The app that can monitor Gran Turismo 7 time trial telemetry, tyre pressures and racing lines

There are several unique driving techniques required to be quick in Gran Turismo 7, such as brake bias adjustments and crucial gear changes.

Watching back the world’s best in the reply system is extremely useful – but what if you could take the analysis one step further?

That’s what the team at Coach Dave Academy is claiming its latest Delta update can do.

Taking information from your internet – a Windows PC must be on the same connection as your PlayStation and running at the same time – it can glean telemetry information such as braking and acceleration traces plus fuel use.

Your data can be compared lap by lap, shared with a friend or overlaid from a replay taken from an in-game leaderboard.

The latter feature should be pertinent for the weekly Daily Races, which rely on a time attack qualifying format, and the Lap Time Challenge online leaderboards. Simply open Delta, load Gran Turismo 7, watch a reply and then the app will capture the telemetry data.

In theory, this allows users to see minute details and consider where a competitor may be gaining time. The system also provides sector breakdowns in accordance with an on-screen track map that displays the lines taken.

While GT7 does not display such information natively, Delta can also provide tyre temperatures and pressures.

A Gran Turismo-specific subscription for Delta is priced at €4.99 per month or €49 per year, with a seven-day free trial. A multi-format plan, that includes setups and analysis for iRacing, Assetto Corsa, Assetto Corsa Competizione and Le Mans Ultimate on PC is $12.99 per month or $129 per year.
