Not sure how many are aware of the fairly new feature on the PS4 called SharePlay which allows a "host" (person who owns a game) to share with "guests" (those who don't own the game) through the PS4's party chat feature.
Now, I could see this being implemented for GT7, as it's up to the developer's discretion as to whether or not they allow the feature to be used with their game. The best possible scenario with SharePlay with GT7 would be the ability to do endurances races with a group through SharePlay since the host has the ability to "pass on" the controller to another person that's viewing the SharePlay. The only downside is that the SharePlay feature is 60 minute time limits, so every hour, the host would have to restart it. That would pretty much leave it at being good for offline events only in it's current form.
Of course, there's also the ability to pass on the controller to someone who can assist you if you're stuck on something, like tuning or a race/event that you might be struggling to win.
