Automotive competition method for road vehicle, relative apparatus and relative road vehicle

An apparatus (1) for motor racing comprising:

• a real driving system (2), which in turn comprises a real first road vehicle (3);
• a virtual driving system (6), which in turn comprises a virtual second road vehicle (7);
• a communication system (8) between the real driving system (2) and the virtual driving system (6), which is configured to exchange data between the real driving system (2) and the virtual driving system (6);
• a control system (9), which is configured to define a virtual space (VS), comprising a virtual track (10), on which to let race together a virtual projection (11) of the first road vehicle (3) and the second road vehicle (7);
• the apparatus (1) being configured to make at least the first road vehicle (3) and the second road vehicle (7) race against each other;
• wherein the first road vehicle (3) comprises a control unit (12) configured to detect and transmit to the control system (9) a plurality of vehicular data (VD), which data is a function of actions imparted by a driver (DR) to the first road vehicle (3);
• wherein the control system (9) is configured to move the virtual projection (11) of the first road vehicle (3) in the virtual space (VS) as a function of actions given by a driver (DR) to the first road vehicle (3);
• wherein the second road vehicle (7) is configured to be driven in real time by a user (U) via a video game or simulator.
