- More natural changes in track conditions
- introduction of a rainfall radar – Variable time and weather are not just visual representations. They are now closely tied to the physics simulation model of a car
- affecting surface temperatures which in turn affect tyre grip
- and other conditions affecting even the engine power. During rainfall
- grip is reduced in places where water is accumulated
- and the track starts to dry first from the lines where the cars pass over most often
- to gradually recover in grip. These types of natural condition changes are represented properly in the simulation. In order to accommodate the real weather effects
- GT7 now also features a rainfall radar
- allowing players to predict upcoming weather conditions on a track and supporting them in developing the strategy for those long races.

- ’Licence Centre’ and ’Missions’ – GT7 contains a variety of fun activities other than the many races that represent the core of the experience.
