After a pretty average showing at Monte Carlo, I was looking forward to the next challenge in the WRC Esports Championship.

Sir Elton John is many things. Subtle isn’t one of them though. From outlandish outfits to rhinestone-studded glasses, he’s always out to make a statement. That’s why when we saw his 1997 Aston Martin Vantage come up for auction, it didn’t surprise us one bit that he’d own one of the least subtle Aston Martin cars of all time.

News of an Ultimate Edition isn’t the only Assetto Corsa development today. Kunos Simulazioni is teasing “something big”, and it lands on the official website in seven days.
