In another example of automakers getting real about virtual racing, BMW today announced that it will have 10 team BMW drivers competing in online racing series this weekend as part of the BMW Motorsport Sim Racing program.

Oliver Zipse, BMW’s CEO, officially announced plans to produce a fully electric version of the 7 Series at the company’s Annual Accounts Press Conference today. The EV will be joined by diesel and gas variants in the car’s next generation.
