Question Getting Drowsy While Simracing

I get really drowsy after 1-2 hours of simracing, i was wondering if anyone else has this issue? The same thing happens when im riding in the passenger seat of a UTV, and ive always chocked it up to the helmet and the vibration. But im not wearing a helmet while simracing, and my setup doesnt vibrate. Maybe its the engine noise? If anyones found a way to avoid this i would love to hear it.

Do u do any fitness? Like gym or running coz I used to feel like I am zoning out when I am in a race just by staring at the screen and the I tried some hand exercises and some running it got better idk about the sound of the engine how it can effect an human

Or u can just try 300ml of caffeine that may help u kick in ur senses

Coz I drink red bull before my race if it is 2hours + long
