3. Three new layouts added for the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya.

Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya GP Layout No Chicane

Total Length, 4,730m. Elevation Change, 30m. Number of corners, 14. Longest Straight, 1,047m

This new layout for the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya removes a chicane going into the final corner, transforming this once low-speed section into a high-speed right turn. Through this pass, a car’s aerodynamics are put to the test. With the addition of the “No Chicane” layout, we have renamed the existing Catalunya track to “Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya GP Layout.”

Circuit de Barcelona ‒ Catalunya is a track located approximately 30km north of Barcelona, Spain. It has been the stage for many epic F1 and MotoGP races since opening in September 1991.

Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya National Layout

Total Length, 2,977m. Elevation Change, 28m. Number of corners, 11. Longest Straight, 862m.

This is a new layout added to the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya. The front straight from the GP layout now runs into a hairpin corner, resulting in a more compact track that completely cuts through Sector 1 and half of Sector 2. The long back straight and technical Sector 3 have been preserved, providing a very satisfying racing experience.

Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya Rallycross Layout

Total Length, 1,133m. Elevation Change, 11m. Number of corners, 11. Longest Straight, 148m.

This new layout for the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya is for rallycross races. It uses the GP layoutʼs Sector 3 and infield areas, making it a unique hybrid track composed of paved and unpaved surfaces. The jump in the middle of the track is a sight to behold.

4. Two New Extra Menus for “Abarth” and “Gr.2 Racing Car” in the Café.

The following two extra menus have been added. Further Menu Books are planned to be added with future updates.

　・”Collection: Abarth” opens at Collector Level 27.
