Is drone racing a sport?

[Noob_fpv]

Me and my brother are having an argument whether it is or is not. Please can I have your views on this. Thanks

If League of Legends is a sport, then I think it's safe to say the same about drone racing.

It's not a physical sport, but you can bet on it. The quad jockeys doing the handling get more exercise. It's a mental sport maybe?

But hey... it's on ESPN

I'm saying "yes" Drone racing is becoming a big time sport

BTW: Jet won it again, 2016 & 2017 Champion, this guy can fly !! ( Watch out for Gab707 next year, he lost by only 1 point ) !
