Hmm, Urano in Italian means Uranus. Speaking of that, the planet Uranus has an atmosphere that is composed mainly of hydrogen. Very... interesting reference there.
Not Real (Dead giveaway is the photoshopped car at Martinsville) and has NO relation to Bertone (An actual Manufacterer in VGT) so it doesn't belong in this thread, actually no thread since just another fan made render.

I believe the description of the picture set itself should answer this and all the other questions about this whole thing (and I'm surprised no one mentioned this):
School project of a Skoda racing car suitable for Gran Turismo Game.
So there you go, it's a school project. An unusual school project, but a school project nonetheless. It could become a VGT if the VAG Group allowed the use of the young man's design for the game itself, but so far, it's just an idea launched by a student. It would explain the clay model, if anything...
Whoa! Now I wish that Polyphony would obtain a Skoda licence so this can be in the game because that thing looks stunning! Like a BTCC car with jet fighter wings on the back!
Personal interpretation of Vision GT for Bertone
Giulio was involved from the very start to design a vehicle that would represent at the best both Bertone and Gran Turismo brands, and the sad outcome did not stop him from continue its development according to an even more free and personal interpretation, and this is the result of the work he have done in about a week. You will never see this car in the videogame, but in designer's heart, the Bertone Mesos Vision GT will be the last brick that he dedicate to the work done for this fantastic brand, which has ruled the automotive design for decades through its visionary lenses.
