I just found myself being completely uninterested in the gameplay loop, until something big changes I'll probably just be sticking to games I enjoy playing. There's just so many things that irk me about the game; a shame since I really enjoy the driving this time around.
I could be very wrong because I'm not a developer, but it seems like FM had a slightly troubled development cycle.

One thing I've learned as a newbie PC player is that the games that perform well and make your rig shine get the most praise. FH5 does this and is often used as a graphics/performance benchmark, but big games that are somewhat hyped ("Built from the ground up" hem, hem) and make your rig look bad will get blasted. Now, a great game that releases on PC with poor performance, say Horizon: Zero Dawn, can recover in perception and ratings over time when things improve, but the problem with FM is that right now, while it may be a superior simulation to its forebears, IMO is just not a great game, and just adding tracks/cars will not make it better.

Worth remembering that there was remnants of code for Grindelwald in GT5 IIRC. Legacy code makes its way into almost every subsequent title, even if there was never any intention for that code to be used.

The thing that annoys me most about this game is that you can't see the power in HP and weight in KG at the same time. It's either KW and KG or HP and LBS. It's a small thing but having such option would be nice.

I was doing a few MX5 Cup races yesterday and had some pretty good fights, but when it came time for EagleRock Speedway, I ended up being alone on the grid as everyone ended up quitting during practice... I guess that track is not very much liked by anyone, and I can understand why, especially the "road course" layout that just feels uninspired. It's one of the downsides of having fewer tracks than before, but then again it means Laguna Seca actually shows up once in a while, which it barely did in FM7.

Just popped onto the DLC list and looks like T10 have re-organized the car list somewhat?
Now shows the following have been updated 3 days ago
Some of these we already knew about last week, but some of them have changed, and I wonder if they are deliberately obscuring the names now only providing the car number so these aren't leaked in the future.
Any guesses as to some of these mystery cars?
I'm personally hoping the #17 is Scotty Mclaughlin's V8 Mustang, but unlikely as the existing Ford Falcon has a very similar livery.

Its most likely the same cars that was on the list before just not there anymore. So cars like the 488 GTE, the valkyrie, the Senna Gtr, Lexus RCF GT3, Lotus type 98T, etc... those would fill in those empty slots. I doubt those are any other cars. One thing to note is that theres 27 car slots listed, 12 with no car listed and 15 that have been added to the game already or coming in Dec. Which leaves 3 more to finish off the car pass and those could be anyones guess...

I thought that initially, but there isn't much overlap between the car numbers that were previously in the list and the updated list. Unless of course the numbers listed on the list now don't mean anything and they are just an itemized list rather than the official number of the car on the livery.

Glad the Huayra R is coming back, FM is severely lacking in the Pagani department

It would be somewhat similar to the Nordschleife but with more elevation and less long straights. Won't see much rotation in serious multiplayer lobbies, but will hugely please parts of the community, especially people wanting to drift and those who like driving such roads (but aren't happy with Horizon physics).
I did plenty of AI races on the Japanese mountain tracks in FM3/FM4, and it worked just fine against the AI. No worries here.

The Ring is a great racetrack, trying to recreate that in a much more mountainous setting just will not work
