Sadly seems like wishful thinking if we look at recent co-operations like Michelin or KW which both brought nothing to the came except a few logos.

Something I noticed in the Brembo trailer. If you look at the wheel reflection on the floor you will notice the reflection using very low LOD quality. Probably it's the direct result of trying to optimized RT quality. Increase the reflection resolution by simplifying geometry.
Here is the comparison from the first reveal trailer. You can see that the reflection is using higher geometry. Also, the top bar UX design changed a lot.

Also, the PS Showcase and Brembo trailers reveals a date of which the trailers/screenshots were captured, which may or may not relate to build progress:
PS Showcase: August 20-21 (trailer), September 2 (GT.com)
Brembo: October 1 (trailer), October 4 (GT.com)
The 2020 announcement trailer does not show a date so it's impossible to judge when where that one was captured, or which build date it was.

i should say first it's fully personal assumption
but i think pd had already modelled brake temperatures in the gt sport physics, they just hold it up or tune the effect to none to avoid confusion since we already have pretty much to think about during the races.
we know years before kaz showed a physics debug UI with cars running down various circuits,link here first:
the running clips are played at around 56:30-1:00:30 of the video, you may check it yourself
thanks to the poor recording quality we can't read any letter on the UI, but as personally I could guess around all the things with the car running as normal, so here is my assumption:
check the video itself would make my point more clear imo, u may notice the changes of values by color
but all in all, its fully personal, any other thoughts welcome

Let's be honest, the actual calculations to do basic brake temperature modelling are trivial to do to a level that would be acceptable for a game like Gran Turismo. This isn't an F1 simulator, it's a bare-bones sim that's trying to stay as accessible as possible.
But yeah, they've had the tech for a while in game. They use it to choose how bright to make the brake discs glow. That's it. They could take that data and use it to modify the performance of the brakes as well, which isn't trivial but isn't necessarily complex to do to a basic standard that would be good enough for most GT players. But it's unlikely, because there seems no particular reason why they would want to implement this added gameplay complexity now rather than at any point in the last 20 years of having glowing brake discs.

Something I noticed in the Brembo trailer was yet another collection, this time focused on the Toyota 86. This potentially changes things, whereas before hand, I had doubted that there would be collections based on a single model, and instead, I had thought that most if not all collections would try to include as wide of a variety of automakers as possible. But with this new collection based on the Toyota 86, I think that opens up quite a few possibilities. Heck, I don't think we even know if all collections will only have three cars like we've seen so far, or perhaps more.
For example, I could definitely see there being a four-car collection with the Nissan Skyline GT-R, which could include the original KPGC10, the R32, R33, and R34, as the release date trailer sort of implied. But with the 86, we have quite a few models bearing that monicker. That said, I can almost guarantee one of the cars in that collection will be the new GR 86, as well as the original Sprinter Trueno. As for what the third car will be, or if there might be more than three, I can't say I'd know. If there are truly only three in this particular collection, I'd personally pick the Toyota 86 GT '15, as it's the relatively basic version of the newly-revived 86. The 86 GRMN, 86 GT Limited '16, and the Corolla Levin could all simply be other cars that aren't necessarily part of the collection. Or who knows, maybe all six cars will be in the collection!
I also had another idea. What if there were collections featuring specific coachbuilders?

* = If added. Not only that, but I think it would be highly appropriate for Gran Turismo if these cars were added. Especially the Cisitalia 202 GT, which was the first car to be added to the MoMA's collection - and a car I saw there myself recently!
EDIT: Another thing I'm glad about is how it seems that the Ford GT Race Car '17 is the IMSA version. I'd love to see the Corvette C8.R and the BMW M8 racecar, too - as well as their road-going versions - though I don't mind if they're the GTLM or GTE versions. No, what I'm more interested in, is the larger possibility of DPi/LMDh cars coming to GT, as this would have profound implications on Gr.1, allowing tons of automakers both representation in Gr.1, and for other automakers to have alternative options within that group. I must say, Cadillac and Acura stand out as possible automakers from the DPi era, while Mazda and Nissan could obtain alternative options from the same era. Then there's LMDh, where it seems that tons of automakers want to get on-board, including BMW and even Lamborghini. That's before we get into LMH cars, such as Ferrari's return to prototype racing after at least 20 years!

I think the first thing I'm gonna do in GT7 is save up for the GT350R, and then use the livery editor to paint it in the 'Wimbleton White' heritage edition.

If the game has such a strong physics engine underneath it, why does it feel soo bad in GT Sport?
Edit: I feel like GT7 needs a hardcore mode with all these features enabled for those who really want a challenge.

Kaz mentioned in an interview that when a setting is changed, a simulation is ran on that car on a virtual course to predict the PP of the setting, to more accurately represent the cars PP value.

Meanwhile, still waiting on details for Southeast Asian physical pre-orders for the game, even though I'm not doing that.

I think gt7 is sucessifully tugging at people's nostalgia.Even with the market for racing games being more spread out today,people still remember the time GT was the only big boy on the block.

Yep. I want a Sunday cup or FF cup in an extreme hardcore mode. Cars tuned right up to the pp limit. Not just left for newbies races. I hate how the hard races are dull GT3 racing cars etc.

Like games such as GT2 or GT3 (for drivetrain ones... Sunday Cup pretty much has the likes of Clubman Cup as next level one). I do want for as many events to contain different levels of car performance, from low level perfomance, mid, and finally high level of that car type, like those 2 games, but also improved of course. Like for example in another drivetrain, MR event can be divided into low (MR-S level), mid (BMW i8 level), and high tier (FXX level).

Hi folks Ok what I know about GT7 is basically next to nothing,
I was an avid fan of GT up to GT6 which wasn't much good and GTS which I hated and threw in the bin after a week or so of owning it,
Does anyone know if GT7 is going to be like GTS or revert back to the best GT games like 3 and 4?
Is it more online racing or is there the more A-Spec racing where it is you and the game and online doesn't even have to come in to it?
I am hoping but I know it is a dream for it to have the Driveclub style sprints and a global leaderboard for such things, Is there?

I hope we get B-Spec mode, 360 degree chase cam, track editor and VR support.... Any likely?

In a way yes but much harder and I want the low powered races to be hard.
I hate they associate hard difficulty with higher power, I want harder difficulty on OEM cars Sunday cup races.
If I want a new sports eggsauce that add 3bhp for my 1990s JDM shizzbox, I want to have to work hard for it in a clubman cup race and win. That's the best part of GT, the beginning bit. It's just over within a few hours and races become dull with race cars been the extreme.
