Racing games that need a sequel

INDYCAR SERIES Every major racing league has its own game. There is the annual Formula 1 game, NASCAR's Heat-Series and many more. IndyCar once had its own video game back in 2003 which was developed by Codemasters. Nowadays, IndyCar is at least featured in iRaicng, but definitley needs a sequel after almost 20 years. MOTORSPORT MANAGER While the game is not really about driving cars and having the best lap times, Motorsport Manager has been an awesome game for racing enthusiasts for the last four years. Even with many updates and DLCs the game is a bit outdated, though. It is definitley time for a sequel. IRACING iRacing is arguably the most popular sim racing game on the market. But at this point the simulation is more than five years old. A sequel could offer a ton of new features as well as better performance. However, the developers are still busy releasing new content on a regular basis. Project CARS The release of Project Cars 2 was more than three years ago. Even though Slightly Mad Studios published a ton of DLCs and plenty of new content since 2017. Indeed, the studio announced part three a while ago, claiming that "The next Project CARS is going to be a Revolution." We look forward to it! THE CREW The Crew 2 is just shy of its second anniversary. Just like Project Cars the game enjoys regular DLCs and content updates. But it has one major problem: A steadily plummeting player base. Maybe a sequel could breathe life into the series again? RFACTOR 2 Just like iRacing, rFactor 2 is a well-known racing simulation. But it is even older than iRacing, being published in March 2013. The game really needs an update to compete with its slightly younger rival. Indeed, a well-made rFactor 3 could challenge iRacing's dominance among racing sims. TRACKMANIA TrackMania is one of the most popular franchises in the racing genre. The last game of the series called "TrackMania 2 Lagoon" was published in May 2017. It's really about time for another part of the series in 2020! BURNOUT MOTORSTORM

We have seen plenty of awesome racing games in the past, but is it time for them to be replaced by sequels?
