Racing is Racing. The physical demands of an actual car on track are getting to be about the only difference.

And in case you missed this post.

This explains the McLaren Time Trial

Formula E isn't the future of the sport. E-Racing is. As cost to field a team grow higher and higher, there will be fewer competitors.

E-racing is far more cost effective and you are getting to the point where you can barely tell the difference. It can give a more immersive fan experience. With a VR headset and audio, they will be able to put fans in the cockpit with the driver. And I am sure that some savvy entrepreneur will create viewing venues with hydrolic seats that also give you a feel for the movement of the car as well. The only thing you won't do is drive in the race itself. And they could give you the opportunity to switch between virtual cars. Oh, for a minute there, I thought we were talking about RR3, not an E-racing simulator.

But even then, it might be an Immersive experience, but it will never provide the experience driving a real car can. Don't know if you've ever raced, but part of the thrill, is knowing any mistake you make could lead to your death. You can't replicate that feeling with any simulator.
