Since Gran Turismo 5 Prologue has been released in Europe, we’re finally beginning to get a trickle of information about the full Gran Turismo 5 as it lingers upon the horizon. One of the first tidbits to come down the pipeline is the confirmation of a new “city circuit” located in Madrid, Spain. While this is certainly very interesting, it does make you wonder why Polyphony would create a new circuit where one does not exist, while the infamous (and very popular) Circuit de Catalyuna is only a few hundred miles away. Obviously, some licensing issues (and costs) for the circuit must be factored in, but there is no question it would be a great selling point to an even wider range of racing enthusiasts.
