Sim racing gained a lot of popularity in recent years, with many more enthusiasts than ever wanting to experience the thrill of racing or driving from the comfort of their homes. Incidentally, Samsung display technologies and sim racing often overlapped, and that's even more true now that Samsung and Racing Unleashed have entered a new partnership.

Late last month, Samsung Electronics Switzerland and Racing Unleashed announced that they're joining forces to combine their expertise and technologies for the betterment of the Racing Unleashed ecosystem. As a result, Samsung is now an official partner and display provider.

Samsung displays powering RU's sim rigs

As part of this new collaboration, Racing Unleashed's simulator rigs will now boast next-gen Samsung display technologies, whether they have single-screen or multi-screen setups.

In addition, Samsung displays will also be used during Racing Unleashed esports competitions and at racing lounges in Switzerland, Germany, and Spain, where racing enthusiasts can come together to exchange ideas, celebrate, and compete on virtual racing tracks.

Racing Unleashed manufactures carbon fiber simulators in Maranello, Italy, using cutting-edge tech. Their Formula-style sim rigs are designed for racing lounges, amateurs, and pro racers alike.

Neither Samsung nor RU has revealed exactly which Samsung displays will be used for these advanced simulator rigs, but Samsung's official announcement does tag the Odyssey series.

Judging by the image above shared by RU, some sim rigs are equipped with flat displays while at least one appears to have an ultrawide curved Odyssey monitor.
