This week brings three new combinations in Gran Turismo 7 for Week 21 of 2026. We're heading to Autódromo de Interlagos, Nürburgring Endurance II, and Dragon Trail Seaside. It's a properly varied set this week. A short sprint at Interlagos in a vintage Lamborghini, a brutal one-lap Gr.3 stint around the Nordschleife with a massive reward bonus attached, and a Gr.4 endurance run at Dragon Trail with mandatory tyre management. Three completely different challenges.
Daily Race A: Autódromo de Interlagos in the Lamborghini Diablo GT '00
Autódromo de Interlagos in Brazil spans 4.31 km with 15 corners and 43 m of elevation. It's a short lap with plenty of overtaking opportunities, set in the heart of São Paulo, and it's one of the tracks that always seems to deliver good racing.
The Lamborghini Diablo GT '00 on Sports Medium tyres for 5 laps is a classic Daily Race A format. Clean racing wins, and qualifying pace will set up your race more than overtaking will.
The Diablo GT at Interlagos looks like a fairly interesting combination overall. The car is genuinely difficult to manage, lots of power and not a lot of forgiveness in the chassis, but Interlagos is one of those tracks that consistently produces good races. It's going to require focus and commitment to get right, especially through the Senna S and the long left-hander onto the back straight where the Diablo's weight transfer will catch out anyone who's lazy with their inputs.
Daily Race B: Nürburgring Endurance II in Gr.3
Nürburgring Endurance II in Germany spans 20.83 km with 73 corners and 300 m of elevation. It's the Green Hell, twenty-plus kilometres of relentless commitment, blind crests, and walls that arrive sooner than they should.
Gr.3 on Racing Mediums for one lap is short and sharp on paper, but at the Nürburgring, one lap is still close to 8 to 9 minutes of racing where any mistake essentially ends your race. Qualifying matters way more than usual here because overtaking the entire Nordschleife with traffic is its own challenge.
This is the standout race of the week for two reasons. First, this is the World Series combination being used this weekend, so anyone following or competing in the World Series should treat this Daily as essential practice. Second, there's a significant reward bonus (1000%) on this race, which makes it worth running even if you're not chasing rating.
Daily Race C: Dragon Trail Seaside in Gr.4
Dragon Trail Seaside spans 5.30 km with 18 corners and 57 m of elevation. It's the seaside esplanade and the long back straight, flowing and dramatic, and a track that's appeared in plenty of past Daily Race rotations.
Gr.4 on Racing Hard tyres for 11 laps with ×2 fuel and ×4 tyre wear, and no mandatory pit stop. That last bit is the interesting twist. With ×4 wear over 11 laps, your tyres are going to fall off, but you're not required to pit. Tyre management is going to decide the podium here. The drivers who can stretch their stint without burning through the rears will have a huge advantage in the closing laps, especially when the faster cars start sliding around.
We've had this combination a few times before and it's never really disappointed. Dragon Trail Seaside in Gr.4 with serious tyre wear is the kind of race that rewards patience and punishes aggression.
Final Thoughts
A solid week overall. A short sprint at Interlagos in the Diablo to warm up, a brutal one-lap Gr.3 grind at the Nürburgring for those chasing rating and the World Series tie-in, and a strategic Gr.4 endurance run at Dragon Trail that'll separate the prepared from the rest. Let us know what you think about this combination. It looks like it could be a very interesting one.
