While Gran Turismo 5 is yet to out, Polyphony seemed to want to tease the fans again. Last time they teamed up with Citroen, and this time its Red Bull’s turn. The latest collaboration brought the recently-crowned world champion Red Bull Racing team on board for the X1 prototype. Again, an extreme high-performance vehicle designed specifically for the game – this time a vision of what an F1 car could be if not for all the pesky regulations. Initial reports that the car is powered by a turbine engine are now being corrected to an F1-derived, direct-injection, twin-turbo V6. Fortunately, the 1483-horsepower output remains. But then all these are still on the paper, and in the game. The prototype is a full-size mock-up that will be unveiled during the game’s launch party, scheduled for Madrid in a few weeks’ time.
