    It would run. It won't be perfect, and you'll probably have to compromise on graphics, but it should be very playable.
    On the graphics side, Iris is not the best, it's pretty weak, but it should give decent fps on medium-low graphic settings.
    The CPU is the most important for Beamng, I have a pretty old desktop i5 and it struggles with many AI cars, laptop i5 are weaker but yours is much more new than mine, a 6th gen, so I'd say that you'll probably be fine, but you can experiment with the amount of cars running and see how much of a hit performance would take.
    8gb for ram is 100% fine, as long as you avoid some of the huge modded maps.
    Enjoy!
