GRID Autosport Discipline Focus – Endurance

GRID Autosport will feature a five Autosport disciplines ranging from Drifting and street races to your genuine circuit races. in a previous Disipline Focus gameplay video, we could already have a look at the Touring car part of GRID Autosport. In this new episode of GRID Autosport – Discipline Focus we can have a look at the GRID Autosport Endurance side of racing. The video also features a few interviews with a selection of professional endurance drivers.

The GRID Autosport Endurance races will support up to 16 cars offline and 12 cars online. Endurance means the races will be lengthy day/night races that can last up to 40 minutes. In the Endurance discipline you will have to take care of your tire wear, making them last the whole race. If you don’t manage your tires it will lead to decreased performance and handling. Endurance races can become quite challenging because its not always easy to stay concentrated for a longer period of time.
