Sony closed down Evolution because their games overlapped a lot with another huge studio they have.
It just wouldn't make sense to have another realistic racer like that.

Luckily Codemasters did dissagree about that and still sees a market or arcade racers on consoles. Besides they could have made Motorstorm PS4, since that doesn't compete with GT. But considering Sony doesn't see a market for that game either they closed down the studio. 

That and also the last Motorstorm didn't do very well partly due to the horrible timing for the theme that game was going for. Rip japanese people :(
