GT7 Daily Races 28 August: Back to basics

September is nearly here but there are still a few summer races left thanks to the GT7 Daily Races 28 August. This week's rotation takes us from Japan to Europe, and has a more traditional feel to it than some recent weeks.

As the end of the month is here players were expecting an update to the game too, but with the last one being oddly timed to connect with the Gran Turismo movie it looks like we won't get an update this week.

Race A

Suzuka - East Course - 6 laps

This week's unranked race is a callback to Gran Turismo's glory days as we get a Clio Cup race! We'll be taking the Clio RS 220 Trophy '16 around the east course of Suzuka, which is the pit straight and esses section.

Players will be on the Comfort Soft tyre for this one, with 1x fuel consumption and tyre wear. The 12-car field will use a grid start.

Every car will be using a mid-speed BoP for this race, with no settings adjustments allowed. As usual, DR & SR are switched off for this race.

There is light mechanical damage turned on, along with light shortcut penalties and penalties for collisions.

Race B

Dragon Trail - Gardens - 4 laps

The first ranked race of the week takes to the Gardens layout of Dragon Trail (the one WITHOUT the death chicane) for a four-lap race in Gr.4 cars.

Everyone will be using the Racing Hard tyre in this one, with 1x fuel consumption & tyre wear and a rolling start for the 16-car field.

Each car will use a mid-speed BoP, however brake balance adjustments are allowed during the race. SR & DR will be switched on for this one, meaning any crashes or bad results will count toward your ratings.

There is light mechanical damage turned on, along with light shortcut penalties and penalties for collisions.

Race C

Deep Forest - 12 laps

The final race of the week takes us to Deep Forest for 12 laps in Gr.3 cars. This race will see everyone use Racing Soft tyres, but there is a twist.

There is 2x fuel consumption and 5x tyre wear in this race along with a mandatory stop. However, only the Racing Soft tyres are available so it might be a case of saving some rubber!

The 16-car field will use a rolling start in this one, so qualifying well will be important.

Once again a mid-speed BoP is in use but with brake balance adjustments allowed. Of course, DR & SR will be on for this race too.

There is light mechanical damage turned on, along with light shortcut penalties and penalties for collisions. There is also a penalty for pit lane line cutting so when you make your stop be sure to stay on the correct side of the line!
