I really do wish that this means GT7 will support VR for online races, even if some compromises have to be made with resolution, frame rate, player count, or being PS5 only (speaking as someone who doesn't yet have one). Tight tracks like Tsukuba are a pain if I can't turn my head to see the apex, and Horse Thief Mile is completely impossible to run consistently. If a more expansive VR support is realised, then perhaps more of these tighter tracks can be in GT7, and low powered cars can shine more.
Moreover, with how GTS keeps harping on sportsmanship and responsible driving, not being able to turn your head to see opponent cars or even your mirrors is a bad joke.
