Final Gran Turismo World Series Nations Cup drivers confirmed

The preeminent competition for Gran Turismo 7 drivers now has a 2024-season line-up.

Returning to its former individual driver format – last year it was a team-based event – 12 of the quickest drivers from around the globe have made it through to the final reckoning.

After six online rounds that ran from April to May, now the finalists head to four in-person LAN events to determine the Nations Cup champion – effectively crowing the world’s best Gran Turismo driver.

Last year, Spain won the competition with the three drivers Jose Serrano, Coque López and Pol Urra. López won the last time it was a solo competition in 2022 also and lines up again to try and make it a trio of titles.

2021 Nations Cup winner Valerio Gallo from Italy has also qualified. The rest of the lineup, outside of joint-2023-champion Serrano, have not previously won titles.

They will now take part in four events, starting with Montreal in July, then on to Prague in August, Tokyo in September and a currently undisclosed finale. Points across all in-person rounds determine the overall winner.

The adjacent Manufactures Cup will run at those same events but retains the three-driver-per-car format.
