On Track for Success: Luke Mitchinson Secures Spot in Qualifying Series

In a thrilling display of skill and determination, Luke Mitchinson has triumphed in the Pre-Qualifying phase of the 2024 Logitech G Supercar Pro Invitational Series, earning himself a coveted position in the Qualifying Series. 

With a commendable third-place finish in Pre-Qualifying, Mitchinson has showcased his prowess against a field of formidable competitors, marking a significant milestone in his racing career.

Facing off against some of the most talented drivers in the community, Mitchinson's achievement underscores his unwavering dedication and commitment to the Pro Invitational Series. Once again representing the team Raceonoz, Mitchinson's journey to the Qualifying Series again in 2024 symbolizes the culmination of practice, strategic awareness, and sheer perseverance.

When asked about the statement his performance in Pre Qualifying has made and whether he is confident that he can continue the form into the Qualifying Series itslef Luke resopnded by saying; 

"I spent the summer break away from sim racing so coming back fresh for pre qualifying I wasn’t sure where my pace would be. Coming third overall with the quickest Phillip Island time was pretty cool even if some guys weren’t showing their full pace. Looking at last year in the pro series I felt like I never maximised a whole weekend from qualifying to race to strategy, there’s a lot more to it than just setting a fast time. Either way it’s a good confidence boost and makes me even more excited for the year."

The Pre-Qualifying phase of the 2024 Logitech G Supercar Pro Invitational Series proved to be a challenging test for all participants, with each contender vying for a chance to advance to the next stage of the competition. Against this backdrop of intense competition, Mitchinson's stellar performance in securing third position highlights his skill and exceptional competitive spirit.

For Mitchinson, the road to the Qualifying Series represents a continuation of his quest for excellence in the world of professional Sim Racing. Having finished 32nd in the 2023 series and 30th in 2022, Mitchinson's steady progression underscores his unwavering commitment to continual improvement and mastery of his craft.

"The competition keeps me coming back, the series is so hotly contested that you need to really give it everything for a good result. I’ve enjoyed the challenge of trying to move up the order and take it to the bigger teams."

With the Qualifying Series looming on the horizon, Mitchinson remains focused on the task at hand, fully aware of the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead. Unfortunately fellow Raceonoz team mate Ben Smith narrowly missed the top 45 cutoff position so Luke will go it alone throughout the qualifying series but it does open up a potnetially strong co-driver opportunity come the Endurance Cup later in the year. 

"The guys are looking good for the year, they’re all very experienced in the supercar and I’d confidently hand the car over to any of them for an enduro. We’ve all driven plenty of laps around these tracks so once you’ve done a few sighter laps you’re right on the pace."

As Luke prepares to embark on the next leg of his racing journey, anticipation runs high among fans and enthusiasts eager to witness the unfolding drama and excitement of the Qualifying Series. Stay tuned to the Pro Invitational website and social media channels for all the details about how you can tune on and watch along when Round 1 gets underway on January 31st at Road Atlanta.
