February 28, 2021 By Dan Thornton Leave a Comment

Reiza Studios have released a sizeable update with a range of changes. But the big news is that Automobilista 2 update V1.1.2.0 adds classic Spa, two Group C cars, and the Stock Car 1999 Omega series.

The Spa-Francorchamps layout available now is the 1993 version, and it’s available to race if you’ve purchased the Automobilista 2 Spa-Francorchamps Pack which also includes a laser-scanned replica of the modern 2020 track, and will be expanded with the 1960s layout of 14 kilometres.

The first is the Porsche 962C which debuted in 1985, and became one of the most dominant cars in motorsport, winning the World Sportscar Championship in 1985 and 1986, the IMSA GT Championship from 185 until 1988, the 24 Horus of Le Mans in 1986 and 1987 and a variety of other series.

Notable drivers of the Porsche 962 include a host of famous names including Mario and Michael Andretti, Tiff Needell, Derek Bell, Henri Pescarolo, Jacky Ickx, Stefan Belloff, Jochen Mass, Jan Lammers and many more.

You’ll be able to race against it in the 1987 Sauber C9, which was also driven by Jochen Mass. In the 1989 championship, the Sauber C9 won all races except one at Dijon Prenois, with Jean-Louis Schlesser crowned champion.
