Rouen les Essarts
Rouen les Essarts was a legendary motor racing venue near the French city of Rouen that was a fixture on international racing calendars from the 50s to the 70s.
Using public roads, the circuit was considered to be one of Europe’s finest and most spectacular racing venues back in the day, its 6.5 kilometre layout included challenges like a cobblestone hairpin and several blazingly-fast blind corners with little to no run-off areas, punishing driver mistakes instantly.
While racing at Rouen was unfortunately stopped a long time ago in real life, Project CARS lets everyone to test their courage by racing on what is one of the most thrilling venues racing has ever produced.
Hockenheim Classic
While the German Hockenheimring is still a popular venue for touring cars, formula machinery, and more to this very day, the classic Hockenheimring was a vastly different beast to the modern Grand Prix venue.
The track’s classic layout combined a twisty stadium section called the “Motodrom” with long straights cutting through the German forest. The classic Hockenheim track had a reputation for creating some of the most thrilling slipsteam battles ever seen in racing.
The combination of two very different track characteristics asks racers to make a major decision: will you go for maximum top speed or sacrifice some of it for more grip in the twisty bits? The right answer to this question is the key to a successful race at the classic Hockenheim track.
Silverstone Classic
Vastly different to today’s super-modern Grand Prix venue, the classic version of Silverstone takes Project CARS racers back to the days when the British Formula One venue still had much more of its original airfield-track character.
Back in the day, Silverstone was a blazingly-fast high-speed track, challenging racers with a very fast 4.7 kilometre lap with legendary corners such as Becketts, Abbey, Woodcote and Copse – names that have become synonymous with great racing in the UK and beyond.
Your Project CARS career also gets extended with two exciting invitational events – the Lotus Vintage GT Challenge and the Lotus Vintage Formula Challenge.
