Gran Turismo 7: Will no longer play a role in FIA competitions

Gran Turismo 7 (from 42.90 at buy) and Gran Turismo Sport will no longer play a role in official FIA competitions. Again international motor sport federation announced, GT7 will not be part of the Motorsport Games 2022.

Assetto Corsa Competizione moves into the front row

Instead of in Gran Turismo 7, the eSport racers will now climb into the virtual cockpits of the GT3 vehicles from Assetto Corsa Competizione. This step makes perfect sense, at least for the organizers: While Gran Turismo 7 focuses much more on the broad representation of car culture, Assetto Corsa Competizione is the official simulation of the GT racing series.

This means that you are much more geared towards eSport formats and also have all the necessary ranking systems and a complex simulation of the GT3 field. In the 2022 format, a field of 80 riders will face a knockout system that will reduce the number of entries to 20 for the final. The final will take place on October 29, 2022.

Even without FIA eSports in Gran Turismo

However, the FIA ​​is not a requirement for eSports in Gran Turismo. The World Series has already started and follow-up sponsors have also found each other.
