iRacing continues to add premier European road racing circuits to the iRacing online racing service. Today, the iRacing development team has now posted the first in-game screenshots of the upcoming Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours track.
No official release date is shared, but we do expect the track to become available alongside the new build.
“Its long history as a host of the French Grand Prix, plus its frequent use in various GT and junior formula championships, make it an important addition for those looking to get the most out of their time in open-wheel and sports cars on iRacing. We’re looking forward to Magny-Cours joining the iRacing track family later this year and can’t wait for our users to be able to experience it!
To celebrate its 60th anniversary, the Nevers Magny-Cours Track is happy and proud to provide access to its track thanks to iRacing, added Serge Saulnier, CEO of Nevers Magny-Cours Track. “Its highly diverse layout, appreciated by all drivers, will be an exceptional playing and training ground for all.
The Circuit de Nevers Magny-Cours is a 4.411 km (2.741 mi) motor racing circuit located in central France, near the towns of Magny-Cours and Nevers, some 250 km (160 mi) from Paris and 240 km (150 mi) from Lyon.
It staged the Formula One French Grand Prix from 1991 (succeeding Circuit Paul Ricard) to 2008, and the 24-hour Bol d’Or motorcycle endurance events from 2000 to 2014 (succeeded by Circuit Paul Ricard). It hosted the French motorcycle Grand Prix in 1992, the Superbike World Championship in 1991, and annually since 2003.
Magny-Cours has hosted several additional international championships, like the World Sportscar Championship, World Touring Car Championship, FIA GT Championship, World Series by Renault, and Formula 3 Euroseries. Also, the FFSA GT Championship has visited the circuit since 1997.
