Red Bull X2010s For All if Vettel Wins 2011 F1 Championship

Jordan Greer · · 273 Comments

Fulfilling his pledge to make important Twitter posts in English, Kazunori Yamauchi has just announced some interesting plans if Sebastian Vettel wins the 2011 F1 World Championship:

If Sebastian Vettel becomes the winner of the F1 World Championship title in the Oct. 9 Formula 1 Suzuka GP, To commemorate Vettel’s 2 year consecutive world championship title, We’ll give away the “Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel” color, TO EVERYONE WHO LOGS ONTO GT5 WITHIN 1WK FROM VETTEL’S VICTORY…

Kazunori has frequently commented on Twitter about Vettel’s performance, and he is obviously a fan of the F1 superstar who was involved with the X2010’s development. Now you’ll have another reason to keep an eye on next weekend’s Grand Prix! Thanks to Adam for the tip.

UPDATE: There was some confusion about whether players would receive only the Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel “color”, or the car itself. Kazunori has since clarified his comments in another tweet, confirming the car itself will be awarded.

  7. X1 is annoying

    Am I the only one who thinks this will be terrible?

    It’s bad enough already with all the idiots plowing into my racing line in an X1 and blaming me, now EVERYONE is going to be annoying online.

    Not to mention the people who ACTUALLY think they genuinely are faster than the rest of the field who AREN’T in an X1

  9. Unpatient admirer

    I admire the guy’s handy work, I just wouldn’t be patient enough to do the metal work and the painting. The guy has real talent, true craftsman like this guy are a dying breed in this cheap gaudy Chinese manufactured world.

  10. Renesis2k

    I laugh at the people who don’t read the article properly. Yes of course were getting a color for a car that can’t be painted…Kaz isn’t stupid!

  12. Pedro

    As i understand it Vettel needs to take the title at Suzuka on the 9th for everyone to get X1’s.
    I know he only needs a point, but he needs to finish the race.
    If he somehow doesn’t finish the race due to failure,crashing out or being taken out by someone else.
    He will not be world Champion at Suzuka and no X1’s for everyone.
    “Anything can happen in formula 1, and it usually does” Murray Walkers wise words.

    Sorry if i sound all doom and gloom, this is just my interpretation of Kaz’s tweet.

    1. WingFlapper

      You are correct, Pedro, in that the tweet clearly states Vettel needs to win the Championship at Suzuka. But I do not think this is the place to demonstrate one’s reading comprehension skills. You are supposed to use this space to establish your superiority through condescension, dissatisfaction, and/or oh-so-above-it-all’edness…

      To clarify, though, even if Vettel does not score a point, he still wins the Championship if Button does not win the race…

  14. Tim

    That’s cool I lost mine when my ps3 crashed and I did not back it up.

    But the way vettel is going we may get it really soon he only needs 1 point and the championship is his and even if he finished 4th or 5th then we might as well say we are all getting X1’s

    Look at the current table

    01 Sebastian Vettel 309
    02 Jenson Button 185
    03 Fernando Alonso 184
    04 Mark Webber 182
    05 Lewis Hamilton 168
    06 Felipe Massa 84
    07 Nico Rosberg 62
    08 Michael Schumacher 52

    1. 99ssd99

      I don’t think everyone will be able to use it. I think you have to be lvl. 30 to use it(i think that’s the lvl the car is capped at).

    UPDATE: There was some confusion about whether players would receive only the Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel “color”, or the car itself. Kazunori has since clarified his comments in another tweet, confirming the car itself will be awarded.

    Read that. You are getting the car.

  19. gtracer2

    I am going to have a second X2010, good lol. Save enough money to restore my old one so I can overhaul its engine and repair the body.

  25. JEMcG

    What the hell am I supposed to do with another red bull. I have 2 already in the same red bull livery. A red bull f1 car would have been a better idea.

  27. KumaNeko

    Well it won’t hurt having 2 of these. But from the looks of it, we’re getting it for sure. Vettel’s leading the championship by almost 200 points. Even if doesn’t get first (which he probably will) in Suzuka, he’s STILL gonna win the whole year.

  32. GT Pro

    Unnecessary, almost every person and his dog has a virtual X2010 now. What would be a good promise from Kazunori, however, is that an X2010 is made in real-life. Can’t be that hard to make it real, given how much effort has already been put in to its design.

  34. guyc1161

    i’ve got 1,1 too many that is,i hate it with a passion,i get the distinct feeling that it will destroy my wheel. just my opinion.nice gesture though for the people who havent got one.

    1. Qwuirp

      What old days? November 27, 2010 thru Jan 17, 2011?
      All you had to do was grind your Bob’s untill the game gave you one. Not like anybody had to have skills or anything.

    3. PS3finest

      @98destroyer

      What about a Veyron WITH the S. Vettel paint and stickers. It would be terrible and thats why Kaz should do it. :D

  39. Gerlich

    He just need 1 single point and he is WC, Seb is at 309 point, while Button at second is at 185. Although the fight for second will still be exiting!. and please give us his F1 car instead!!!

  43. M8h3r

    A 4th redbull is useless to me, I have my bspec grinding s vettel, my 0/0 s vettel and my black batmobile. COME ON JENSON

    The car, not the color. #gt5 RT @burnout_pt: @Kaz_Yamauchi I’m not sure which one you’ll be giving away. The color, or the car? Thanks….

    In Kaz Twiter.
    Its the car.

  46. Lendso

    Im level 40/40. Ive golded all the sebastian vettel challenges BEFORE the sensitivity update plus i got the car at level 35 b-spec and i have been using remote races to get a ton of credits and have bought a X1 in every colour…

    This one better have a special colour!!!

  47. mimaximax

    I would rather prefer a cool “S. VETTEL Red Bull color” paint and decals for whatever car I want to make it exclusive, than just an other X2010 with this particular livery. Moreover, like other said before me, it even would be more fair for those who actually sweated to get it.

    It might be way more complicated to do a special livery which suits all cars (with uncut decals) than just giving an extra free car. Everyone got at least 2 of them in his garage, if not, you can easily borrow one from friends. At least the “prototype” version is more unique.

    If it was only the livery, I think Kaz would have said it in an other way.

  48. sinister_300zx

    AS IF ANYONE NEEDS ONE!.COME ON EVERYONE HAS 1..IF YOU DONT THEN WTF YOU LIVE UNDER A ROCK..OR YOUR FRIENDS ON YOUR BUDDY LIST DONT KNOW HOW TO HOOK YOU UP LOL

  49. royalefatale

    better not be a prototype, it’s one of the few cars that differentiates the people that can actually drive, aside from those who got one before the trade limit

  52. nascarfan

    ok if kaz was to give away a redbull car for free then he would done it months ago. no sense of the vettle challenge, you can get one at 35 b spec. we are getting the actual color

  55. Dan

    any one who watches this knows that vettle owns sorry buts , no one even stands a minimal chance except button but by now they will only tie if button wins teh remaining races , now if button does tie him, vettle has won more races so its impossible unless he drops out +D free X1 !!!!!

  56. Al

    It would take a miracle for anyone but Vettel to win the F1 Championship.

    Sebastian Vettel 309
    Jenson Button 185

    Races left in season 5
    Maximum points/race 25

    So, If Vettel fails to score another point for the rest of the season Button would have to win all 5 of the remaining races to win the championship by a single point.

    If Vettel scores a single point (10th place awards 1 point) and Button does anything but win every race the championship will be decided. Note that if Vettel only scored a single point in the last 5 races and Button won every race and the points were tied at 309 than Vettel would win. When there is a tie the winner is the person who wins the most races. Vettel has won 9 races and if Button wins every remaining race he would only win 7.

  57. Quakebass

    It says the ” “Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel” COLOR”. Does that mean we can put a Red Bull livery on one of our cars, or will you get the X1 race car?

  59. symustafa1996

    Its not the color, for your guys information. If you check his Twitter profile, he corrects some guy about this question. He says its the car. He can’t speak English, so probably just a bad translation.

  61. wilza52

    if this happens then the x2010 wont be rare anymore. people like me spend a long time saving up money, trying to do the sebastian vettel challenge or get to a high level. But millions of people are going to get them for free so the x2010 wont be special anymore.

    1. hardvibes

      You didn’t read the article properly.
      “We’ll give away the “Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel” COLOR” = S.Vettel LIVERY.

      But it WOULD be a great idea to give us the car itself since nearly a year has passed since GT5 release and I still don’t have my X2010.

    2. Killer Tiller

      And people like me bought it off eBay before Kaz brought in the restrictions hahaha. I have bronzed the first 2 SV events and will get the third eventually. Don’t need another one but I’ll take it for free

  67. Phillguy

    Is this the same car you get just by play the game… big deal. It isn’t even hard to get.

    1) Play B-Spec.
    2) Get Red Bull

  68. HuskyGT

    I´m proud to say I got mine the hard way, doing the Vettel challenge. Unfortunately, my ps3 got ylod. I got a new PS3 and I´m currently on level boredom… *cough* I mean, level 25+

    Having a free X2010 would be a great deal, instead of going through the nightmare I went to get the original one…

  71. BigBlue38

    It’s a cool gesture, but I probably won’t race it until I earn it. I think it’ll be more fun that way. I would’ve rather they have given us either the RB7 or the STR2 to commemorate Vettel’s first year in F1 as a driver.

  77. Jon64½

    It finally happened…I just blasted myself out of my office with my own vomit from the sight of people complaining about this…

  78. CWRules

    Why doesn’t he just give us the cars right now? Vettel is 124 points ahead with 5 races to go. 25 points are awarded for 1st place. He literally needs 1 point to win the championship, and that’s assuming the 2nd placed driver wins.

  80. axletramp

    That’s pretty cool, although I’m not a fan of the X2010… or Vettel… or Red Bull… but it’s a nice idea all the same. How about some more… DTM, LM, Rally, etc. ;)

  82. recca

    LOL it’s not very likely he’ll he won’t, should have came up with this at the beginning of teh season..there’s no way he’s not going to be crowned champion..well there is but odds are slim to nil

    2. Slint

      Sorry, i keep posting this…..
      There was some confusion about whether players would receive only the Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel “color”, or the car itself. Kazunori has since clarified his comments in another tweet, confirming the car itself will be awarded.

  87. tw34kfr34k

    dont really need another copy..
    anyway theres no way he’s gonna lose with only one point needed unless he drops dead before the next race :D

  88. SavageEvil

    I would have preferred if PD would give us all the RB7 F1 instead so we can have something different to race the Ferrari F1’s.

  91. jasr73

    Some valid points, I mean the car is just silly fast, I doubt humans could withstand the cornering G’s it generates and place it accurately on the road unless it came some anti-gravity racing suit. Still it is nice gentleman’s gesture from Kaz. I was lucky to briefly met Seb at the Melb. GP, he struck me as a really sincere fellow. Best of luck for the rest of the season SV.

  93. Big Ron

    Didn´t you all noticed, that the quote sais “color” and not “car”?

    Anyway I am not interested in the X2010, not even someone give it to me.

  94. Thug

    IF he wins?
    He’s already won pretty much…

    and I hope he doesn’t win. I don’t want a 3rd s. Vettel X2010 in my garage -.-

  97. TopGearFTW

    So basically if Vettel scores a single point in the next 5 races then? May as well just give us it now, if this season had turned out to have a similar conclusion to last year’s season, then maybe.

    1. Injured

      hahaha Well, those people who never log in anymore are screwwwwed. Spec 2 coming, they probably don’t even know about it. Yes internet, but not everybody spends any time looking at gaming news.

  103. Normalaatsra

    Worth selling? I have the S. Vettel one from coppering the Vettel challenge already.

    Plus, how much is it worth for selling one X2010?

    1. Scuderia Paul

      Nice as I have yet to buy an X2010. I do not particularly like it, as it feels so odd to drive, but it would be rude to say no to a free one.

    4. Slint

      There was some confusion about whether players would receive only the Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel “color”, or the car itself. Kazunori has since clarified his comments in another tweet, confirming the car itself will be awarded.

    1. Injured

      Well, those whingers just want the people who don’t have it already, to spend the time, that the people who do have it, “wasted” to get it.

    2. Slint

      Yeah, but those who get it free won’t be able to drive it because they haven’t persevered with the Vettel challenge.
      I don’t mind it being given away free, i got alot of pleasure from trying to bronze with a DS3. I finally did it by sticking with it and getting some sort of ability driving the X2010. I also got 1 by hitting Level 35 in B Spec/

  109. j8mie

    Come on Jenson, Lewis, Alonso and Webber. Just need Massa to wipe out Vettel then we can have a far more interesting F1 World Championship.

    It’s the best car that’s won this year, not the best driver. Shame.

    3. funrun

      What a pathetic comment… ya Vettel is not the best driver, cause you don’t feel the F1 season is interesting? Shame on your envious view. Vettel will be a dominant force in F1 for at least the next 10 years. I can already see him in Ferrari overalls in the near future.

  111. speedy_2

    How about some NEW DLC Cars? CTS-V? ZL-1 Camaro? Something? I only play GT5 now when a new Seasonal Race comes up. Which I finish that night. Check my used dealership…..which usually turns up nothing interesting, and then I turn the PS3 off for another week. GT5 has become EXTREMELY repetitive. Xbox is about to release Forza 4. They might be wise to crossover to the PS3 platform as well. I would buy a copy.

  114. Brandon

    Indeed, this is a very nice gesture, but I recall my journey to acquire the Red Bull x2010….. it took me about a full week to get this thing playing about 4 hours a day, and even to this day I have only ever bronzed. I remember sitting in my sim seat and having my hands clamped to that damn G27 for hours a day, drinking RED BULL (yup, I was in the spirit alright)!

    So many close calls… so many times I almost bronzed Nurburgring, one time I was off by about .15 seconds or something ridiculous, my heart was pounding so many times just thinking… “OH MY GOD, I’M GOING TO DO IT I’M GOING TO DO IT!!!”. I still remember spilling my red bull in the cup holder when I finally BRONZED this, because I pumped my fists so hard it just sloshed everywhere (G27 unaffected, carpet soaked).

    Then… I remember the horror I felt when a week after bronzing, they made it easier to bronze each track by something like 10 seconds. I could have done it in like 45 minutes if I had of just waited another week to try the event.

    Now they are going to give the damn thing away FOR FREE! I mean, good for everybody getting one now, they are a blast to drive (even if they do completely ruin your mental calibration for driving the real-world production cars in the game when you try to switch back from driving the X2010). I just can’t believe the struggle I went through (not talented enough to Gold, I won’t even try), and now it’s FREE!

    It’s bitter-sweet is all I guess.

    1. Bklingaman

      i did almost the same thing, except it was one weekend. i bronzed the first two easily on the first day. then came susuki……. SIX HOURRS later i was literally off by .07 of a second. my reaction was by no means “g” rated, my only saving grtace was the fact i was home alone and could spend another three hours before finally bronzing it. with a controller no less. and i had the same reaction as you when i read this……uter dismay.

    1. FlareKR

      He already won championship! Look at the points, it’s a massacre
      Driver Team Points
      1. Sebastian Vettel Red Bull 309

      Next race: Japanese Grand Prix, Oct 9 2:00am

  116. ed24f1

    It’s nice that they are rewarding loyal customers, but I think that this was the one car in the game that you actually had to work to get, and it was so rewarding when you got it, and to give it away is a little disappointing.

    Maybe there will be a Red Bull X2011 coming with the DLC…?

    1. Injured

      That’s highly doubtful. The X2010 took a great effort to create. Plus, it’s supposed to be just the one epic, unrestrained car. It isn’t a car that’ll spur future generation models.

    3. RACECAR

      Or perhaps a new livery just to seperate this one from the one already present in the game. Wouldn’t be too difficult to reskin a car I imagine and wouldn’t take much time.

  118. RockerBR

    Like it, I have one but another one is always welcome (now I can let my B spec use the older one and I use the new).
    I wish we could get his helmet and driving suit!!

    1. Doc

      You should use the older one yourself, GT5 has an engine ‘running in’ period, cars gain power over the first 5000 miles or so. if you do all the engine rebuild and oil change then you will find that a used car has more power and PP than it’s brand-new counterpart.

  120. suntoucher

    I’d rather wait for the F1 collection dlc package ….an F1 race car from red bull, mclaren, Mercedes, ferrari, lotus, and a Renault….all wrapped up neatly with the Singapore circuit (or spa) ;-)

    2. Jake

      I do not think that would be possible due to licensing issues, as mentioned above. It’s solvable, but I can’t really see it happening. I think FOM wants to keep the cars to their own series exclusively.

    3. RACECAR

      Well, you’ve got a big obstacle in the way of that (in terms of licensing anything other then Ferrari) and its a guy named Bernie.

  121. Wallbreaker

    I think it was a misunderstanding since his English skills are not the best ;) I think he meant to say the X2010 in the S.Vettel livery.

    3. GT_Die_Hard

      Cant be possible. There is aLe Mans Blue with Red Stripes in-game, and if you put it on any car you won’t get the stripen, unless you put it on the corvette c5 premium.

  122. kcheeb

    Doesn’t Kazunori’s post say the ‘”Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel” color’???

    Doesn’t sound like the car to me, just the color. Correct me if I’m not reading it properly :-)

    2. Injured

      haha you’re interpreting that wrongly. The X2010 has multiple liveries so that’s why you probably think it’s just the color we’re getting.

    3. Moontallico

      Actually it might really be the colour. It says “We’ll give away the “Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel” color”
      If it was the car it should say We’ll give away a Red Bull X2010 S.Vettel. Injured, what you’re saying about the multiple liveries is true, but those with other liveries aren’t the S.Vettel Red Bull x2010, those are the Prototype and the regular one with the diferent colours.

    4. Slint

      “There was some confusion about whether players would receive only the Red Bull X2010 S. Vettel “color”, or the car itself. Kazunori has since clarified his comments in another tweet, confirming the car itself will be awarded.”

  123. Gary

    So I spent months getting myself to level 40 in A-Spec, not to mention earning 20,000,000 credits to buy this thing, and now you can get it for free?

    1. Wallbreaker

      This is the S. Vettel edition which you can only win golding the S. Vettel X-Challenge or getting B-Spec Lvl. 35. The 20 million Cr. X2010 only has a standard livery.

    3. Doc

      @wallbreaker, x2010 RB livery is for all bronzes. silver is the coloured one and gold is the prototype.

      Lvl 40 in Bspec also gives you the RB one, so this’ll be my third one in the RB livery! woo! lol, wish he’d let us sell the bleeding things though…

  124. AstonMartinGT5

    awesome :D i’m mclaren fan but vettel has been supreme this year, a deserved world champion :D to win it at suzuka as well would be very special :D

    1. GTbyPlaystation

      It’s been so so boring this year. I watch the start of the race, see Vettel create a 10 second lead in a matter of laps, then go to bed lol…

    2. P400

      I think he doesn’t deserve the title of world champion, he only wins because his car is the best, its just faster than the other cars. But, only because a RedBull X2010 will be rewarded to all of us: GO VETTEL!

    5. Murcie

      It’s level 35 B-Spec and you get a free X2010, and Level 30 A-Spec unlocks the challenge to EARN a freee X2010. Depending on your times in that challenge determines what sort of livery it’s in.

  128. dudedo

    Well, Its not really an “if” he wins, because even though he hasnt mathematically won yet, in his mind and everyone elses, he has won. And thats a good thing, because I only have a DS3 and cant do the vettel challenge.

    3. Rob Haswell

      He could crash out or suffer a failure. That just means he’ll win it at one of the other five races (but no free X2010s for us)

    4. G

      I hear that, its damn near impossible to control that car with a DS3, it either slides off the track or grips too much and slams into a wall… it actually feels more like a car that should be on Ridge Racer

    6. HPUnleashed

      It’s not impossible, just a whole lot harder because you can’t control the steering that well. I’ve only managed to get all the bronze trophies, that’s why I was hoping Kazunori was going to give us the prototype not the basic X1 you get after winning the bronze trophies.

    8. HPUnleashed

      I wish you could sell the X2010 for at least 10 million credits, then I could get those Pebble Beach and 20 million credit cars.

    10. GTeeh

      For those who are saying they got all golds with a controller, they got them after the update that had the steering sensitivity option added.

      Before that, getting bronze was like getting gold.

    11. BlindZenDriver

      It is pretty much a done deal.

      Here is a run down for those not following F1.

      There are five races to go offering a maximum of 5×25=125 points and with Vettel 124 points in the lead he needs just one point to seal the deal.

      If Vettel scores no points in the final five races then Jenson Button he pass him but only by winning all five races. If Vettel gets the one point and Button wins the five races they will be on equal points and then Vettel wins due to having the most race wins.

      Just based on statistics Vettel is like 99% sure to get 1 point in Japan. In the 14 races so far he has 1st or 2nd every time except once where he “only” came in 4th. Finishing 10th will bring the needed 1 point.

      Vettel and the soft drink team is that good :-)

    13. Andrew

      But what if somehow he cannot complete the race? Man if that happens I whould be very frustated. But it can happen, so let’s all cheer toggether!

    14. GOTMAXPOWER

      @GTeeh”For those who are saying they got all golds with a controller, they got them after the update that had the steering sensitivity option added.

      Before that, getting bronze was like getting gold.”

      I got my bronze’s before that (and the super easy times were introduced), they were probably just as hard as all golds are now.

    15. 07_HSV_GTS

      I don’t really care if he wins or not, I have the Redbull X1 and there is no point in even having them in the game they are s***

    16. ziG

      @FlakeKR

      I’ve raced with both DS3 and Logitec G27, and although using a wheel is more realistic and harder work, you get nowhere near that range of control with the DS3. With the DS3 It’s harder to match revs, harder to judge steering input in and out of corners, harder to judge brake pressure. There is more physical travel in the pedals and the wheel itself than in the triggers and stick on the DS3. It easier to use Manual Transmission on the wheel too. I ain’t moaning, this game rocks and I make the DS3 work for me with set ups.

    1. Simon

      How did you come to that conclusion? It says log on within a week of him winning it and you’ll be gifted it, so when he wins it in Japan on October 9th log on before October 16th and you’ll be gifted it.

    1. FlareKR

      He’s already won, look at the points

      Driver Team Points
      1. Sebastian Vettel Red Bull 309
      2. Jenson Button McLaren 185
      3. Fernando Alonso Ferrari 184
      Next race: Japanese Grand Prix, Oct 9 2:00am

      I’m only looking foward to Button kicking Alonso’s arrogant a$$ to hell.

    2. baubry

      @FlareKR
      Hypothetically, Jenson wins the final 5 races. He wins 25 points a race.

      25 * 5 + 185 = 310

      Sebastian Vettel finishes 11th or worse every race. He wins 0 points per race, keeping his total at 309.

      It’s not over just yet… though there is only one person left who can stop him, and it’s virtually impossible to do so.

    3. Patrocles

      It takes an arrogant a$$ to know an arrogant a$$ so FlareKR is speaking of personal knowledge!

      anyway…as mentioned above it would have been cool if KY gave us the X1 with SV’s current livery!

      Diddo. Too bad its not a paintable one, but I understand. I’d rather have the RB7, but we all know that isn’t in the cards.

      Why not make a new premium model of vettels winning F1 redbull car, and give to us on xmas when he wins…… Most people have X1’s by now lol

    2. omgitsbees

      I really do not think we are getting the actual race car, but one of the colors. If you guys read the tweet more closely, no where does it actually say we are getting the car itself. But it does say we are getting the color.

      I see what your saying, I think that we’ll get the car but it will be in that color, the S. Vettel decals. Kaz wouldn’t rip off people like that and there isn’t an S. Vettel paint chip.

      He has 303 points, he already won. He can walk backwards in his track shorts on Suzuka and by the amount of points still win the F1 championship.
      Thanks for the free X1. I’ll be ready to pick it up on the 9th.

    5. Button

      Does this mean that it will only happen if he wins it in Suzuka? The only way he could not win is to end up crashing or somethin’

      @Isocuda
      FOM (Formula One Management) owns the rights to all the cars and car designs in Formula 1, save for one team (Scuderia Ferrari), the longest surviving competitor in F1. They’ve essentially been grandfathered into their contract that gave them the rights to the designs/liveries of their cars. FOM licenses are required for the use of the other cars and liveries. I would love a Red Bull F1 car, or even a Toro Rosso though. I’d love to see/feel the difference between a top tier team and a mid tier team.

      @FlareKR
      While statistically minute, there IS a possibility that Sebastian Vettel could lose. The ONLY driver who can stop him is Jenson Button, who would need 5 wins in a row to pull ahead. That’s assuming Vettel crashes out or finishes 11th or worse every race. Considering he hasn’t crashed out of a race all year, and his lowest finishing position is 4th at his home GP, I don’t see that happening.

      But yeah, he’s pretty much got it in the bag. He only has to score 1 point for the next 5 races.

When Gran Turismo 5 was released, something unusual in the game’s Kyoto Photo Travel Location caught the attention of our community: a curiously detailed little cat. He blinked, turned his head, looked around, and generally drove people crazy.
