I know everyone here will already be well aware of his achievement but nice to see him getting wider recognition outside of the GT community.

This is true. Almost every ad break during Le Mans that I saw featured him, saying how he'd gone from computer game to racing IRL.

It's certainly not a board game. LOL

PS3 is a (type of) computer, so yeah.
