun for you!

Our Simulator offers the most realistic and visceral experience possible. To ensure that promise, we develop and build the simulator ourselves in Maranello, Italy. Maranello is the hometown of Ferrari, and our facility is located just beside the buildings of this famous brand. Our engineers are all very motorsport enthusiastic and have the ambition to build the world's best and fastest simulator. We only use the finest materials, including a lot of carbon. Basically, our Simulator is a real race car.

Since we have nearly all famous (and some not-so-famous but cool) tracks and different cars from historic to top-modern Formula 1 cars, you can choose what you like the most. Our staff can explain on-site which track/car combinations are the most suitable. If you're out of ideas, you can drive in our monthly challenges where we offer a different car/track combination every month.

We want to offer you the same experience as a real Formula 1 hero. Therefore, you can do time trials or practice on your own to improve your skills, but you can also race with your friends and battle for the win! You can decide in the lounge which race format you prefer; there are several options with shorter or longer race sessions.

Yes, as in real racing, you can battle for the win with your friends on the same track. You will see each other, and there can also be collisions.

Logistics & Practical Information

We appreciate it if you arrive a few minutes before your scheduled time so you can familiarize yourself with the environment and start your racing adventure relaxed.

It's up to you! If you prefer to settle everything before racing, you can do it online. If you want to do an additional ride, you can do it spontaneously in the lounge and pay after the ride.

You are always welcome! You can walk into the lounge, and our staff will do everything for you. Of course, there is a risk that all simulators might be occupied. So it’s a good idea to check availability beforehand. You can do this online using our booking tool or by calling the lounge to reserve your time slot or ask for the next available slot.

All our lounges offer parking spaces. Most of our lounges can be easily reached by public transportation. Please see details on the corresponding site of your preferred lounge.

Safety & Requirements

Yes, there is one risk: You might develop an addiction! We don't take responsibility for any life-changing decisions you make after experiencing our lounges! Seriously, a very small proportion of people may get motion sickness in the simulator. Besides that, there are absolutely no risks. It's far less dangerous than karting or track days with your own car. It's also less dangerous than driving to your workplace.

Although we try to make the simulator as convenient as possible for everyone, there are some limitations since we offer the most realistic Formula 1 experience: - Minimum height: 155 cm - Maximum height: 205 cm - Maximum weight: 110 kg

No, you don't need to bring anything special. If you wear high-heeled shoes, you can drive without shoes or bring your own shoes with flat soles. Driving a Formula 1 car can be exhausting, so it may be a good idea to bring a spare shirt if you have a business meeting afterward.

Facilities & Lounge Services

In all our lounges, you will find beverages to energize yourself after an exhausting race session. Snacks are also available. Since we believe that a good beer is part of a cool evening with friends, all lounges also offer local beer brands. The beverage and snack offerings differ from lounge to lounge because we want to respect local preferences and offer regional products.

Of course! If there are free simulators, you can continue racing!

Performance & Discounts

In practice and qualifying, your fastest lap counts. In the race, your position at the finish line counts as the result.

Yes, you can benefit from discounts on certain days (which can vary from lounge to lounge) or with our packages (raceday share-package) or even have the Goldmember subscription, which allows you to drive as often as you like.
