We've had our eye on Project Motor Racing for quite some time now, so when a new trailer lands for one of our most anticipated racing games, we drop everything and pay attention. The subsequent array of broken glass on our kitchen floor can be tended to later - for now, let's enjoy some glowing brake discs…
The Gamescom 2025 trailer shows numerous racing classics from Porsche, Ford and others haring around some impressively detailed tracks.

There's news of some new categories joining the roster, too: 'Two of sports car racing's most storied eras - GT1 and Group C - are now also confirmed for Project Motor Racing, joining the already announced signature classes,' reads the announcement.
'Expect the raw, high-stakes theatre of '90s supercar exotica in GT1 alongside the golden age of prototype endurance racing in Group C. In total, nine racing classes, spanning half a century of motorsport, have now been revealed, with more still to come.'
Also to be filed under 'intriguing' until the game arrives on 25 November for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S is the mention of a 'survival' based career mode. We're letting ourselves get carried away, but if that means we finally get to enjoy a career mode in which there are consequences for poor results, we're in.
Project Motor Racing is the brainchild of several Slightly Mad Studios and SimBin alumni who have a long list of brilliant racing sims to their name. It's running on a bespoke game engine to ensure maximum realism, and promises full modding support. We can't wait.

Crystal Palace boss expects Eze and Guehi to start on Thursday night
Crystal Palace manager Oliver Glasner confirmed that Eberechi Eze and Marc Guehi will start Thursday night's Conference League play-off first leg against Fredrikstad. Despite persistent transfer speculation linking Eze to Tottenham and Guehi to Liverpool, Glasner stated both players are committed and expected to give 100 per cent while under contract. Glasner expressed surprise at the media's focus on their potential departures, highlighting their strong performance in the recent draw against Chelsea. Guehi's contract with Palace runs until next summer, while Eze's deal extends to 2027, with his reported £68million release clause having expired last Friday. Goalkeeper Dean Henderson echoed his manager's sentiments, praising Eze and Guehi's professionalism and dedication to the team.

‘They are turning him into a hero': Kneecap solidarity gig held in Dublin
Hundreds of people have attended a music session in Dublin city in solidarity with Kneecap rapper Liam Og O hAnnaidh after he appeared in court on Wednesday. Kneecap flags and logos hung from the windows in Connolly Books, which dubs itself Ireland's oldest radical bookshop, in solidarity with O hAnnaidh, Kneecap, and the people of Palestine. Pro-Palestine supporters criticised the decision by British authorities to bring a charge against the performer instead of focusing on the Israeli government's actions against the Palestinian people. O hAnnaidh, 27, who performs under the stage name Mo Chara, is accused of displaying a flag in support of Hezbollah at a gig in November last year. Hundreds of Kneecap supporters greeted O hAnnaidh as he arrived at Westminster Magistrates' Court in London on Wednesday morning, alongside fellow Kneecap rappers Naoise O Caireallain and JJ O Dochartaigh. During the hearing, his defence team argued the case should be thrown out, citing a technical error in the way the charge against him was brought. The case has been adjourned until September 26, when the judge will rule on whether he has the jurisdiction to try the case. At the protest session at Connolly Books on Wednesday afternoon, several artists played Irish traditional music in solidarity with the rappers and Palestine. Musician Ru O'Shea, who performed at the demonstration, said charging O hAnnaidh had turned him into 'a hero'. 'I think it's been a huge misstep by the powers that be to go after him in the first place,' he told the PA news agency. 'I reckon that they don't have a thing on him, and I think they are turning him into a hero, and I think we need a hero. 'What's happening in Palestine right now, it's gotten to such an extreme that it's waking a lot of people up, including the British who might not have ever seen it otherwise and stayed in that bubble forever.' O'Shea's friend John Feehan said: 'I think people are maybe starting to look up a little bit in Britain, and I think things like what's happening with Kneecap is a catalyst for people to be like 'Oh, wait a minute, what's actually happening here?'. So I hope there's momentum, but I really don't know.' Dubliner Aoife Powell, 19, said she came out to protest because she is 'angry' at the decision to charge an artist rather than focus on what is happening to the people of Gaza. 'I'm here because it just worries me that the fact that governments are focused on artists expressing themselves rather than the actual problem, which is obviously the genocide in Gaza,' she told PA. 'It's a little bit disheartening to see there's so much pressure being put on these artists to stop saying what they truly think and to stop standing on the right side of history. 'I feel like it's a distraction from what's actually happening. 'When a government tries to silence people, they should learn that they can never silence people. I feel like the public would get more angry at that.' Sean O'Grady is from Coleraine in Northern Ireland but has lived in Dublin for almost 70 years. 'I'm delighted with them (Kneecap), that they've done what they're doing, and they're getting plenty of publicity. 'The British government are crazy, I mean, what are they at? 'They're supplying a lot of the bombs, and a lot of the arms and ammunition to Israel to do what they're doing. So they should be ashamed of themselves instead of bringing in these people (to court) for stupid reasons. 'It's getting good publicity over there for the cause of the Palestinians.' Dubliner Dermot Nolan said he attended his first Palestine protest in 1967, and while he remembers horrific events such as the Vietnam War, the scale of death and injuries in Gaza is the worst he has ever lived through. 'I'm here because it's important to for two reasons – first of all, to show our intolerance of the genocide and slaughter that's being carried out by the US, Nato and Israel. 'The second reason is the question of civil rights. We're protesting about the indictment of a member of the Irish group Kneecap. 'It is a sign of creeping authoritarianism which is happening in all the western countries and most clearly in Britain.'

Transfer news LIVE: Spurs ‘consider SHOCK new Eze offer', Liverpool to make British record bid for Isak, Wissa latest
Isak drama In case you missed it, Alexander Isak FINALLY broke his silence on his refusal to play for Newcastle. And the Swedish striker claimed the club have broken promises made to him about a potential move away from St James' Park. He said: ""I've kept quiet for a long time while others have spoken. "That silence has allowed people to push their own version of events, even though they know it doesn't reflect what was really said and agreed behind closed doors. "The reality is that promises were made and the club has known my position for a long time. To now act as if these issues are only emerging is misleading. "When promises are broken and trust is lost, the relationship can't continue. "That's where things are for me right now – and why change is in the best interests of everyone, not just myself."
