Senna content coming soon?

[Bo]

I guess positive senna vibes are less relevant than all the criticism posts

Sorry, but they weren't Senna vibes. They were just random roleplay drivel. They were positive though, so 👍

In terms of the time trials, it appears you only have to do one to get the 97T, correct?

Just try to find video of Monaco through the tunnel from 1980s. I challenge you.

That was fairly easy. Pretty dark though.

Hope so, literally dying to drive providing the sound isn't messed up
Mind you I wouldn't care if I had to grind to get it. An absolute dream car. I wish there was more convo on the car in this thread!!!

Well they both use the 97T, but one could give you that and one could give you the kart, and that's it. I really hope not.

Too dark to see anything, and that's an actual film recording; not radio broadcast.

Excellent video, though. 👍

Wait did we get info on time trials? Please tell!

1980 F1 race at Monaco


Not onboard, but still decent video of the tunnel around the 3 minute mark.

The problem with these examples is that they're tricky examples, the two tracks in question have no difficulties in finding good references for the whole track.

Wait did we get info on time trials? Please tell!

No. We got a prediction from a Brazilian who's jumping the gun. It's a fairly likely prediction, but still just that.

It's a definite date at least. Chin up, bro

No, it's official. On the Sony BR blog.

A Brazilian jumping the gun, so it's senna?

There is no conclusive proof that these two circuits are the only ones being reworked to include their 80s counterparts, but indeed this is true.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

It would be nice if they had more content to reveal

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

No, it's official. On the Sony BR blog.

Not convinced... Why only in Brazil? Why not elsewhere?

 

[Samus]

Not convinced... Why only in Brazil? Why not elsewhere?

You're not convinced....by an official Sony blog? As for why only in Brazil (so far), do I really have to explain that one?

Anyway, google translation:

Since the announcement of the partnership between Gran Turismo and the Instituto Ayrton Senna, last year, we are working hard to reveal more details on how you can celebrate the life and achievements of racing legend.Today I want to share with you all that the 27th of May, a content update arrives for GT6 owners, including the Tribute to Ayrton Senna, who is the culmination of this long-term partnership.With content update Tribute to Ayrton Senna will make trace the roots of Senna's racing career and relive some of the best pilot, including turns in pole position in circuits like Brands Hatch and Monza.

Starting May 27, the section dedicated to Ayrton Senna will be available in the main menu when you download the update.The content includes a release of the first karts Senna, built by DAP, which helped him to start his racing career.And the Lotus 97T, which sena piloted during their second season of Formula 1in 1985, when he recorded seven poles.





Earning a bronze trophy or better in any of the Challenges of Senna and you receive the car.Also, races are the Challenges of Senna in the same circuit where Senna recorded their times, and you have a mission to hit these record times in turns.These are:

I'm kinda wondering how you can see anything on radio...

I hope for some kind of Lotus race around Monaco, despite it's licensing issues.

 

[GranTurismo guy]

Maybe they think they deserve a little bonus, but we soon found it hahaaaaaa

 

[fagnerpc]

Well there is no mention of the kart, so I hope so.

According to Playstation Blog Brazil, the go-kart will be available in the Dealership (along with the Lotus 97T), without any challenge related (at least they don't mention anything about)

 

[ITCC_Andrew]

Because Senna is Brazilian?

The signal for it is how onboard videos were broadcast before satellites...

I meant no mention of an event for the kart so either there isn't one and that's it or they've not shown the full hand yet. I hope it's the latter, because two time trials would be very weak.

 

[Hypergolem]

If im not mistaken, Monza and Brands Hatch have almost no change at all (monza the first chicane, thats it). What I would love to see is the very old Monza layout with the oval and the variants.
Also Im still hoping for the Interlagos track.

Actually the Lesmo bends were modified to reduce speed in the later years. I hope they recreated the original Lesmos as they were.

I hope that's true. Can't be bothered to put more time into grinding the game's dreadful career mode or seasonal events.

Which is why I don't believe it is what PD have actually done.

You guys know theres a post on the US PS Blog right?
