What Grid: Autosport is

Grid: Autosport is a racing game developed by Codemasters Southam and released in 2014. It was published by Codemasters. It is available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 3, Xbox 360, Android, iOS, Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows). It runs on Ego Engine.

The premise, in the publisher's words

Grid Autosport is a 2014 racing video game developed and published by Codemasters. It was released Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, with ports for Linux, iOS, macOS, Nintendo Switch and Android arriving later. It is the third game in the Grid series. It aims to move the series back towards "more authentic racing games" following the release of Grid 2, which Codemasters felt was not as well-received by the company's core fanbase as it was hoped for. The developers consequently introduced major modifications to the handling model and built a lean, race-first oriented design for this title.
