Formula Legends adds three new circuits in Historic Track Pack | Traxion.GG

Indie racer Formula Legends has added a trio of new circuits as part of the Historic Track Pack DLC. The three circuits included in the pack are fictional, but inspired by real-world locations from different eras of motorsport. Playable in classic and modern variations, San Marino Motorsports Park appears to be inspired by Imola, while Dutch Dunes Circuit seems to be based on Zandvoort with its surrounding sand dunes. Meanwhile, Hatchwood Circuit looks like a fictional version of Brands Hatch, replicating the high-elevation Paddock Hill Bend. Priced at £4.99 / $4.99, the Historic Track Pack DLC is available from today, 25th June, on PC, PS5, Xbox and Nintendo Switch. Alongside the DLC, a new Modern Hatchwood layout is available for free for all players. Discussion 0 Comments Join the discussion Join Traxion.gg to start discussing with members. Already a member?

Mumbai Falcons to hold <b>sim racing</b> competition to unearth next Indian F1 talent

Even as there is a growing chatter around Formula One’s potential return to India in the near future, the country’s representation in the sport has been sparse. So far, there have been only two drivers who have managed to reach the glamorous world of F1, and there hasn’t been one on the grid since 2012. Now, in a bid to identify potential future racing drivers, the Mumbai Falcons Racing Team is seeking to create a pathway to unearth talent, albeit in an unconventional way. One of the biggest problems is that the sport is the preserve of the rich, and the cost of trying to forge a career, even at the lowest levels, is prohibitive. To address that, Mumbai Falcons - which competes in various championships in the UAE and the Middle East and has run current F1 drivers like Andrea Kimi Antonelli and Arvid Linblad - will host a nationwide Sim Racing championship in association with F1 to help some of the top performers transition to real-world racing. “The idea is basically to find the next F1 driver. That’s the ultimate goal. But when we got into the psyche kids, we found out it’s too expensive and dangerous. That’s when we thought of doing this: virtual-to-reality? And then, you never know, you can just find one star out of them and who can start coming to our academy in Dubai and move up the rungs from karting to F4, F3 and so on,” said Ameet Gadhoke, owner of Mumbai Falcons. Participants will race from home on their console of preference at the first stage of screening. The second stage will be held in 10 cities as a zonal event, with an expected participation of nearly 10,000 across two sections: juniors (under-14) and seniors (over 14), all using the same

Where to find bamboo in Forza Horizon 6

Where to find bamboo in Forza Horizon 6 Break these green shoots for the Bamboo Bash challenge. The new Bamboo Bash challenge in Forza Horizon 6's Autumn season of Series 2 sounds easy enough on paper. Find and crash into 30 bamboo. How hard can that be? Japan's bamboo forests are iconic. But now you need to specifically hunt it down, you're likely scratching your head, wondering where you've whizzed past it while driving at 100 mph. Don't worry though, I've found the best bamboo location so you can complete this challenge in a matter of seconds. It's just a shame there's no unique car up for grabs like its Series 1 counterpart. Forza Horizon 6 bamboo locations The best location to visit is the bamboo forest by the Arashiyama Run speed zone on the border between Minamino and Ito. Other nearby landmarks include Shirakawa-Go in the former region and Kitayama Big Daisugi located in the latter. Here you'll find hundreds of bamboo shoots bordering the road, and all you need to do is ram into 30 of them to complete the Festival Playlist challenge. It's also a very lucrative location to rack up a high skill score from all the chaos you're causing, including the Bamboom! Skill. Another location you could visit is right outside the Porsche 911 Turbo 3.3 Barn Find in the south of Ohtani, very close to Mei's house and Tokyo City. There's not as much bamboo here but it's very convenient. As mentioned, there's unfortunately no new car for completing Bamboo Bash like there was for last Series' Snack Attack collectible challenge. Instead, you'll earn a Super Wheelspin. I hope you've got good luck then, otherwise this reward is rather terrible—I keep getting the lowest amount of cash possible. Forza Horizon 6 car list: All

How to stream the 2026 Austrian Grand Prix on F1 TV Premium

F1 returns this weekend for the Austrian Grand Prix, held at the picturesque Red Bull Ring tucked into the Styrian hills. Here’s all the details you need to follow the action live on F1 TV. The short circuit, which is known for its punishing elevation changes and fast lap times, hosts the eighth round of 2026. Attention will switch to Lewis Hamilton, who will be hoping to kickstart a title challenge by following up his spectacular maiden Grand Prix win with Ferrari last time out. The seven-time World Champion has rediscovered his groove at the Italian team, but Mercedes will be determined to fight back against reliability woes and an unfolding intra-team battle between Kimi Antonelli and George Russell to get back on top. As usual, we will bring you coverage of all the action from the Austrian Grand Prix across our various platforms. You can enjoy coverage from every session live on F1 TV Pro, which brings fans closer to the action via exclusive features like onboard cameras on all 22 of the drivers’ cars, and access to both Pre-Race and Post-Race Shows. F1 TV Pro can be streamed easily via Apple TV, Chromecast Generation 2 and above, Android TV, Google TV, Amazon Fire TV, and Roku. In the US, F1 TV is changing. Apple – Formula 1’s new Official U.S. Broadcaster – will host F1 TV included for free within its Apple TV subscription, streamlining access for fans and enhancing the overall fan experience. The F1 TV broadcast team will also primarily front Apple TV’s English-language coverage, bringing their established expertise and insight to a wider US audience.

GTA 6 reveals its ultimate edition content and vintage Vice City-themed preorder bonuses

GTA 6 reveals its ultimate edition content and vintage Vice City-themed preorder bonuses Rockstar’s take on the Testarossa features, among other eye-catching cars You’ll never guess what – there’s been some actual GTA 6 news. Not the kind of convoluted nonsense you keep seeing on your news feed, but significant new info from developer Rockstar detailing all the preorder bonus items in its Vintage Vice City pack, and in the Ultimate Edition. Let’s start with the latter. Preorders don’t go live until midnight on 25 June and prices haven’t been revealed yet, but what’s clear is that the Ultimate Edition has some pretty chunky additions. Or, as Rockstar puts it, “an exclusive collection of premium vehicles, weapons, apparel, and action around every corner". The really interesting bit is how this bonus content is distributed throughout the game. Generally items are present in your inventory from the start in most games, but here “new items [are] uncovered behind each chapter”, apparently. Onto the content. The headline act is a ’95 Grotti Cheetah, the GTA equivalent of a Ferrari Testarossa. There’s also a set of his ‘n’ hers Morgan revolvers from Hawk & Little with exclusive customisation elements like engravings. There are exclusive outfits and tattoos for dual protagonists Lucia and Jason, and two safehouse vehicles for Jason: the Dinka Enduro motorcycle and Crest kayak. His Vapid Ganado, meanwhile, gets an exclusive retro mod kit. A custom tuner shop, Rideout Customs, will also be available only via the Ultimate Edition, as is One-Eyed Willies, another customs shop that specialises in elaborate custom paintwork. We hope that doesn’t mean there won’t be any vehicle tuning shops available to standard edition owners. It sounds like there’s also something akin to Forza Horizon’s barn finds: “Track down a variety of abandoned classic and work-in-progress project

Rennsport's Touring Classics Part 1 DLC adds four DTM cars tomorrow | Traxion.GG

Rennsport’s second paid DLC of 2026 is set to arrive tomorrow, 25th June, with the long-delayed release of Touring Classics Part 1. Included in the Deluxe Edition or available to purchase separately, the racing simulation’s latest DLC pack contains four historic DTM cars. These include the Alfa Romeo 155 V6 TI and Mercedes-Benz C-Class V6, which competed in the championship between 1993 and 1995. They are joined by the BMW M3 E30 and Mercedes-AMG 190 E Evo II. These DTM classics can be raced around the Hockenheimring Classic layout, a new track included in the DLC. Alongside the DLC, the latest update adds two free cars to the roster: the HWA EVO.R teased last month and the Porsche 718 Cayman GT4 RS Clubsport. Also included is a free community circuit in the form of Thermalito, a mod originally created by DDF Racer and converted to Rennsport by Nukedrop. Beyond new cars and tracks, the latest update brings a host of stability and AI improvements, reducing their chances of collisions and enhancing their “cornering logic,” among other changes. From tomorrow, the Standard Edition will also receive a 50% discount, reduced to €24,99 on PC and €29.99 on consoles. At the same time, discounts for the Deluxe Edition will be temporarily removed, with a new version featuring extra content expected to go on sale at a reduced price between late July and late August.

Forza Horizon 6 too arcadey? Steam's most popular <b>racing sim</b> is on sale for $5 until tomorrow

Deal | Forza Horizon 6 too arcadey? Steam's most popular racing sim is on sale for $5 until tomorrow If the arcade-heavy driving feel in Forza Horizon 6 is starting to wear thin, Steam currently has an interesting alternative: Assetto Corsa is once again available with a 75% discount, dropping the price to around $5 instead of $20. According to SteamDB, the racing sim regularly attracts more than 10,000 concurrent players, making it the most popular racing simulation on Steam ahead of titles such as Automobilista 2 and rFactor 2. Anyone looking for a more authentic driving experience with realistic vehicle physics, laser-scanned tracks and extensive modding support should find plenty to like here. The offer is only available until tomorrow, June 25, at 7 p.m CEST / 10 a.m. PDT. Unlike Forza Horizon 6, Assetto Corsa aims to be as realistic as possible. Vehicles react noticeably to weight, tire pressure, road surface and load transfer. Brake too late, accelerate too early or take the wrong line through a corner, and you will quickly lose valuable seconds – or end up in the gravel trap. The vehicle roster includes more than 170 licensed cars across multiple classes, from road cars and GT racers to Formula cars and historic classics. Races take place on numerous officially licensed tracks, including Monza, Imola and the Nürburgring. Thanks to a very active modding community, many additional cars and tracks have been added over the years. The Steam reviews speak for themselves: Assetto Corsa has more than 170,000 reviews with a very positive average rating of 92%. Players should not expect an elaborate campaign, but many fans still regard it as a thoroughly successful racing simulation. Alongside the excellent driving feel, the realistic force-feedback effects are frequently praised. To make full use of that added

Multiplayer confirmed for Assetto Corsa Rally's in next update

This is alongside further tyre model tweaks, with a change in peak slip angle, contact patch calculation and ‘refactored’ surface recognition. Camber dynamics are now claimed to “scale grip based on load and angle sensitivity,” too. Two new stages Following the unveiling of Elatia earlier this week for the new Greece location, a laser-scanned Loutraki will join the roster. In total, the two full stages will be available in 12 layouts. Several other changes and fixes will be part of the update, with the full changelog below. A release date is not yet confirmed. “In the medium term, we will soon be able to reintroduce tyre and brake thermal dynamics, tyre wear, and more advanced suspension setups for rough surfaces,” said a spokesperson for developer Supernova. “In the long term, thanks in part to a renewed collaboration with MegaRide, a highly specialised Italian company focused on advanced vehicle dynamics, tyre simulation software, and tyre testing, we will be able to further develop the tyre model and vehicle dynamics.” Assetto Corsa Rally version 0.5 patch notes New Content – New Location: Rally Greece Features 2 brand-new, unique Special Stages with 12 total layout variants. Includes 22 km of high-fidelity, laser-scanned roads spanning 509 meters of elevation change. – Added dedicated “Rally Weekend” presets tailored specifically for Greece. – New Multiplayer Online Mode featuring both official and user-generated custom lobbies. – Core Physics Overhaul: Deployed a major physics update for all vehicles and terrains, highlighted by the introduction of the gravel bulldozing effect. – Assetto Corsa Rally Events: Added 2 new event groups featuring 24 fresh events to explore the new locations. Added 8 new snow-condition events for the Alsace and Wales regions. – New official partners added to the drivers’ profile sections. Cars – Cockpit Dynamics: Added realistic vibrations to interior

Moza's flashy steering wheel is a Porsche fan's dream

My latest sim racing obsession is the Moza Porsche Mission R Steering Wheel, an officially licensed replica based on the CAD data of the real-life Porsche Mission R electric supercar wheel. The 320mm wheel comes with a machined aluminium frame, making it strong and rigid, while the suede-like grips feel great in-hand. With a modest 12 controls, this Moza wheel has that sleek, premium feel while sticking true to the real-life version. Around the back, you have aluminium alloy paddles for shifting gears and releasing the clutch with precision. The big hitter has to be the oversized 5.4-inch flexible OLED display made from tempered glass. This thing is a beauty. Naturally, I spun the wheel playing Forza Horizon 6 and driving the Porsche Mission R to match. Some things are just meant to be. At a rather lofty $2,299, this wheel is for those with deep pockets, compared to some of Moza’s more affordable wheels. But it’s great for diehard Porsche fans.
