GT Sport Daily Races: Lakes, Straights and Cabriolets

The Daily Races are taking us on a world tour of their own this week, with a trip to two of the world’s most famous race tracks, and a notorious combo from Gran Turismo’s past.

That latter option comes in Race A. Long-time Gran Turismo players will recognize the association between Tsukuba Circuit and the first-generation Mazda MX-5/Miata/Roadster, and automatically shiver with dread. Have no fear though, as this Daily Race is just seven laps long rather than several hours. As it’s a provided car rather than a garage vehicle, you won’t get to show off your livery editor skills.

Race B takes us to Brazil and the famous Interlagos circuit — or Autodromo Jose Carlos Pace, to give it its official name. Here you’ll enjoy a five-lap sprint in the Gr.3 race car of your choice (and there’s plenty to choose from).

The endurance option this week is a proper endurance track: Circuit de la Sarthe. Home to the 24 Hours of Le Mans, which ran only a weekend ago in the real world, you’ve got free rein on Gr.1 race cars, which covers everything from classic Group C cars up to modern race-winners — and even some of the Vision GT cars.

All three races will run through to Monday, July 1.
