BeamNG has new rally content, Gran Turismo 7 a van and F1 25 has finally been unveiled - plus, your F1 25 opinions discussed.

Here, we discuss what we think Gran Turismo 7 should do for its next update, if BeamNG.drive will ever be finished (nope) and what we made of the initial F1 25 news, followed by the community's opinion too. Safe to say, it's been mixed...

We'll be back once a month with a new episode.

Jaroslav Honzik, aka Jardier, entered some races in the Czech Republic 18 years ago. But, his motorsport dream ended there, until earlier this year, when he put his (and sponsor's) money where his mouth is and went for his dream - a season of touring car racing.

Competing the Clio Cup, Jardier still adores Assetto Corsa, in particular Assetto Corsa Competizione. Naturally, we also discuss what the future may hold for ACC, but also hopes and dreams for Assetto Corsa EVO.

All this, and more, in the latest episode of the Traxion Podcast, plus we answer your questions.

Misha Charoudin has made a name for himself as the King of the Nurburgring-Nordschleife.

Through his entertaining YouTube videos, where Charoudin drives a range of cars supplied by fans and manufacturers, the affable Russian has built up a legion of followers enthralled by his skill behind the wheel.

He has also been a prolific racer in the last few years, currently participating in the Nurburgring Langstrecken-Serie in the SP8T class alongside Jimmy Broadbent, Steve Alvarez Brown (YouTube's SuperGT) and Manuel Metzger.

In this edition of the Traxion podcast, we discover that Charoudin has a lot more going on than just his Nordschleife escapades. He talks about his various business ventures, his experiences in sim racing and his time working with Kunos Simulazioni, developers of the hotly-anticipated Assetto Corsa EVO.

We sat down for a chat about modding, driving on public roads, and online multiplayer with Kunos Simulazioni co-founder and executive manager Marco Massarutto.

Assetto Corsa EVO has made its public hands-on debut at the ADAC SimRacing Expo. The early demo sees you driving three different cars around three different tracks.

But, EVO is much more than that.

Listen, as Massarutto explains on-road driving, modding and reaching a larger gaming audience, without upsetting the hardcore sim racing fans.
