The dust has settled and the points have been tallied. 3,185 drivers competed in this year’s iRacing Road Warrior series. A huge congratulations to the iRacing Road Warrior Series overall points top 10 . . . and to everyone who battled it out, hunting for this year’s Road Warrior crown, from Phillip Island to Circuit of the Americas, in everything from a Skip Barber F2000 to a Williams-Toyota FW31 and Corvette C6.R.

All hail Aday Caday Lopez: iRacing’s top Road Warrior.

1.    Aday Coba Lopez (3035 points): Iberia Club’s Lopez was the class of the field all year often winning races by nearly a lap or more. He only made 20 race starts, but he won 13 of those. Many of those wins came from one of Lopez’s 11 pole positions. When he didn’t win he often was in the top five, claiming 18 top five finishes. Lopez had the lowest incident count (79 total) for the top 10. On his way to the championship Lopez led 304 laps of his 759 completed.

Despite making three fewer starts, Moreno gave Lopez a run for his money.

2.    Julian Rodriguez Moreno (2927 points): Moreno was just as fast as his team mate Lopez, but made three less starts and had four fewer wins. Still, it was an incredible season with nine wins and 14 top five finishes.  What’s more he not only bested his team mate with 15 pole positions, Moreno led more laps than Lopez with 331 total.

Mr. Consistency also managed a trio of wins.

3.    Rob Kodey (2583): Rob Kodey proved consistency can pay off. Despite winning just three races he took third in the championship. This was due to his 19 top five finishes. Kodey led 47 laps throughout the year and is also the highest scoring American driver in the championship.

Loginov topped Europe’s unofficial “non-Iberia” class.

4.    Andrey Loginov (2203): Loginov took home one win, and 10 top five finishes through-out his championship hunt. Loginov is the highest point scorer in Europe outside the Iberian Peninsula.

Bryan “Never Say Die” Goddard captured the D2 crown en route to sixth overall.
