Watch: Kris Bryant Competing with Athletes, Elite Pro Racers in Red Bull Homestretch Virtual Car Racing Series

You may have a wait a while to see Kris Bryant in a Cubs jersey again, but there is still a way to watch him compete. Starting Thursday, May 14 at 11pm CT, you can watch KB as part of Red Bull Homestretch, a “no-holds-barred series of weekly virtual races on Red Bull’s Twitch channel, with all battles on the Gran Turismo Sport video game.”

Joining Bryant will be motorsports legend Travis Pastrana and LA Rams quarterback Jared Goff, along with several elite professional racecar drivers. Bryant actually visited one of the actual tracks on the circuit, the Red Bull Ring, as part of his European honeymoon, though how much of the knowledge he retained from that trip is questionable.
