I'm pretty sure the 7th gear will be for fuel economy. Cruising at 7th gear will be more ideal and relaxing since the car is running at lower RPM's which in turn reduces engine noise. Downshifting to 5th or 6th would be thrilling IMHO. You could even go to 4th if you want...

Your right hand will be quite busy on track days for sure. Imagine taking a corner after a long straight on 7th gear... We just have to wait and see.
