KOWANDOH RENEWS AT FOX and more...

By Mano Manikandan, 8 September 2026

FOX eSports silence the rumours by finally working a deal out with Kowandoh Badu. There was a lot of suspicion that Badu had left plenty time to discuss with other teams and Vegasport was one of the places he was expected to go - however nothing changes for Season 5, the British driver clearly happy with his team. He'll be partnering Mackenzie Thompson formerly from Vegasport, the team aiming for a lengthy stride next season.

Maryland Simsport announce Murat Sesli as their new driver for Season 5. He'll be in the car as early as Round 10 in Season 4, after working out a deal with Camber Powerhouse where Murat was reserving for. The Turkish driver gets plenty stick for being unfaithful in his team projects, famously known for his rash moves on track and burning the bridge between himself and Aeron. Season 5 is his final chance to prove that he can work well in a team and commit to the long term vision of a project. Maryland also benefit from the experience of Murat, who has participated since Season 2.

Camber Powerhouse also finally put pen to paper with Alex Quansah O'Neill who stays at the team for another season. Alex endured a difficult rookie season attempting to get to grips with the car in contract to his American teammate Walter Dunk, yet started to show signs of promise towards the latter half of the season. As such, the Scottish team believes and backs Alex for another season, and he'll be hoping to continue the upwards trajectory of form.

More pieces of the puzzle begin fitting into place. Who next?
