About the World Series
Automotive racing traces its origins back to 1894 in Paris, France. Aiming to carry that legacy into the next century, the Gran Turismo World Series was established in 2018 as the “motorsport of the future”—an official championship created to discover the world’s greatest Gran Turismo driver.
The 2025 World Series will unfold across four spectacular Live Events, where top competitors from the Online Qualifiers, along with seeded drivers, will battle for the coveted championship title. This year’s series will visit three of the world’s most iconic cities—beginning in London, England, this June, continuing to Berlin, Germany, in September, and then Los Angeles, United States, in November—before culminating in the prestigious World Finals in Fukuoka, Japan, where the 2025 champions will be crowned.

This championship brings together the top-ranked manufacturers from the Online Qualifiers, joined by Official Partners Toyota and Mazda, for a total of 12 competing teams. Each manufacturer will be represented by a trio of drivers—one from each of the Europe/Middle East/Africa, Americas, and Asia-Oceania Regions. They are selected based on their performance in the Online Qualifiers. At Round 1 – London, the spotlight will be on the 12 drivers representing the Asia-Oceania Region as they take to the track in the first event of the season.
In this championship, drivers compete as proud representatives of their home country or territory. A field of 12 elite competitors will battle for the title in four thrilling Live Events. Three of these spots are reserved for seeded drivers—the top three finishers from the 2024 Nations Cup—while the remaining places are filled by the highest-ranking drivers from each region in the Online Qualifiers.
At the Live Events, presenters Jules Hardy, Tom Brooks, and Jimmy Broadbent will be on hand to guide you through every thrilling moment, bringing their energy and insight as the excitement and intensity of the races electrify the arena.
Limited-edition official merchandise will be available for purchase on-site, offering fans a chance to take home a piece of the action. We hope you’ll join us in person to experience some of the finest racing the world has to offer—up close and in person.
