iRacing

iRacing is the benchmark for PC motorsport simulation, claiming rank 9 on a revenue model that generates far more per user than any single-purchase racing title. Its $9.99/month entry subscription anchors the pricing ladder, while a DLC catalog of 100+ laser-scanned circuits and 90+ licensed vehicles — priced individually at $3–$15 each — drives average annual spending per dedicated member well above $100. NASCAR, IndyCar, and Formula 1 organizations officially partner with iRacing for driver training and esports programs, a credibility stamp that justifies premium pricing and minimizes churn. Its simultaneous appearance at rank 10 on this same list confirms that iRacing's weekly Steam revenue footprint is wide enough to hold two chart positions at once — a feat no other sim racing title managed in Week 18, 2026.
