Some cars have visible clocks in them so you can check the time of day the game's running at. With the new x30 time option it's also quick to reach the final time after which it stops increasing, so it's easy to check what the full timeslot the game. I tried searching if someone had compiled the times before and I couldn't find anything, so my bad if it was already done!

Some notes:
  • I didn't test dirt tracks, but Colorado Springs has a full 24h cycle and Sardegna most likely matches the same times as it has the same options
  • Some of the starting times for the tracks seem oddly specific, so there might be some randomness element to it. Same result every time I tried those tracks though
  • Review-day GT7 let you choose the starting time exactly instead of a timeframe. I only have a screenshot of it for Monza on SuperGT's review but the timeslot they allowed there (8:00 to 18:30) is different from the one here
  • Some tracks in GT Sport had timeslots that fall outside the ranges they have in 7, most notably Spa (pre-24h layout)

Not exactly a big deal but when you see stuff like this you just can't work out what is going on at PD HQ sometimes.

So few tracks having 24hr cycle after they advertised it as a feature is a bigger deal though. For shame.
 
Next, figure out the date each track is at ;)

N24 24h cycle has about 8 hours between sunset and sunrise, 16 hour day time.

It's definitely summer for Europe in-game. I'm kinda curious if they're taking the real life date for the in-game timeframes, would explain why most of them start at odd times. Should be testable in a few weeks if the times change at all compared to this list.

Interesting concept. Wonder if they are doing that. Seems unlikely to be honest, imagine it's aligned globally and if anything more likely to be seasons like in fh5, albeit not advertised, which doesn't surprise me, knowing what pd are like.
