Let’s take a closer look at all 13.6 kilometers of this track! So whilst you will find this track already looks gorgeous, it is safe to say we will do an update once everything is finalized later in the year, and we will provide a more in-depth update on this process in one of our upcoming roadmaps.Įnough said about production and background. Improvements to our lighting model and materials are still in full swing. Graphically, we have used our latest shaders on this track. By pairing our highly accurate physics with a very detailed road mesh, we have recreated the track in a way that makes you feel every bump and curb out there. With the license in place and the scan in our possession, production work started a little over half a year ago, with us balancing our track team resources at the time between three big tracks, the Nürburgring, already in production at that time after we announced it at SimRacing Expo last year, Monaco and Le Mans.Īs with Sebring, our goal was to create the most realistic model of Le Mans possible for any consumer-oriented racing simulation available. Just in time too for doing a laser scan of the 2018 track, as obviously Le Mans only exists in this configuration for a couple of weeks a year. All these things led to a licensing agreement, roughly a year ago, that all parties were happy with. In that same time period, we also entered into discussions with various other tracks and car manufacturers and showed that we were serious about making rFactor 2 the most realistic racing simulation for everybody who enjoys the experience of driving race cars. Over the first two years, we met regularly, explained our ideas and plans, and listened to their feedback. I guess when we chose the name of our company we already showed our intention.īeing new to the game obviously meant that we had to first introduce ourselves to the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO) and build a relationship with them. The story of the creation of this iconic track goes all the way back to the days when Studio 397 was founded, almost three years ago now. (V1.1112) You can check out the changelog below. The release of this new track requires you to update your rFactor installation to the latest build. The Le Mans 24h track is now available via the Steam rFactor 2 store for 10,99€. Le Mans challenges drivers like no other, with 24 hours of hard racing throughout the night and often with difficult weather conditions.

With the nature of the track also comes a unique race. The 24h Le Mans circuit is over 13.6 km and unique in nature with long sweeping corners and high-speed straights. The rFactor 2 version of this amazing endurance circuit is officially licensed by the Automobile Club de l’Ouest (ACO). Smack on the finish of the 87th edition of the world most famous 24h race, Studio 397 released the Circuit de la Sarthe (Le Mans) track for their rFactor 2 racing simulator. We knew it was coming, but we did not expect the timing to be so perfect.
