Another week, another leak: we now know the identity of another car that’s on its way to GT Sport in a future update.

While we’re all still having fun with GT Sport’s new wet weather mechanic and playing around with some classic J-tin, there’s another game update on the way.

Bugatti has become the first car manufacturer to build a 300mph road car from the factory. Like the Veyron before it, the Chiron has become the first standard, road-legal car to smash clean through what was previously thought an impossible landmark figure.

There’s a bit of a spread of pace in this week’s GT Sport Daily Races, with a couple of high-speed race car combos and something a little more sedate.

After what we’d describe as a carefully managed car list reveal for GRID over the last couple of months, Codemasters has decided to unplug the cork. Although there’s still just over six weeks until the game hits the shelves, we’ve now got what Codies describes as “almost” the full car list in one hit.

GT Sport’s new Time Trial mode has updated again, bringing some new features into play.

Millennial Esports, the company behind the World’s Fastest Gamer (WFG) competition, has revealed two new high-profile investors. Former Formula One drivers Juan Pablo Montoya and Rubens Barrichello have invested in the company as part of a $5m round of fundraising.

Team Mercedes-Benz — Anthony Felix (USA), Cody Latkovski (AUS), and Bernal Valverde (COS) — has won the Manufacturer Series title at the third World Tour event, in New York City.
