GT5's Indy Road Course is a mix of both the F1 and MotoGP layouts.
They took the current MotoGP layout, but runs it in the reverse way, as F1 did, and skips the Snake Pit (the twisty section for MotoGP).
How can it be a mix when it's exactly like the 2006 and earlier F1 layout? The MotoGP layout shares most of the same track, but it's completely different in two parts. The GT5 version is exactly like this.

The base is taken from the GT5, but it's heavily modified. All the trees are changed (they look better from certain angles but at the same time they have way less polys, compared to the GT5 ones), walls in the surroundings are better modeled, there's 3D grass behind the barriers and some small plants near the road.
On the other hand Gran Valley is still 100% the same model, which was used in GT5 and GT4. Only the road and "grass" textures (only the closest ones) were changed since GT4.

I've said this before, but I have the strangest feeling that they will reveal Bathurst and Seattle at the same time. I think this because maybe they are not counting the goodwood track because it is too short? Well I don't know what will happen but I'm hopeing my theory will happen?

This is the F1 track. It is also the track in GT5:
This is the MotoGP track:
Note that it goes counter-clockwise, unlike the car course.
Grand-Am has recently used this course, which is similar to the GT5 one:
And here is what it will be next year for IndyCar:

Dude! That is a great post that really cleared some things up. Thanks man!
And that new layout for Indycar....
It looks like the most fun of them all. PD, are you guys seeing this? Let's keep these track layouts relevant, please. The entire area is already modelled, just a few small changes and we've got a 2014 party. (and there ain't no party like a 2014 party..)

I too would love to see these kinds of updates, leaving the current version of the track in the game as well. Relatively small amount of work for PD but adding to the track layout count and giving us more options for racing.

Not confirmed for GT6. Just appeared in the Acura NSX trailer and that was it...

This "relatively small amount of work" includes getting a whole team there with equipment every time minor changes are made to a track, so that people won't complain how inaccurate it's represented in the game.
I must say I'd rather have one additional new track introduced to the game than, say, five yearly updates to the same track.

What? Why? Nobody here is asking for millimeter accuracy on these updates. If PD can't make a couple small layout changes to an existing environment, then what good are they as programmers/gamemakers?
snowgt, I respect your credentials, but your statement sounds like an excuse. Please tell me that this excuse is just a placeholder...

Yes, relatively minor. When a new section is added to, or taken away from a track, PD need only model the changes to the track, not the entire track. 75, 80, maybe 90% of the course remains the same, the scenery remains the same. It's maybe 5-10% of the work of adding a whole new track, which is, relatively minor.
We will have to wait for actual confirmation. Remember the Citroen GTbyCitroen trailer and all the venues it showed off? A good number of those (the concrete track, the night city track with the hill and that parking garage) were never seen in the actual game.

In all honestly, I should remove the Ginza District photomode area from the list as well.

Plus don't forget some new tracks hinted in Gran Turismo 5 Prologue weather widget tracks.
- Estoril
- Hockenheim
- Imola
- Jerez
- Magny-Cours
- Shanghai
- Zolder
From the 11 tracks hinted initially only 4 are currently present on GT6: Brands Hatch, Monza, Silverstone, Spa-Francorchamps.

My thoughts excatly. 👍 So that's why Kaz is confident in doing monthly Track DLC, hmm makes sense with those hinted tracks being just that. Nice.

I just thought those hinted tracks could've been good examples of being track DLC. Than again, I'll be awaiting for any classic GT tracks such as Tahiti Road.

Nobody here is asking for that kind of accuracy? A lot of what I'm reading here is criticism for the tiniest inaccuracies. I have read posts from people that wanted the company logos painted on the ground on some track to be changed, because they had changed from one year to the next. As if that would make any difference to playing the game. (and if I hear anyone mentioning the word "immersion" again (like they couldn't "feel" the game, if the wrong billboards are on the side of the road), I'm going to scream). Sorry, just had to get that out. I wasn't talking about your quotes in particular here.
The standard that many players and, by the looks of it, also PD expect the game to deliver, does not allow just quickly changing a corner. If they make an additional variation, the whole track is updated to the current state. They wouldn't just take a track version that's a couple of years old, put a changed corner in after making a couple of photos and pretend that track ever existed in that configuration in real life at any time.
Yes, it's true that it probably wouldn't take nearly as long as making a new track from scratch, but in my opinion it's an illusion to think that PD would go for a quick & dirty solution.

That statement bears no relevance to my quoted response. I didn't ask for quick and dirty. Send out the scanning crew, scan all the changes to the track to the cm, return to the lab, put it together. If there are significant changes to some of the scenery, or parts of the rest of the track were patched or whatever, they can look at that too. Either way, it adds a new layout to the game and it's a tiny percentage of work compared to a new layout from scratch.

Speaking of classic tracks, I recall a post on here roughly a year ago stating a few of the classic GT tracks names were found by a users/code breaker. It went on to list 15 tracks or more and all the oldies but, goodies were there. At the time the thinking was DLC. Now more than ever a classic track DLC would be just what's needed.

Now that the 7 new tracks have been confirmed, can we figure out what the 19 new variations are (source: http://www.gran-turismo.com/gb/news/00_1910783.html)?
We know:
Mt Panorama
That makes for 12 variations, plus the number of variations of Matterhorn, and that is already making a few assumtions. So unless Matterhorn has 7 variations, or the given number was wrong, we are still missing quite a few.
