OSM Racing International, or OSM for short, is a British virtual racing team which currently runs teams in eVirtual, VWRS and VERS. The team made it's debut in the 2021 eVirtual World Championship after debuting in VWRS the same year. The following season saw OSM expand into VERS.

History

Origins

OSM Racing International was formed in 2020 by Phoenix Deputy Team Principal Christian Sear, Phoenix Head of Sponsorship & PR Terry McCarroll, and local businessman Jon Oakwell. OSM was set up in time to compete in the 2020 Virtual 24 Hours, before expanding into VWRS for the 2021 season.

The team, whilst a separate entity, has close ties to Phoenix and the team base is next door to Phoenix's; just off Don Street in Middleton, Greater Manchester.

2021 season

In 2021, OSM made their debut in VWRS, running Phoenix young drivers Daniel Zientek and Ott Eskola. The season began almost perfectly for the new team; taking four wins from the first five races - including all three in Australia - as well as a further two podiums. Their results tailed off a little after that, though, with just one more win all season, courtesy of Eskola in Belgium. Nonetheless, it was a fantastic first season in Virtual Motorsport and OSM finished the season as runners up with 357 points, with Zientek taking second place behind Formation Competition's Matteo Zetticci.
