55% vs 97%: The Elantra Broke GT7 Sport Mode

Yes, there's always been a meta in Gr.4. But never by this much. 📊 "The Elantra is just the new Citroën." Is it, though? I pulled the top 10,000 for every Gr.4 Daily Race since May, and the numbers tell a very different story. 🔹 Before update 1.71, the most-used car averaged 55.8% of the top 10,000 🔹 After 1.71, the Elantra N TC averaged 97.6% 🔹 Cars in use dropped from ~33 per week to ~15 🔹 At Bathurst, 99.3% of the top 10,000 were in one car So what happened? Is it a sponsor thing? Is this week's MR-only Daily B a coincidence? And will Polyphony fix it before the Elantra comes back? Watch to the end, and let me know in the comments: do you want the Elantra back as it is, or with a BoP fix? 👇 ⏱️ Chapters 0:00 "It's just the new Citroën" 0:37 What a normal meta looks like 1:45 Not by this much 2:30 Same track, different game 3:10 Why MR only? 4:10 Is it a sponsor thing? 5:10 What happens next 5:30 Meta, yes.
