It was a busy time for racing last weekend, with the second round of Formula One as well as the kick-off of the 2017 Super GT season. Not to be outdone, the IMSA Weathertech SportsCar Championship had arguably the most dramatic race of the weekend.

Looking forward to the driving in DiRT 4 but still want further details on the features the game will have when it launches in June? PlayStation Access got the chance to go hands-on with the title last week, and has released another video detailing the top eight reasons it believes DiRT 4 provides a full experience outside of the actual racing.

Lewis Hamilton controlled from the front as he took the checkered flag at the 2017 Formula 1 Heineken Chinese Grand Prix on an afternoon of mixed conditions and mixed fortunes. Hamilton and his Mercedes team are back to winning ways after converting yesterday’s pole position into a convincing win to set up what looks to be a titanic battle between themselves and Ferrari for the 2017 titles.

I say this all too often but what a week this has been. After months of speculation and rumors thanks to no small part of Microsoft keeping their lips sealed on the matter, the hardware that will be powering the next Xbox, otherwise currently known as Project Scorpio, has finally been discussed at-length and I have to say that it is truly an impressive feat.

Fans tuning into the qualifying for the second round of the 2017 Formula One season may have had a sense of deja vu earlier today, as a familiar pecking order began to shake out at China’s Shanghai International Circuit.

Spring has truly sprung in the world of motorsports this weekend. This weekend is a busy one across the globe, and if the third round qualifying of the IMSA WeatherTech SCC is any indication, it’s going to be a weekend full of close racing.

Even though spring in the land down under technically takes place during the months of September, October, and November, it’s springtime in the digital world of Forza Horizon 3. And with that, comes the newest assortment of Forzathon challenges all bundled under the title of “Spring Is In The Air.”

As we head into the weekend, we’re also about to start the fourth week of the closed beta for Gran Turismo Sport. Originally limited to US players only (before quietly expanding to Canada and Latin America), it looks like other regions will soon get a chance to take Polyphony Digital’s racer out for a spin.

We’re quickly approaching DiRT 4’s mid-June release date, and that means a continuous stream of info on Codemasters’ rally title. The latest video, coming to us care of PlayStation Access, shows off three of the disciplines players will get down and dirty with.

Project Scorpio has been the topic of several discussions lately, and following the impressive technical overview courtesy of Digital Foundry those discussions are likely to continue and will lead into this year’s E3 where the next Xbox will hopefully be fully unveiled — name and all.

Slightly Mad Studios continues to expand the count of cars scheduled to appear in the upcoming Project CARS 2. This time it’s all about the traction, as four Lancer Evolution iterations grab the spotlight.

Microsoft has finally lifted the lid on its latest Xbox One model, with Project Scorpio having all sorts of technical specs being revealed to the public eye. Whilst it doesn’t have an official name, price or aesthetic look, the type of power the console will be capable of in relation to its fellow hardware seem nothing short of staggering.

Earlier this week, Eurogamer laid rumors to rest and confirmed Digital Foundry would have an exclusive first look at Microsoft’s latest console evolution. This unorthodox approach has revealed a remarkably in-depth look at the most powerful console ever.

Polyphony have pulled the trigger on the latest Seasonal Events for Gran Turismo 6. This week’s events take you to three well-paced technical circuits where attack speeds are the key to victory. Three challenge levels cover this week’s events, giving you a choice of capable sporting metal.

Gran Turismo Sport is set to launch later this year with a variety of classes roughly based on real-world motorsports. It looks like another class might be destined for Polyphony Digital’s upcoming racer, one where how you get around the lap is more important than how fast.

It’s that time of the year again, when Sony announces its annual Easter sale on the PlayStation store, and there are some great deals to be had for all you racing fanatics out there.

If there’s one thing Codemasters does right in many of its racing games, it must be the audio. The developer’s latest release, DiRT Rally, has received plenty of praise from reviewers for its quite accurate representation of vehicle sounds. The recreation of these beautiful sounds is not an easy task, though.
