The latest game update for Gran Turismo Sport is now available. It’s a relatively lightweight item, coming in at just 184.4MB — one of the smallest updates we’ve seen — and mainly centers on tweaks.

As you can see from the image above, you’re soon going to see the Gran Turismo name plastered all over a new race car. For many fans, this is a sure sign that a car might be coming to a GT game at some point in the future — and it’s certainly something blowing up on social media — but we’re going to sound a note of caution.

Lotus is a brand well known for finding ways to go faster. The very first Lotus was a modified Austin 7 which founder Colin Chapman built to be lighter and more powerful, to compete in trials racing. Chapman’s principles guide Lotus to this day, with even the all-electric Evija being both as light and as powerful as possible.

Polyphony Digital has announced a new update for GT Sport, which will arrive this week on Thursday July 16.

Monday mornings might not be everyone’s favorite time of the week — more so when it’s Monday the 13th — but for GT Sport players it’s the dawn of a new set of Daily Races. This week’s set of three include a one-make for fans of the Prancing Horse, some classic GT Sport fare, and an even more classic Le Mans event.

Spielberg has not proven a happy hunting ground for 2018 GT Sport world champion, and 2020 Toyota Racing Series champion Igor Fraga.

This year’s real world motorsports calendar has, so far, been rubbish. Right now we should be half way through the 2020 season but, following the last-minute cancellation of the Australian event in March and almost every event since either going in the bin or into a perpetual holding pattern, we’re only one race down.

Usually on GTPlanet, we’re looking outwards. As a media channel, we look to conduct interviews with some of the most interesting people in the motoring, motorsports, and racing game worlds, to bring their thoughts and opinions to our readers.

2018’s GT Sport World Champion Igor Fraga made his debut in FIA Formula 3 this weekend, and it’s safe to say that not everything went quite to plan.

GT Sport has flipped its 2020 yearbook into a new week, and that means it’s time for a new set of three Daily Races. The mix is the typical spread from low speed (very low speed this time) to high, but there’s an unusual twist too.

It seems like months since we found out that 2018 GT Sport World Champion Igor Fraga would be making his FIA Formula 3 debut, but at long last it’s taking place this weekend.

Fanatec has joined forces with NASCAR Heat 5, which launches next week, to become official steering wheel partner. The agreement will see Fanatec supply equipment for the official eNASCAR Heat Pro League, as well as a prominent branding position in the game itself.
