So they have made the penalty model that in the community'S opinion is the worst of all possibilities the mandatory one. First really bad choice of theirs.
Alt-Tab out the game, set it to -1 and go back in. Worked for me but I didn't restart the game. I agree it's a bad choice on their part.

It's perfect for the drift circuit, I know you're not a drifting fan (and not being Japanese or a Saudi nor am I) but it's what's expected in a modern car game.

I haven't seen all the other cars yet, just the new ones and the Lotus (no change) and black E30/92s.

It suckered me in. I tried it and then got hooked on the 'I could obviously do a better score than that'. And I did. The only downside is the lack of definition of the track - there's turns everywhere but no set route.

Awesome simulation. Best driving feeling and car immersion there is.
Spa and Nordshleife are the two everyone wants (and I want Circuit de la Sarthe (le Mans)). If they are making people (who don't buy now) buy Spa then Nordshleife will definitely be DLC and not bundled with original game, but a DLC well worth it I think.
