There are a lot of dedicated Gran Turismo fans who have been anxiously awaiting the next entry to the esteemed driving simulation series. It's been over two years since the PlayStation 3 release of Gran Turismo 6, after all, and developer Polyphony Digital has been very conservative with the information they've released about their upcoming game. Luckily, series creator Kazunori Yamauchi has recently announced via the PlayStation.Blog that Sony will soon hold a streaming event where players can expect "new details" regarding the team's next release, Gran Turismo Sport.

The event will be held in (and streamed from) London on May 19, and the headline feature will be the display of a new trailer for the game. Sony will also be streaming other Gran Turismo events, including two Gran Turismo Championship pre-season races, which are set to kick off shortly after the new trailer.

Fans will be able to check out the stream live via the official Gran Turismo YouTube channel or the official PlayStation YouTube channel. The new GT Sport trailer will be shown off shortly after the event starts at 10:45 am PT, with the Championships set to begin 15 minutes later at 11:00 am.
