In none of the videos that have come out by now I can see the drops fall. Which leads me to ask a question to the participants of the event.

I want to know. Have you ever seen the rain?

Man we need cockpit view footage.

I want to see those rain drops on the windshield.

I'm sure there won't be any. Because what we get is more wet track than true rain. Maybe a light spray from the car in front, but I'm still not convinced.

I also think it won't be VR compatible.

Anyway, I think static wet conditions are useless. It's interesting when the weather changes and you have to be strategic about your tires choices, and how you manage the evolution of the track. But start to finish in same wet conditions seems just boring to me.

Already confirmed that it's actual rain.

For most Daily/FIA races it would be more unusual to go from dry to wet to dry in the space of a dozen laps.

And there is also the option to drive with no rain but with a wet track. This was in time trial and the surface had more grip than when it was raining in our Nations qualifying.

That sounds interesting.

It's really great. I don't even like musicals but they do some Jackie Chan level choreography in that film.

I know it is; I own a Blu-Ray copy and already watched it three times in the last two years. But watching it on actual film, it is a totally different experience. Colours are much more pronounced and textured.

Also, isn't it the other way around? How Jackie Chan was influenced by classic Hollywood cinema (most of all Buster Keaton and Harold Lloyd)?

I was fortunate enough to project a 35mm print way back in film school. That was actually my first exposure to that film.

That's great, haven't seen any confirmation of that myself.

Nice, thank you for the info!
If may i can ask how is driving in the wet conditions, do you find it any good?

I've only used Gr B cars so far with heavy wets but the track surface is just generally lower everywhere, especially kerbs. Wet lines didn't work from what I felt but I wouldn't want to confirm that until I've had more time practicing and with a different category of car.
 
It is summer today... Why asking for rain...
GT fan are the only one asking for rain ! Nobody want rain in real Life ! :lol:

Anyway can’t wait for the update :D
 
So.. Im late to the party...
But it's finally happening :D
All smiles here.. especially knowing everything that gets into GT Sport .. is going to be upgraded even further DAY 1 with PS5 Backwards Compatibility.
No more tears from me lacking a next gen GT game at PS5 launch!

Rain only on the Red Bull track or other tracks too?

That's the thing I really want to know. Surely even PD wouldn't do rain on just one circuit.

Maybe PD will add rain to a couple circuits on each update. So, for example, rain for Red Bull Ring, Nurburgring and Suzuka on this update, and then rain for Interlagos and Fuji on the next one and so on.
 
For everyone hoping to see water droplets:
1) Open the below video on twitter.com, by clicking the twitter logo (For some reason the quality is very low when viewing the video here and they are impossible to see, but when watched directly on twitters webpage the video quality is much higher)
2) Watch in full screen.
When seeing the original high quality video is very easy to see the rain drops coming down at 0:20-0:25, as the camera is looking toward the cars going through turn 2.

I'm honestly impressed by the quality of this. I didn't think they'd be able to pull this off, I expected more of a slightly reflective track and a bit of spray, but this looks really good.

Can you tell us how do the rain physics compare to other sims?
