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.

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.

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.

We’re still a little way out from DIRT 5’s launch date in October, but the Codemasters team is still revealing details about the off-road racing title as we build up towards that window.

The summer sun has made its grand return to Forza Horizon 4 to begin a fresh week, and a fresh new season. Series 24 officially kicks off this week and, on schedule, brings new content and a new feature to the festival.

With just over a week to go (or less) until F1 2020 arrives, Codemasters has revealed some more information about the variety of features the game will include.

There’s a rare chance to get your hands dirty in the newest set of GT Sport Time Trials, which start today.

Project CARS 3 is the third entry in the Project CARS series, which first arrived back in 2015. The series, developed by Slightly Mad Studios — which was also previously responsible for Need for Speed Shift and Shift 2 — has always been available on both PlayStation and Xbox consoles, along with PC via Steam.

The second stage of the official Gran Turismo Sport 2020 FIA Online Championship comes to a close this weekend. That means we’re only a few days away from the third and final stage starting up, and PD has duly revealed the calendar that will round out the season.

The 2020 Formula 3 season finally begins in Austria this weekend, and with it comes a new chapter for Gran Turismo World Champion Igor Fraga.

Renowned photographic press agency Getty Images has announced a partnership with Polyphony Digital to provide motorsport photography services to the digital realm.

Playground Games has given us a preview of the next update for Forza Horizon 4. After unforeseen circumstances and a technical hiccup disturbed the release of Series 23, the livestream for Series 24 marks a return to regular service. The latest update is due to drop later this week.

The Forza game series, both Forza Motorsport and Forza Horizon, has banned the Confederate flag from appearing in its titles. Officially known as the “Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia”, the Confederate flag has been the subject of numerous controversies in recent years — something that has been magnified over the last few weeks in light of ongoing real-world current events.

It’s a new week in GT Sport, and that means Polyphony Digital has delivered us a fresh set of three new Daily Races. After a slightly unusual triplet last week it’s back to more routine racing to see out June. The three new races require very little by way of explanation.

With just two months to go until Project CARS 3 arrives on our consoles and PCs, Slightly Mad Studios has started a developer blog to give some insight into the game.

It’s been a busy week for Assetto Corsa Competizione fans. First, 505 Games released the console version of the game — which we rather enjoyed, despite a few gripes — and now there’s a DLC pack on its way.

It’s only two weeks now until the 2020 iteration of the F1 game series lands, and to mark the occasion Codemasters has unveiled a new video.

The Spring sun has appeared across the UK once more, heralding the beginning of a fresh season in Forza Horizon 4. A truncated Series 23 also comes to an end this week, with the last batch of content now available.

When Assetto Corsa Competizione first launched on PC, there was one question ringing out from console gamers: when do we get it? Kunos Simulazioni had previously ported its first title, the renowned PC simulation Assetto Corsa, across to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One back in 2016.

One thing we weren’t expecting to see this year was Project CARS 3. The announcement earlier this month came as a bit of a surprise, and now we have an official launch date: August 28.
