So 265k(UK) 235k(France) 92(Spain) 20k(Finland first day) 100k(Italy)=712k

EMEAA = 1174k(VGC) - 712k = 462k

Only 462k with Germany Portugal Netherlands .....rest Europe Africa Asia Australia ?

Yes, and Italy was actually "over 100k" so it could be anywhere from 100-150k I think. I think EMEAA fw sales are undertracked maybe a tiny bit, probably around 100k.

yeah probably but not much more going by these numbers. Though 100k are still in the margin of error.

Germany is a smaller gaming market than France so 190k there (assuming same attach rate as France) and Portugal and Netherlands together might be as big as Spain.

Attach rates:

EMEAA (VGC numbers): 5.9%
UK: 7.5%
France:  8.46%
Italy: 5.36% (for 100k)

No Germany is equal or bigger than France for Gran Turismo series.

Over 200k (like France) is my bet for Germany.

There are more PS3 owners in France, overall France is a bigger market than Germany (only counting console and handhelds) and France has the highest attach ratio of all countries so far. Not saying it's impossible, but it seems a bit unlikely that German sales are that close to France.
Even the 190k figure is already pretty much the optimum of GT5 sales and unless there are any studies or hard numbers, there is no reason to assume that GT is more popular in Germany than in France.
