Fernando Alonso hasn’t quite been at his best since returning to McLaren in 2015. Plagued with numerous reliability issues, the tenure has been anything but a showcase of his driving talent.

You can’t keep a good car down and the proof of that lies in the returning Pagani Zonda. The V12 glamour model arises once again after leaving the world in 2013 to bear another custom, one-off by the name of Fantasma Evo.

Studio 397 have released a number of images showing off the upcoming McLaren 650S GT3 DLC for rFactor 2. Built entirely in-house, the 650S GT3 debuted in the McLaren-sponsored World’s Faster Gamer eSports competition.

Earlier this year Sauber and Honda announced a partnership for the 2018 F1 season. Said partnership saw the Swiss team exchanging year-old Ferrari engines for those supplied by the Japanese automaker.

Famed engine manufacturer Cosworth may be set to announce a surprise return to the F1 grid in 2021.

F1 2017 is shaping up to be the biggest leap for the Codemasters series yet. Whether it be the return of classic machines from the sport’s past or an equal focus on realism and fantasy, this year’s official F1 game will have plenty to offer players next month.

Last week Polyphony Digital quietly announced an official release date for Gran Turismo Sport. The mid-October date brought with it an updated website, one which now states over 150 cars will be part of the game from launch.

While the future of the British Grand Prix remains uncertain, this weekends qualifying provided a surprise at the hallowed grounds of Silverstone. Lewis Hamilton drove to an impressive pole position in today’s Qualifying for the British Grand Prix.

It isn’t everyday when the idea of being wrong about something excites you. That “something” refers to the release date of Gran Turismo Sport. Believed to hit store shelves in November at the earliest, GT Sport is now confirmed for October.

The seventh generation of video game consoles has been an unprecedented one. While not an entirely new concept, this generation introduced refreshed consoles in the form of the PlayStation 4 Pro and Xbox One X.

Whether it’s Ferrari’s return to form or the recent controversy at Baku, this year’s F1 season has proven itself unpredictable. The surprises continue heading into this weekend’s British Grand Prix, albeit with an unfortunate one.

Last year Kunos announced its initial plan for an all-new Ferrari car pack celebrating 70 years of the brand. Currently in development, the all-new car pack will include seven of the brand’s most iconic showpieces.

The E3 hype has finally elapsed, bringing things back down to their normal levels. This year will prove itself to be plenty expensive when it comes to racing games, beginning with F1 2017. 

As if the events at Baku two weeks ago weren’t enough, this weekend’s qualifying starts off on a similar note. Lewis Hamilton starts eighth, while Sebastian Vettel sits behind Mercedes’ Valterri Bottas.

Gran Turismo Sport had a fair showing at this year’s E3, delivering fans an all-new trailer and release window of this fall.

Codemasters continues to reveal the classic machines included in F1 2017 with over one month remaining on the clock. The ninth addition to the classic roster flashes back to the winning ways of Renault in the V8 era.

Turn 10 Studios revealed Forza Motorsport 7 at E3 last month. Set for release this October, the seventh entry introduces players to the game’s cover star: Porsche’s 911 GT2 RS.

Last week we reported the install size for Forza Motosport 7 will be a monstrous 100GB, the largest yet. It’s a cause for concern for the average user, meaning Forza 7 will consume 20% of the standard hard drive.

Last month, Slightly Mad Studios revealed the various pre-order editions of Project CARS 2. The available physical options included the Ultra, Collector’s, and Limited Editions. Starting today, the digital versions of the Standard and Deluxe Editions join the list leading to the game’s release this September.

UPDATE: Stefano Casillo of Kunos Simulazioni debunked the rumors of this car’s inclusion in Assetto Corsa (at least in an official capacity) on Twitter. In response to the trailer, Casillo said “we have no involvement in this at this stage. No idea about what they mean about the console thing.” The original article remains below. Thanks to GTPlanet member Wiz for pointing this out.
