@MonkeyMatt_ The prize wasn't anything fantastic but did pull most of the big names A PlayStation Portal Remote Player ($199.99 USD) A PlayStation DualSense Edge Wireless Controller ($199.99 USD) A $100 USD PlayStation Store gift card One year of PlayStation Plus Premium ($159.99 USD)

@meta7gear I was focused on the top prize spots as the best in the region are motivated to turn up (and regional prizes mean even slow regions get stuck in) unlike something like daily C which the top drivers don't usually run so it ends up giving you different information

Started looking into an idea, Which region is the most competitive in sim racing? I assumed Europe but maybe that's not always true. Now I'm on the hunt for more data buttondown.com/Hectic/archive…

@MonkeyMatt_ From that recent time trial, here's a truncated list of country breakdown of top 250, with final column being how much the country over performed its expected output based on population size.

@MonkeyMatt_ 4,679 drivers for the rally event is pretty inconsequential and I would guess the Forza competition would have had similarly low numbers. By contrast, last weeks Daily C in Gran Turismo had over 70,000 and a recent prized time trial had 207k

"LP11" 🥸

PD... never change

Somebody pinch me. It’s just wild to see the MSM finally admitting that the US-funded biolabs in Ukraine were real this whole time. I’ve dedicated the last 4+ years of my life to exposing this story, and it’s finally coming to fruition.

Great to see Lewis get the win but people seem to forget that Hamilton had some genuinely impressive races in 2024, winning twice and being competitive in others.

Imagine being CEO of Brembo right now

F1 had something special with the 2026 regs. It's a shame they gave in to the naysayers

Spurs season ending with a bricked three is thematic

@Rataka_7 @Levitius_GT @thegranturismo This is a sensible take actually

@Levitius_GT @thegranturismo Gr4 needs to be binned off replace gr4 dailys with gr1 hypercars dailys

@thegranturismo You just released 4 of the most anticipated cars in GT history and you won't give us a Daily C at Le Mans with them? I hope this doesn't happen. #GT7

@Jamesallenonf1 @PierreGASLY From memory the Fisi one was just some luck of being leader at the right specific moment, I don't remember him having been in any actual real contention before the Red Flag?

Feel sorry for @PierreGASLY. He gets a trophy and the points for P3 in #MonacoGP, but not the podium moment. This happened once for a race win. In 2003 Giancarlo Fisichella should have won Brazil for Jordan, but the timing switched back to the wrong lap when the race was red flagged and Kimi Raikkonen got the trophy and the moment. F1 tried to put it right with a handover at the next race. I was there commentating that race for ITV and remember seeing the timing screens change. #F1

@Team_Dombek @kieran_30 It has a massive player base with no realistic competition on console. Succeeding in spite of themselves tbh

@kieran_30 @meta7gear I'm not entirely sure. GT7 is already 4.5 years old and it's still probably the most played racing game out there. They must be doing something damn right, which is why I find it very questionable to accuse them of stupidity

GT7 Adds Hyper cars and the next weeks dailies are this, surely with Le Mans it should been the hyper cars at Le Mans 😆 management like this is one the reasons I stopped GT, honestly beyond stupid.

@Keev26 I would trade everyone on this team for one more game with Timmy, Tony, Manu and Kawhi

Male friendships are truly beautiful: So many people I haven't spoken to in a decade reaching out this morning to talk trash to the only Spurs fan they know.

@kieran_30 @Team_Dombek Yep, it's so daft isn't it

@meta7gear @Team_Dombek So the nations race has no relevance to hypers 😆 ffs, I really hope LMU delivers a good version on console because people will see why I’ve stopped GT.

@kieran_30 @Team_Dombek No Kie, you dummy, it's not open to all GR 1 cars.. It's open to ONLY group C cars 😂 Yeh, PD are 100% cooked. Can't wait to join you on LMU some day

That’s why you should have more than 3 races a week but I won’t go into that, also guessing the Nations race is open to all GR.1 cars? So won’t be hyper only which kinda ruins that race, but anyway I just find it funny from PD, in my view it’s bad management sport mode, but honestly it’s just bit fun because I don’t play GT anymore 👍

@conte_sky It's still early, monkey see monkey do.

This is NOT a good sign is it

At least the 2013 team no longer the biggest choke in Spurs history
