- Algarve International Circuit: iRacing takes its first trip to Portugal with the addition of Portimão! The track includes both Grand Prix and Moto layouts, and each can be used with or without chicanes.
- Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli: iRacing’s latest Italian circuit features five layouts, including multiple historic and short configurations.
- Millbridge Speedway: Millbridge is the Charlotte-area quarter-mile dirt oval where NASCAR stars come to play between races—and now it’s yours on iRacing!
