About the World Series

The history of automotive racing began in 1894 in Paris, France. Looking to sustain it for another 100 years, the Gran Turismo World Series began in 2018 as the 'motorsport of the future,' an official tournament to find the world’s best Gran Turismo driver.

The 2025 World Series is planned to be held across four Live Events where the best drivers selected from the Online Qualifiers along with seeded drivers will compete for the championship title. The Series visits three of the world’s most famous cities - starting with London, England in June, going on to Berlin, Germany in September, and Los Angeles, United States in November - before reaching the grand finale, the 'World Finals' in Fukuoka, Japan where the 2025 champions will be decided.

This championship consists of the top ranked manufacturers from the Online Qualifiers along with Official Partners Toyota and Mazda, for a total of 12 teams. A team of three representative drivers will be selected for each manufacturer made up of the top driver from each of the Europe/Middle East/Africa, Americas, and Asia-Oceania Regions in the Online Qualifiers. Round 1 – London will feature the 12 drivers from the Asia-Oceania Region.

In this championship, drivers race as representatives of their home country/territory. A lineup of 12 elite drivers will fight for the title across the four live events. Three 'seeded drivers,' the top three from the 2024 Nations Cup, will be joined by the top-ranking drivers from each Region in the Online Qualifiers.

At the Live Events, our presenters Jules Hardy, Tom Brooks, and Jimmy Broadbent will be right there with you as the excitement and tension of the race takes over the arena.

Limited-edition official merchandise will also be available for purchase on-site. We hope you’ll join us live in person to experience some of the best racing the world has to offer.
