Michelin Lights Up The Racetrack in "Gran Turismo" Movie!

2023-09-07

 

Michelin has taken centre stage on the silver screen as official tyre partner of Gran Turismo, Hollywood’s latest movie for racing fans celebrating the true story of how a teenager’s virtual gaming skills in Gran Turismo racing simulator propelled him onto the real-world racetrack.  

Throughout the filming of the movie, Michelin ensured the right motorsport competition and high-performance tyres were used in thrilling recreations of races on actual circuits in Central Europe and Middle East such as Nurburgring, Redbullring, Slovakiaring and Dubai Autodrome.

 

 

The collaboration between Michelin and PlayStation’s award-winning Gran Turismo franchise goes beyond the world of cinema with Michelin’s present role as official tyre supplier of FIA Certified Gran Turismo Championships and official tyre technology partner for Gran Turismo. 

 

 

As the high-octane movie speeds into theaters in Malaysia, Michelin will continue bridging the boundary between virtual and real racing by enriching the realistic online driving experience in Gran Turismo with proven tyre technologies from over 100 years of motorsports racing.
