Hyundai Motor held a comprehensive award ceremony for the 2024 season of the "Hyundai N Festival" at the Hyundai N Archive (tentative name) in Uiwang City, Gyeonggi Province on the 14th.
The Hyundai N Archive is a storage facility for storing and managing Hyundai Motor's N-branded vehicles used in domestic and international motor sports competitions, which is scheduled to officially open early next year.
More than 300 officials, including teams and players participating in the Hyundai N Festival, attended the award ceremony and delivered trophies to the teams and players with the best performance this year.
Hyundai N Festival is the largest one-make race in Korea that all motorsports fans can enjoy and experience, and it is an auto race competition that competes with the same type of car and specification.
This season, the Hyundai N Festival ran a professional competition, ▲eN1 ▲ N1, and as an amateur competition, it was divided into four classes, including ▲N2 ▲ NTT, and played for eight months starting with the first round held at Inje Speedium in April.
This year's overall team championship was won by the Kumho SL Motorsports Team for eN1 and the DCT Racing Team for N1. In the player category, Park Joon-ui won the eN1 and Kim Kyu-min won the N1 and Kim Hyo-gyeom and Choi Yoo-jun won the N2 and NTT, respectively.
DCT racing team Kim Young-chan was selected as the "Hyundai Junior Driver" and got a chance to compete in the "2025 Nurburgring 24:00 Endurance Race."
Starting in 2022, Hyundai Motor has selected Hyundai Junior drivers and is giving them opportunities to compete in world competitions such as the Nurburgring 24:00 Endurance Race and the global mass-produced car-based auto race "TCR (Touring Car Race) Italy."
Hyundai Junior drivers are selected by evaluating ▲ game performance ▲ driving skill ▲ technical understanding ▲ foreign language ability among players under the age of 25 who participate in the N1 class by TCR World Tour coaches and athletes as judges.
The Hyundai N Festival in the 2025 season will start with the first round in April next year and will play a total of six games until November.
Along with the Hyundai N Festival, the TCR World Tour and TCR Asia will also participate in the support race. The winners of the global one-make race "China Hyundai N Cup" and "U.S. Hyundai N Trophy Cup" will also compete in the final round of the Hyundai N Festival to be held in November next year.
Hyundai Motor has been continuously sponsoring and holding various competitions to expand the base of motor sports for more than 20 years, from the Hyundai Click Speed Festival (2003-2010) to the Korea Speed Festival (2011-2018).
In addition, Hyundai Motor announced the start of electric vehicles at the domestic motorsport competition by operating an electric vehicle one-make race with the Ioniq 5 N-based race car "Ioniq 5 NeN1 Cup car" at this year's Hyundai N Festival.
