It's Past Time Destiny 2 Brought Back Sparrow Racing

gamerant.com:

Destiny 2 has come a long way since it was first released in August 2017. What was once a shell of the original Destiny has since transformed into a multiplayer online looter-shooter worthy of the genre. New locales, game systems, an ever-evolving story, and the shift to a free-to-play model are just a few things Bungie has implemented to keep Destiny 2 fresh for new and current players alike. Yet despite all its additions, Destiny 2 never once brought back a much-loved game mode from the original: the Sparrow Racing League

In Sparrow Racing, Guardians of all ages can partake in races using their single-seat vehicles. The Sparrow Racing League was a limited-time event in Destiny before being added as a permanent game mode in a later update. Those with the need for speed could race against complete strangers in public matches or with friends in private ones. The mode has its fair share of fans, so one wonders why it hasn't been added to the sequel yet.

It's not like Destiny 2 doesn't have Sparrows. Each player can acquire or purchase a Sparrow of their own and customize it to their liking. Apart from looking cool, Sparrows provide players with a means to traverse the many worlds of Destiny 2. The vehicles are mostly utilized in free-roam mode, but there are times when Sparrows are used in activities such as Vanguard strikes and dungeons.

Sparrows don't play that big a part in the overall gameplay loop, but they are fun to ride. Players can boost their Sparrows to give them an extra bit of speed and can fiddle with the controls to make some tight turns. Some Sparrows even reload Destiny 2 players' weapons and can be used to perform tricks while in midair.
