The Porsche Esports Sprint Challenge Malaysia returns this year, Porsche Malaysia has announced, and registration has opened today at the official Porsche Esports Sprint Challenge Malaysia website. Registration for PESCM 2026 closes at 11:59pm on April 10, 2026.
This year’s edition brings a new category, Female Dreamers, an all-female category for participants ages 10 to 23 years. All female participants in PESCM 2026 will automatically be entered into the Female Dreamers category. There are a total of four categories for this year’s edition of the Porsche Esports Sprint Challenge Malaysia:
- Junior Dreamers: 10 – 14 years old
- Young Dreamers: 15 – 17 years old
- Driven Dreamers: 18 – 23 years old
- Female Dreamers: 10 – 23 years old (all-female category)
Differing this year is the simulator platform that PESCM 2026 will be run on, and this will be Assetto Corsa, moving on from the RaceRoom Racing Experience simulator that was used last year.
For this year, unlike last year’s running, there will be no online qualifying rounds, as all qualifying sessions and races will be held on-ground. Participants must register and select a Porsche Centre to represent in Round 1, which will determine their qualifying location for Round 2.
Locations for Qualifying Round 1 are:
- Bangsar Shopping Centre, Kuala Lumpur – April 18-19, 2026
- The Mall, Mid Valley Southkey, Johor Bahru – April 25-26, 2026
- Gurney Paragon Mall, Penang – May 2-3, 2026
The top 30 drivers from each category at each qualifying location will advance to Qualifying 2, which will be held at Porsche Centre locations nationwide. From these, the 10 fastest drivers from each Porsche Centre will progress to Qualifying 3, which will take place at Pavilion Bukit Jalil on July 4 to 5, 2026.
The 10 fastest drivers from each category in Qualifying 3 at Pavilion Bukit Jalil will advance to the PESCM 2026 final at Rounds 9, 10 and 11 of the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia series to be held at the Petronas Sepang International Circuit, taking place on August 22 to 23, 2026.
The 2026 season of the Porsche Carrera Cup Asia series is one for aspiring racers and PESCM 2026 hopefuls to watch, with PESCM 2025 Driven Dreamers category winner Naquib Azlan taking on a full-season, Pro category entry this year under Team Porsche Malaysia in partnership with Earl Bamber Motorsport (EBM) and Axle Motorsports.
