Quick writer or inside knowledge .

(I know the former to be true obviously).

Thread currently going, Please can you merge the Two together. Thanks

 

Ok, this is awesome. The best driver in F1 in the best simcade in gaming, sounds perfect

 

The Hamiltons - Lewis on GT:Sport, Nick on PCARS 2.

 

Surprised they didn't get him to try out the PSVR functionality.

 

GT are the top of the top!

 

That's really cool! You can see the passion aiming for the ultimate lap.

 

I want kimi Räikkönen and his radio commentary.

 

1:59 @ Suzuka for Lewis in the AMG GT3

 

Did you see the feed back on the wheel trying to go back to centre

 

Lewis has two different shirts on throughout the duration of this video, implying he spent at least two days in Kaz's company.

 

Now you too can learn how to be a vegan, clog up Instagram with pictures of you in faux specs and change your accent to a fake American-ish one.

#Blessed.

 

Or Valteri “minimal talking!” Bottas

 

Agreed!! Lewis is Phenomenal. He will go down as one of the greatest; even if he retired now. Super excited he’ll be apart of GT Sport

 

The Vettel's challange back in GT5 was very difficult... but most of the challange was based in such car behaviour... now we can have a try with a (at least) GT3 car. My concerns are: Is, in this case, Hammilton pushing really hard?

 

this is... AMAZING!!!

 

Hope it's not like the intro to 6(5?), where you had to do a lap to start the game but, the GTAcademy guy would stop the lap every 10 seconds to give you tips. Wasn't smooth and resuming in the middle of a curve with a wheel is fun when you let go and aren't holding the wheel at the correct angle when it resumes.
And no one can forget Jeff Gordon's "Remember the car is heavy"!

That said, I'm looking forward to see what they do with Hamilton.

 

Eurgh. Egotistical narcissist.

 

This is nothing but beneficial for Gran Turismo. Anyone who says otherwise is just questioning the character of Hamilton and not his talents and what he can provide for PD the company and Gran Turismo the franchise.

He's the most popular Formula 1 drivers in the world, so I see this bringing technical information and outside interest to Gran Turismo.

 

THIS!!!!!

 

This is awesome news! I can use some protips on how to use twitter, facetime and instagram

 

This is great news for the GT franchise and the new game.

Bringing in the second most winningest current Formula 1 driver to be in the game can only do wonders going forward .

 

I have a feeling Hamilton might retire after he wins this years F1, maybe GT Sport is the
other thing he was talking about
Gran Turismo Sport is shaping up to be outstanding

 

I'm not Lewis' biggest fan off the track, but he's a much better driver than I am so it'll be interesting to hear what he says. Still can't see myself picking up GT:S to be honest, but they're slowly pulling me in closer

 

Interesting. Did anyone see Lewis fight the wheel on a corner? I've never had to/been able to do that. Ever.

 

Can't wait for the GT5 Gordon-style Hamilton model.

Jokes aside, I wonder where in the game this coaching will take place.

 

Probably Racing etiquette?

 

Nice PD!
