GT7 Daily Races 15 April: Happy trails

Monday brings new Sport Mode races to Gran Turismo 7 in the shape of the GT7 Daily Races, but fan excitement is also increasing as we are just a week away from finding out what will be in Update 1.46.

But before then, we have three new Sport Mode races to win! This week takes players to a pair of Formula 1 venues for some stiff competition. Let's take a look.

Race A

Monza - No Chicane - 6 laps

The first race of the week takes us around the Temple of Speed, Monza. This race will be done on the "no chicane" layout, which will see you fly past the normal first corner.

You will be in the Chaparral 2J '70, on Racing Hard tyres for this race. There is 1x fuel consumption and tyre wear, with the 12-car field using a grid start to begin the race.

Each car will use a high-speed BoP with no further adjustments allowed. DR is off for this race, but SR will be on so try not to crash out any fellow competitors.

There is light mechanical damage in this race, along with light shortcut penalties and penalties for collisions with other cars.

Race B

Spa-Francorchamps - 4 laps

We're off to the Ardennes forest next for four laps around the glorious Spa-Francorchamps in Gr.3 cars.

The 16-car field will use a rolling start to begin the race, so get a qualifying lap in as you will need to be in the top six or so to win here. Everyone will be on the Racing Medium tyre, with 1x fuel consumption and tyre wear for this race.

Once again each car will use a high-speed BoP, but this time some changes are allowed. Players can make partial suspension & differential gear changes, while brake balance adjustments are also allowed.

Both DR & SR are switched on for this race, so finishing high & racing clean is vital.

There is light mechanical damage in this race, along with light shortcut penalties and penalties for collisions with other cars.

Race C

Dragon Trail - Gardens - 11 laps

The final race is a tyre test at Dragon Trail Gardens in Gr.4 cars.

This race has 3x fuel consumption, 6x tyre wear, and a mandatory pitstop with only the Racing Medium tyres permitted. That means keeping your tyres in good order to let you carry speed through the endless switchbacks and the quadruple right-hander will be vital to success.

Each car will use a mid-speed BoP. Once again partial suspension and differential gear changes are allowed, along with full brake balance adjustments.

As usual with Race C, both DR & SR are switched on and as mentioned there is a mandatory pitstop.

There is light mechanical damage in this race, along with light shortcut penalties and penalties for collisions with other cars. There is also a penalty for cutting the pit lane entry/exit lines so be sure to stay on the correct side.
