Course predictions for final round 2015?

[christ]

On facebook people were suggesting Circuit of the Americas - which I'd never heard of. Any other predictions?

Likely an existing track, my guess is if they are going to use the LMP2 it might be Le Sarthe.

any circuit is welcome as long as it is not the green hell

 

[CRG Racer24]

Im guessing, since the unfortunate accident that happened there recently, we can probably rule out anything Nurburgring.. IMO.

 

[Cowboy]

Maybe Bathurst? Spa?

The reasoning for COTA (Circuit of the Americas) is that the Nissan GTR-LM Nismo LMP1 was tested there extensively before it broke cover. Then last year at, if I recall correctly, the WEC Event there, some GTP members reported a strong Gran Turismo presence, with Simulators, banners, etc. Of course this doesn't exactly mean anything, but it's an interesting theory.

If the final round uses the LMP2 car, then it'd probably be something like Silverstone GP or La Sarthe. If it's the LMP1, it may be a new track like COTA or an updated version of La Sarthe.

VIR. No bias here nope, not at all.

I will not be too surprised if it was the Red Bull Ring or Nurburgring GP

if its red bull ring it will make things so much easier for me lol I don't think it is going ti be redbull ring simply because the things I want are always hard for me xD

 

[Growling]

RBR is far too short a lap for the final round I think.

 

[mark wolf]

Its not sierra because they wont finish laying orange apex cones before gt academy is over

 

[necky16]

It could be something like the silverstone GP circuit

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Don't know, don't care... I'm in "go mode" and ready to tear up whatever track they serve up.

Given the last few Academies, it will be a real track that has yet to be used.

Monza - Too simplistic and I can just imagine hair-pulling cone placement
La Sarthe - If it was where we'd start approaching Indianapolis ending at Terte Rouge, that would make sense. If we're asked to run an entire lap only to have it invalidated and stopped at Ford chicane, I will be breaking my wheel this year.
Spa - Already did it last year.
Daytona Road Course - Doesn't feel like there's enough corners.
Fuji - Feasible but boy, do I hate this track.
Indy Road Course - Not long enough.
Laguna Seca - If the car isn't race-spec, possible. Otherwise, I don't see it happening.
Nurburgring - The GP/F version would be a reasonable fit for any machine.
Suzuka - A little long but would make sense, especially if the car's the LMP. This would be my prediction.
Tsukuba - Next!
Twin Ring - Already used in 2012
Ascari - Too long.
Brands Hatch - Possible.
Bathurst - Up to a GT3 machine, yes but the top section is rather iffy to run LMPs.
Red Bull Ring - Too simple.

If it's a brand new race track, I believe that only COTA would apply. If the Gran Turismo team hasn't been at a track, they won't have a model for it.

When are the remaining countries gonna be announced? It is just around 26hrs the time trials start
ps:-I know the question does not fit in this topic,thought better to ask in one of the threads instead of creating New one

Kart Space, obviously.

 

[smskeeter23]

In before "Interlagos"...

Which I could actually see as a possibility.

 

[drspeedy]

race camp will be in yas marina in abu dhabi guys !!!!!

 

[Hardyx]

race camp will be in yas marina in abu dhabi guys !!!!!

So dissapointed :\

Yes, aesthetically Yas Marina rocks but I'd rather prefer the classic and legendary Silverstone to be honest

 

[drspeedy]

the fitness there will be much harder than silverstone . summer in middle east is really hot

 

[CodeRedR51]

race camp will be in yas marina in abu dhabi guys !!!!!

As far as I have heard, that's for the European countries only.

 

[Filthywzard]

Yas marina

We learned last year that Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Suzuka, and Bathurst were the first 4 tracks to be certified by the FIA. We haven't heard anything since, but it seems logical that Red Bull Ring would also have the certification as the newest real world circuit. Of these, Suzuka 2014 makes the most sense for the final. However, I'm hopeful for a new track. COTA,
Dubai, and Yas Marina would all make sense for various reasons, but anything new would be great.

Yas Marina would be plausible since Finals are being held there. 👍

 

[Nicko]

I'm hoping for Suzuka for the final round, love that track.

 

[BMWcrazy]

Willow Springs.

 

[scca_ziptie]

Silverstone or Red Bull Ring are my two candidates. Silverstone for obvious reasons (all but EU finals will be held there). Red Bull Ring because the track limits are easily policed/set.

 

[Zlork]

It would be nice if it's a new track as Dubai or Abu Dhabi

 

[ODB]

Willow Springs.

Yeah, Big willow would be just epic (oh god anything else but willow!!!!)
