beIN SPORTS, the official broadcaster of Formula One, held a spectacular Spanish Grand Prix watch party at Mansion Sports Bar & Lounge, attracting the vibrant community of Formula One fans and motorsports enthusiasts in the Philippines. The event, which took place on Sunday, June 23, was hosted by Marlon Stöckinger who led the evening with an interactive quiz night testing guests on their racing history. The top scorers won premium merchandise from beIN SPORTS and Formula One. Afterwards, everyone got to enjoy the thrills and heart-stopping action of the Spanish Grand Prix live on massive HD screens from every corner of the venue, delivering an unforgettable hour of racing excitement and fan engagement to cap off the night.
The race was broadcasted using beIN SPORTS CONNECT, beIN’s live streaming, multi-screen app.
Stöckinger, the renowned Status Grand Prix 2012 driver, brought his passion for racing to the forefront, creating an engaging and thrilling experience for all attendees. The program also included an on-demand replay of the all-female F1 ACADEMY races, featuring Filipina racing phenom Bianca Bustamante, who also sent in a video message thanking the local fans for continuing to support and cheer her on during every race.
Making the event even more memorable was a special racing simulator provided by SIM2 Premier, the official distributor of SiMagic in the Philippines. SiMagic is the official sim equipment of Formula DRIFT and partner of iRacing. Here, guests were provided with a first-hand virtual experience of getting behind the wheel of a Full-Motion Racing Simulator set up to feel and drive like a Formula One machine and racing the Barcelona circuit. Those who clocked in the best times also took home exclusive beIN SPORTS and Formula One prizes.
