The FIA’s relationship with Gran Turismo is far from being over despite recent speculation about the future of their partnership. GranTurismo7 Full Story: ⬇️
Motor racing’s governing body had previously been officially tied to the exclusive PlayStation gaming series, with there being an FIA-certified Gran Turismo World Series from 2018 to 2021.
The FIA name quietly disappeared from the current championship, and it is not a part of the latest World Series event that is taking place at Red Bull’s Hangar 7 in Austria this weekend. The game’s launch has been far from trouble free, with it being beset early on by a host of glitches and problems with the online experience in lobbies.
“But we still work with Gran Turismo on plenty of other projects. So no, it's not an end. It's just an acceptance of non exclusive approach, and we feel that Esports needs to be more open. “I will send my guys and if we feel it's ready, we'll move on again,” he said “And then we will probably have another project early first quarter of next year with Gran Turismo.”
“We have decided to go on a selected number of events where we will put the FIA logo, and if we can [have arrangements] like we did last year with the Olympic Virtual series, we will see how to work with them further on that concept.
