Super Formula’s New SF23 Teased for Gran Turismo 7​

The official English-language Super Formula social media accounts have teased that the new SF23, to be used from the upcoming 2023 season, may be heading to Gran Turismo 7...

Now can we get a Super Formula championship along with this? Pretty please?

 

[Mirai]

My body is ready

 

[PletdeKoe]

Great news, but it’ll be just a car. No events etc.

 

[R3V]

I want the F2004. Should be in every race sim.

Now can we get a Super Formula championship along with this? Pretty please?

Hopefully along with Sugo.

 

[MXR_Sparky]

I’m famous, mum. 😂 glad I asked for the SF23 to be in GT7!

 

[gd224]

Great news, but it’ll be just a car. No events etc.

As long as we can tune it like the SF19 to work in the Gr.1 menu book races then I'll take it. But I would like a Super Formula set of races too...

The white or the red… which one will I choose this time? Choices choices….

 

[Tired Tyres]

You just know it will be mixed with the '19 in races cos PD is PD.

hmm , in theory they could but mix only happens when they do group cars but when they did formulas they always manually select them
i wish they did the same with the Super GT cars instead of mix Gr.2 cars with CLK

 

[kjb]

Hopefully they will a couple of tracks and some events as well

 

[BrunusCL82]

Habemus Sugo and Motegi?

I hope so.

 

[TheRacer94]

With spec update

 

[HarVee]

Can we get some events for it too Polyphony? This can't be too difficult to ask for.

 

[Veinz]

A single player championship would be a no brainer for this dlc. Maybe even one where you have to qualify instead of starting at the back like every other race in the game. I know, crazy expectations right?

 

[vrossi]

I'd rather have this Honda...

 

[gtone339]

Future dlc + road cars included.

 

[Fezzik]

probably not coming in the next update then - sometime around the season start in April still a possibility

The last one arrived in March 2019, between the second pre-season test (March 26/27) and the first race at Suzuka (April 21).

If the SF23 is coming, I'd expect it to be at a similar point, so late March (23/30) ahead of R1/2 at Fuji on April 7-8.

An F4 car would be a great addition. I dont see anyone racing these fast open wheelers.

 

[Interstellar9]

Well paid events, please!

 

[MXR_Sparky]

Morning guys, I asked the official Japanese account about the SF23, and it liked the tweet I sent. So am guessing it’s coming! Here’s the tweet, click on the likes.

The first time we heard about the SF19 coming to GTS, was when a magazine was distributed at a Super Formula race.

2019 Super Formula SF19 Coming to Gran Turismo Sport This Month [UPDATE]

UPDATE: Since this article was originally published, an official trailer (embedded below) and screenshots for the new car have been released by Polyphony Digital. Well consider this a surprise: a new open-wheel racer is seemingly coming to Gran Turismo Sport this month. Meet the Super Formula SF1

Super Formula is not a very interesting racing vehicle, it would be better for PD to think about the latest GT500 cars from Super GT. We skipped silhouette prototypes like the Lexus LC500 which dominated the series more than anyone else, now we skip the front-engined NSX, Nissan Z, Supra which are significantly different from the 2016 cars in terms of aerodynamics and engine. It's a shame that the current fastest closed-wheel cars in the world aren't in GT7, given the Super GT and Gran Turismo connection.

 

[05XR8]

We don't know if they'll skip current gen Super GT500.

As for Super Formula, we never got the past Formula Nippon cars, that would have fit in with previous GT games. I mean, we had semi-replica Formula One cars and actual Formula One cars. GT Sport gave us an actual new series in the SF19 cars and looks like it'll continue with SF23. There's still time that we might get current GT500 models.

This Honda seems pretty decent enough to me

Sugo with weather. Its probably my favorite track of all time, lets hope it makes it into the game someday.

Super GT cars are a staple of the Gran Turismo series. I’ve no doubt the likes of the new Supra and Z GT500’s will arrive. There’s a less compelling case for the NSX, but it makes sense to make all three.

But GT7 also desperately lacks single-seaters & one-make cars. For a series with such a strong online component, such cars are great for close, competitive racing. Not to mention great for livery creators.
