Bleacher Report: “The Audi Formula E team has suspended driver Daniel Abt for cheating during an esports charity race over the weekend.”

“Audi announced Abt’s punishment in an official statement on Tuesday, via ESPN.com: “Daniel Abt did not drive his car in qualifying and the race at the fifth event of the Race at Home Challenge on May 23 himself, but let a professional sim-racer do so. He directly apologised for this on the following day and accepted the disqualification.”

“Per Alan Baldwin of Reuters, Abt used professional gamer Lorenz Hoerzing as his ringer during Sunday’s Race at Home Challenge event.”
