__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The Lionheart IndyCar Series was founded in 2014 by a group of like-minded racers who wanted to
take American open-wheel racing on iRacing to the next level. From its initial 16-race season, Lionheart
has grown exponentially and now offers 3 broadcasted premier open-wheel racing leagues.
Lionheart runs races nearly every week from March until December.

The Lionheart IndyCar Series uses the Dallara IR-18 chassis to create the ultimate test of speed and
racing discipline. We showcase our league and our drivers at some of the most popular and exciting
venues of recent years. Our goal is to emulate as closely as possible the real world IndyCar Series.
​
The Lionheart Retro Series uses the high horsepower Lotus 79 model recreating the glory days of
IndyCar from the 1970’s and 80’s. Manufactured before the advent of drivers aids or electronics,
this car and this series showcase the raw racing talent of its drivers. The Lotus’s are designed with
quick acceleration and power which makes for a very difficult car to control.

The Lionheart Speedway Series uses the DW-12 IndyCar chassis and focuses on the highly competitive fast paced discipline of oval racing. Our Speedway Series provides an additional opportunity for drivers specializing in
oval racing to be a part of the Lionheart league and showcase their talents. Our Speedway Series promises to
​provide intense, fast paced wheel to wheel action.

All Lionheart leagues are “Fixed Setup” racing leagues. All drivers are provided the same engineered
setup with limited ability to make any adjustments to the car. This equalizes the field and
makes the race entirely about ability and racing strategy. The racing is intense, and drivers are so
focused that many drivers use real crew chiefs and spotters to help along the way.

Our racing is unmatched anywhere in iRacing, but what really sets Lionheart apart isn’t found on
the track; it’s found in the spirit and the values of each of our members. Founded to carry on the
memory of fallen IndyCar Champion Dan Wheldon; from day 1 Lionheart has put an incredibly
strong emphasis on driver conduct both on and off the track. League members adhere to a very detailed
rulebook which governs on-track and off-track actions ensuring a clean and respectful atmosphere
for participants and sponsors.

Being a successful member of the Lionheart Series requires strong values such as dedication,
compassion, hard-work and commitment. The day to day operations of the league itself are run
by a team of 7 individuals dedicated to presenting the best product possible. Lionheart is seeking
like-minded sponsors interested in showcasing their organization to an ever-growing audience.

Jorge Anzaldo league founder 

Residing in Chicago, Illinois with his wife and two children, Jorge has
been a paramedic with the Chicago Fire Department for 21 years. A
motorsports fan since early childhood, Jorge always wanted to share
his passion for IndyCar racing with others. Jorge joined iRacing in 2013
and after a year of public competition decided he wanted more from
his racing experience. Forming a competitive, organized and realistic
league was the step which proved to be a rewarding and unique challenge.
After a several months of planning the Lionheart IndyCar series was born to give sim racers the opportunity to experience what real world drivers go through over the course of a long, demanding season. The highs, the lows, both victory and defeat would now play out in this simulated world. July 1, 2014 was the inaugural race for Lionheart, and now after 200+ organized events Lionheart is just a few short weeks away from starting its 8th season and 6th year of operation. Jorge is committed to the Sim Racing community and the growth of eSports and Sim Racing. He’s focused on building and maintaining relationships with the drivers and sponsors. Jorge oversees the day to day operations of the league working closely with fellow administrative members, partners and sponsors.
