Circuit de la Sarthe

After weeks of teasers, leaks, and speculation, the highly anticipated “May” update for Gran Turismo Sport is finally here. It brings with it one of the world’s most popular circuits, nine new cars, new GT League events, and a flurry of other adjustments and bug-fixes.

When it comes to the world’s most iconic tracks, there’s not much that gets close to the Circuit de la Sarthe.

Following an impressive showing in the Asian Le Mans Series, GT Academy finalist Edgar Lau is due to race at Le Mans next weekend.

It’s time for one of the biggest races in the 2015 GTPlanet Endurance Series’ calendar: the 24 Hours of Le Mans! The race kicks off today (June 27) at 13:00 GMT/UTC (click here to convert this to your local time), and will be live-streamed right here via GTPlanet’s YouTube channel.

This is it! There’s just a few days left in the final round of GT Academy 2015, and it’s proving to be one of the most challenging in the program’s history, as players wrangle the Nissan GT-R LM around a Circuit de la Sarthe invaded by cones.

Thanks to Planete-GT, who already have their hands on a copy of the game!
