So how many tracks are contracted now? Feel like we're barrelling towards the 25 mark in future years.

Won't be until at least 2026 if that's going to be the case. The current Concorde Agreement signed last year which runs to 2025 has a maximum round number of 24.

Virtual onboard of the new Abu Dhabi layout, seems like a huge improvement over the old track.

Like Karun said, looks good and should be fun for the drivers. But still not sure where they could overtake. We will see but DRS2 seems not possible anymore without a long enough braking zone into the banked corner. Didn't work out for Zandvoort and not sure it will be different here without massive pace advantage. Still not sure if the main problem was the chicane between the two DRS-straights which is still unchainched.
But I like the changes from a gamer point perspective and will love to try them in AC or Forza 8 in the future. Especially the last sektor seems way more flowing which was awful in the past with all the 90° turns.
