Red Bull Racing's X2014 concept car to feature in GT6

Red Bull Racing has revealed its X2014 concept car that will feature in the upcoming Gran Turismo 6 racing game.

The Formula 1 team's chief technical officer Adrian Newey worked alongside Polyphony Digital to develop the road car, which is obviously very much inspired by F1 car design.

Elements such as the F1 car nose and low-hanging front spoiler are proof of this, although the design features headlamps and fenders surrounding the tires. The cockpit is enclosed, as are the rear wheels.

The game will feature three versions of the car. The X2014/F or ‘fan car' is pictured, while there will also be the ‘Standard' X2014/S and ‘Junior' X2014/J.

Red Bull Racing and Newey have previous experience of developing cars for the series, having helped design the X1 Prototype in the previous edition.

Fans of the series don't have to wait long to experience the X2014 – or other concept cars developed by some of the world's top design studios – with Gran Turismo 6 set for launch on Friday.
