The Hive
|
The Hive is an academy for drivers who are supported by the Phoenix Formula Virtual team in an attempt to find drivers suitable for potential future careers in the highest tier of Virtual Motorsport.
The team itself was founded with the intention of providing a pathway into Formula Virtual for young drivers, then the academy was officially formed in 2018 when Phoenix entered the 2018 Formula Virtual World Championship after stepping up from FV2. Whilst not officially academy drivers for a Formula Virtual team, drivers who drove for Phoenix Motorsport in their junior series days are also regarded by the team as being former members of The Hive.
