Don't underestimate sims.

Formula-E is recruiting drivers using sims right now; it has been proven to work.

Talked to instructors at TrackSchool - I'm doing some tracking with them. They said my lines are spot on (first sesson) did I run here before? No I said but I've practiced in sims. Ah, they said, people with sim background tend to be better to start with...

@jjaisli ; their priority is not your priority. It's a sim, albeit less accurate. To be honest, if "Indianapolis" 500 was called a sim, anything out there currently should be called a sim, LOL.
