Your image is 800px wide while the forum can display 1000px wide images in posts ?
And wider images (1200px) can be viewed in a lightbox too.
So I am a bit surprised by your answer.
It just shows a bigger image, not a better quality.
Not a big deal, but I've never understood why those weekly events screen caps are so small
I used to think that it was to limit the interest of stealing them for Twitter or else, but as long as they are watermarked with GTPlanet...

Here's 1280x720:
And 1000x563:
And 800x450:
And a screenshot of all three at once in my post:
Yes, that's how zooming in works outside of TV cop shows.
They're crap quality because they're off a PS4. They start at 1920x1080, but then I have to crop the black borders off so they're about 1800x1024. I resize them to 1280x720 (and leave the watermark off) for the article, and post them in here in 800x450.
Here's a PS4-original-size shot of one event compared to a PS5-shrunk-to-match version:
I don't think it's hard to see the quality difference.
Personally, despite my advancing age and deteriorating vision, I can read all four of the events, work out what the Special is, and read the prizes on the 800x450 shot. I don't know what other information you'd need.
Can I get back to the articles now?

Since the randomizer seems still bugged, I had a look into my garage and thought I'd stick with some of my former Special Event cars.
The Skyline is engine-swapped now, the Gallardo is @AlexWilmot 's tune. Not sure about its fuel consumption but ... I'll see tomorrow. Think I've got a nice mix of fast and super fast cars
- ready to go !

FM6 and shifting in the middle of the rev bar should work 👍
FYI my quick rough BAC mono tune will probably be overkill if you try it

To me it does not look bugged itself, I think simply @Nakano219 (to whom I give many thanks for this awesome tool, something PD could and should simply implement in game!) has had no chance to manually add the new races, but it is still possible to select manually the events.Since the randomizer seems still bugged, I had a look into my garage and thought I'd stick with some of my former Special Event cars.

Had to reroll twice the Sunday Cup because first it gave me the 356 Carrera I have in too many wallpapers now after all the special events and then the Barker Tourer which I do not have.
If anyone could suggest me a Scape that can give a good look to this set of cars in the photo with the five all together, please drop a hint

Thanks for this hint - I've checked again and have understood now how to operate it correctly in its current state. 👍

Oh dear, managed to complete the challenges at the very last this time, I was afraid I wouldn't make it.
1) Sunday Cup @ Broad Bean Raceway
Randomised a stock S660 for this one, which I had but never used. So I took it, added some cosmetic/aero stuff from GT Auto to make it look cool and painted it in the beautiful Valencia Red, then put some sports suspensions and Work ZR10 wheels again for the looks. Won easy, and the car was super fun to drive as well. Interested in trying the swapped version in the future.
Didn't get shafted, but I already forgot what I won. Some Titanium connecting rods for the Aventador, maybe?
2) Japanese FF 450 @ Autopolis Short
Once again Rando gave me a car I had never driven before, being the Suzuki Swift Sport ZC31S which many of my friends actually own/owned irl. Painted it as usual and took on the race stock, wasn't enough. Added a couple mods, namely exhaust line and ECU, and this time managed to overtake the Integra on the last lap. Fun race!
3) Evolution Meeting @ Kyoto Driving Park
So I realized I was running out of time badly, so I decided I'd just take this on with my Praiano 700pp Escudo Evolution X. Needless to say, dominated the race with ease and got the 150k ticket.
4) Mazda MX-5 NA Special @ Suzuka
Again, I was in a hurry and was also very curious to try the 13B Miata which I've had ever since the Bonanza but never used, so why not? Put on the 700pp Praiano setup and literally ate the competition alive, by halfway through lap 1 I was on the lead. Gonna use this baby boy at Le Mans for the grind, it was super fun to drive.
5) Gr.1 Prototypes @ Road Atlanta
So the final one, which I did the day after the other four (literally just finished it). Gym had me really tired plus I've been having thoughts running through my mind these days, so focus was not something I could count on. Had to try the R92CP as Rando said, but given all the situation I eventually used the LM55 and won with ease. No picture since it was scummy of me to do this.
Car ticket gave me the Ford GT LM Test Car Gr. 3 which saved me 1.2 mils so I'm happy.

Completed the last 2 races tonight, ran the Miata race twice, either side of Road Atlanta, as it was a fun race.
Won the Road Atlanta with my LM55 VGT regular version RM tyres and FM5. Stopped after 7 and 14 laps.
Prize car was this, which I already have from the gift for watching the World Tour event, so I sold the dupe for 530k credits. I'm now back to 3m credits building slowly to my next LCD target, or to fund purchase of new cars in any November update...

This is the discussion thread for an article on GTPlanet:
Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges: Mono Culture
Depending on where you are in the world, there’s a new set of Gran Turismo 7 Weekly Challenges either now available or becoming available in the next few hours, with five more events to tackle across the next week...

Ran the Randomizer for next week while I was at it, had to manually set it up. And here goes:
Rerolled the GT-R Cup as it gave me the T-Spec once again and I used it last time at St. Croissant, wanted to use something else this time. And after countless years, I'll be driving my first Gr.3 ever once again, the C7!

Cars picked. Liveries done.
I'm expecting I'll have to make some modifications to the GT-R to have any hope in it. Let's see how it does tomorrow.
I'm not thrilled about the roulette ticket. I'll cross my fingers for something worth more than 500,000 credits, but I'm not getting my hopes up.

Did a no stop FM3 for the first 6 laps. FM5 & FM6 for Lap 7. Crossed the line with 1.0 lap left in tank. Continued FM6 for a third of lap 8 and switching to FM1, finishing with 0.5 laps left.
Edit: PD tried to give me a heart attack with the dang sprinkling of 2,000 gold Cr. on the roulette.
