This is the discussion thread for an article on GTPlanet:

First Ever Fully Sanctioned FIA Esports Event Will Use Gran Turismo 7​

An annual virtual racing tournament, arranged by motoring organizations in the Middle East and North Africa using Gran Turismo 7, will become the first in the world to operate under the new FIA International Sporting Code for esports later this month...
 
With GT penalty system it will be really FIA alike
I suspect, given that they'll be having in-person stewards and a race director, it'll be like the GT World Series events: track-based penalties will be automatic and lenient, but driving standards will be determined by humans.
 
This sound very intresting and a good read by Andrew as always, but I hope they could add a tweak so we do see as @05XR8 mentioned, an in-game safety car being used, either a AMG Merc or Aston amrtin redressed in a new livery for this event, to parade the cars aorund before each race, it would be so cool! For the rolling starts it wud be so Epic!!!

Maybe I'm barking up the wrong Pd/Saudi/Uae preverbural Tree??

I don’t really see the need for a safety car…
 
Something tells me that elusive „sport mode improvements” in spec3 are tied to this somewhat.

Given that this event takes place more than a month before Spec III is available to the public, and that Appendix E is all about events organised by FIA ASNs, can you explain how you're seeing any connection at all?

Sorry didn’t read all the news with dates.
