You've probably all read about the B-Spec comp for SE owners, but I'm intrigued by the screenshot that's used in the article.

Does anyone know where it's from? My B-Spec mode certainly doesn't look much like that.

Is it a preview shot of online B-Spec?

EDIT: I've added a comparison shot; the top picture is how MY B-Spec looks (the only extra feature seems to be the sector times). The bottom picture is the example from Jordan's post. I really like that layout - especially the pictorial cars along the top.

That's the live timing monitor. Hit the button with three lines on it when in a race. The one with an open square will bring you back to the default view.

Edit - oops no, it's not. I just glanced at the shot quickly. Looks like the default view except scrunched into a box in the middle.

I understand that it's the LTM, but does YOURS look like that in B-Spec? Mine certainly doesn't (or in replays).

I'm talking about the fact that the shrunk camera view is centered, the cars are displayed pictorially at the top etc...

EDIT: Ah, Azhur edited while I was answering :D

@Biffco, I think GT4's B-Spec DID look like that, but this screenshot definitely lists a 458 Italia! I wonder if this is (as suggested) an early build?
 
I thinks thats B-Spec online mode that will be released, and thats just a released preview but from where i don't know
 
In the article you took the image from, many of the comments say that it is from an early pre-release build. It's not from the actual game. Not sure why, as it looks much better.
 
It has been stated in other threads that it is an old preview build of gt5 and it was edited for being redundant with some information.

Excellent, top answer :D

Do you have a link to any of those threads - the intransigent vBulletin search is being less than helpful :(

"Jordan:
It’s a pre-release mock-up published on the official GT site and doesn’t represent the menu implemented in the final version of the game."

From the article you took the image from.
