Gran Turismo Sport PS4 Update 1.29 Patch Notes: Nine New Cars and new F1 track added TODAY (Pic: SONY)

PS4 Exclusive Gran Turismo Sport has today released a brand new update to the game.

The headline addition to the game comes in the form of NINE new cares plus the new Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya track, which many F1 enthusiasts will no doubt be familiar with.

In addition to the new content, the update has also introduced two new GT League events. These include the MINI Challenge (Beginner League), and a X2014 Nations Cup (Professional League).

For those conscious of space on their PS4, this new November update only takes up a relatively tiny 2.566 GB.

You can take a look at some of the new content introduced today in the brand new November Update trailer just below, but keep reading for the full patch notes.

We remedied an issue with the "Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Final Edition Gr.3" where the position of the canard wing on the left front fender and the rear view while in the cockpit view mode were not accurate. (For more information regarding the correction to the canard wing, please see “'Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution Final Edition Gr.3' Livery Data Warning. ”)

The engine sound of the "Gran Turismo Red Bull X2014 Standard 14" has been altered.

We have updated the names for "Fuji International Speedway" (formerly "Fuji Speedway F") and "Fuji International Speedway (Short)" (formerly "Fuji Speedway GT").

We fixed an issue in GT League where opponent cars were not being refuelled in the "GT League Endurance" races.

Various other issues have also been addressed.
