Whilst Polyphony Digital had previously confirmed a few weeks back that there would be a renewal of the FIA-certified series, we’ve now finally received confirmation of when the races will resume.
Following the same pattern as previous seasons of the championship, there will be an exhibition series starting on 27th February. This will likely run through the end of February and March before the season starts in earnest in April or May. Presumably, both the Manufacturer and Nations Cup will return – we haven’t got the full schedule just yet.
It’s also not known whether Polyphony will aim to bring back the big “in-person” events seen in 2019 and for one event in Australia last year before the COVID-19 pandemic hit. It’s likely though, at least to begin with, that racing will be held online for the foreseeable feature.
“We are pleased to announce that the ‘FIA Gran Turismo Championships’ 2021 Exhibition Series will be held from Saturday, 27 February.”
