Instead of releasing lower level tickets, they could put standards that they upgrade to premium as a prize (if they ever do it). 👍.
I had that idea in my head for quite some time. PD is a bit to the "surprise" kind of thing, so It would be great if they did something like that. Perhaps not just standard-to-premium cars, but some cars that weren't even available in the game prior, while both being at their intended Seasonals, e.g. a premium Ferrari 250 GTO in the Historic Cup Seasonal the OP suggested.
In addition to that, I would like to see the Seasonals everyone else suggested. But I also hope PD gives out more stricter restrictions, like these:
- Disabling Power Limiter/Ballast
- Requiring to buy something, e.g. tuning parts
- Requiring to restrict Power Limiter/Ballast
- Disabling any tuning parts, even suspension, LSD, and Brake Bias tuning
- Capping tire level
- More car spec restrictions, like torque, power-to-weight, etc.
Possibly more. Finally, I like to see these kinds of Seasonals:
- Multi-class Seasonals, e.g. LMPs and GTs (you choose which class)
- "Stamina Seasonals", in which you drive in a very slow, bone stock car, like the Fiat 500, across several laps or a lap on a high-distance track, e.g. 1 lap on Nordschleife.
- "Chaser Seasonals", in which an AI car in a quick car gets a large headstart and you have to overtake the AI in b minutes or b laps inside a set, but slower car. It can also be identical cars, but the AI gets a headstart. Can be several AIs, too.
- "No Stinting Seasonals": Similar to time trials, but instead, you'll be on a track that has a large amount of laps, e.g. 2 laps on Nordschleife, and your goal is to achieve the shortest total race time possible. And since has time trial similarities, it is very restricted.
- "Extreme Seasonals": Similar to Expert Seasonals, but the car cannot be tuned in any way, while the AI has a bit faster cars, but isn't tuned, also.
- "Tuning King Seasonals" (Not sure): Similar to Time trials, but you're locked on a car that requires heavy suspension/LSD/brake bias tuning. Your goal is to configure them and try to achieve a good time on the track.
- "Loophole Seasonals": You're locked in a set car with other AI drivers with the same car as you, but with suspension/LSD/brake bias tuning. So your goal is to do the same to yours to match it with the AIs or tune it better.
- "Karting Challenges": Similar to the Karting Experience on Special Events, but you're placed on tracks w/ many laps or many miles/kilometers, like a lap on Nordschleife.
- "RM Challenges": You're locked in a RM-capable car, e.g. Lexus ISF, while the AI has the same car, as well. The goal is obvious -- get to podium or pole.
- "Shuffle Challenges": Inspired by the online Shuffle option, you're forced to go through a shuffle in various cars, while meeting set factors and parameters. The AI also goes through the same thing, so there's no way of knowing what car the AI will get in the end.
- "Wet Racing Challenges": You have to drive on a wet track, either raining or not. Restrictions and parameters is PD's discretion.
