In a surprise move, Playground Games has dropped the latest Forza Horizon 4 content update two days ahead of schedule.

Last month we got the very welcome news that DiRT Rally 2.0 is coming. The original has a reputation as brutally realistic, and now we’re seeing just how much Codemasters puts into the game to achieve that. Even down to the pace notes.

The Dodge Demon is already an insanely fast straight-line ride. For some, that might not be enough, and Wisconsin-based Speedkore Performance Group has the answer.

Another ten players have booked their places in the GT Sport Nations Cup final next month, with Germany’s Mikail Hizal (TRL_LIGHTNING) leading the way.

It’s a busy weekend for racing esports. Not only has the GT Sport FIA European Final just wrapped, it’s also the first day of the ForzaRC World Championship — and there’s $100,000 on the line.

When we first found out about the Shelby Mustang GT500 back in March, we were pretty impressed. Then in May, we got another sneak peek at it. Now thanks to the a sneaky Instagram user, we get to see it in all its glory.

Polyphony Digital’s hinted at it, confirmed it, and now, we’ve seen it in action. Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is coming to GT Sport, and it will be arriving at the end of this month.

The drivers come from across the continent, representing 11 countries. They’ll be vying for the opportunity to take part in the inaugural World Final next month. Two thirds of them will call this the last stop on their tour however; there’s only space at the Worlds for the top 10, you see.

We are only a few days away from the release of the Spintires: Mudrunner expansion, American Wilds. Now we are getting our first look at all the new vehicles that will head to the game.

It’s the weekend, and for the fourth time in a row, that means a pair of new cars in Forza Horizon 4. Say hello to the BMW i8 Roadster and the Honda Civic Coupe GRC.

In a world where you can’t even buy an Italian supercar with a gated shifter, Toyota has emerged as the latest champion of the row-your-own approach.

When Polyphony Digital released the schedule for the FIA GT Championship EMEA Regional Finals, we suspected a new track would be revealed at the event — just as the Austrian World Tour introduced Fuji Speedway.

Codemasters continues to keep F1 2018 up to speed with a new update, dubbed 1.12. Now available on all platforms, the latest update resolves a few issues for this year’s F1 racer. The eagle eyed will notice the latest patch skips over a 1.11 update — worry not as the two have rolled into one.

Right on cue, Forza Horizon 4 has ditched the winter blues for the refreshing hues of spring time.

It looks like news on the next entry in the Test Drive Unlimited franchise is beginning to perk up again. In December 2016 we reported Bigben Interactive had secured the rights to the series.

The following is part of GTPlanet’s exclusive coverage of the 2018 FIA Gran Turismo Championship, as our editorial team travels around the world to get you special access to the events and competitors.

The SEMA show is quickly approaching. This means we are starting to get our first taste of wild concept vehicles from big name manufacturers. One of those automakers is Ford, which is rolling out five custom Mustangs this year.

The inaugural FIA Online Championship is getting towards its closing stages. This weekend the second of the three regional finals is about to get underway — with GTPlanet right there in Madrid to call the plays.

In previous Wants, we’ve covered some of the greats from Group B. These include the Peugeot 205 T16 and the Toyota 222D. Now joining that list is another legendary rally machine, the Porsche 959 Paris Dakar.

After a teaser at this year’s Geneva Motor Show, BMW has revealed the final form of its new X7 SUV.
