    If only they could've had COTA done now... :whistle:

    I'm going there next month for GR Cup work, I guess I'll have to get my "practice/reconnaissance" laps in another sim.

    Either way, I'm willing to wait given the incredible work the track team did on the '71 Nürburgring. Been exploring the off track areas and have been amazed with how much the little details add to the experience. The new formula juniors will be a perfect fit for the Südschleife. :rolleyes:

    I’m still thinking they must be saving the Aston Martins for when they release Le Mans, presumably some kind of Endurance pack and then release the already previewed Aston at the same time, like they did with Nissan and 1.4

    I contradict your words. I also play with a gamepad and AMS2 is pretty good. I hope the physics changes won't alter the gameplay and enjoyment I'm having.

    Actually, speaking of cars in the files, there is some new ones...

    False alarm, may have been my mods...

    I don't know if it's a good calculation by Reiza to bring tracks present in PC2. As we know, the tracks are moddable and there are already Brno and Sugo. So "bringing" Barcelona and COTA to AMS2 is possible. It would be better to aim for circuits that are less visible in games: street circuits that are really missing in AMS2 like Detroit 2023 (with its historical version), Historical Long Beach, Monaco 1968, Toronto, Anhembi, other F1 circuits like Mexico City , Zandvoort, Yas Marina, Bahrain and little known but original circuits like Rafaela, Potrero de los Funes...

    Awesome news! Will we only see the modern Barcelona-Catalunya Circuit or also some historic layouts like the early 90s one for example, just as we have it for the other Premium Tracks?

    The Formula Junior has my attention :eek: Historic feeder series are a niche I'm maybe a little too into
    The F-USA seems pretty good too, not sure on the looks of it personally but as long as it drives like the real thing I'll be happy

    I personally find that Monaco 1968-1972 is much more interesting than Monaco 1988. With the new Junior formula, it would certainly be a great combo. Monaco 1988 is not so different from the current layout.
    You didn't see Charade ?

    I see your point but honestly these ported tracks don't really work too well especially in terms of track limits or in the case of Brno it all starts when you just want to leave your garage...

    but those tracks are only recently become moddable. and Reiza can not say "just rip content from other games" without getting into problems, besides doing the ports also involves alot of work by the modders i guess.

    Barcelona always the most boring race in the f1 calendar, but it always made sense to come to the game cause its in all games and its a important circuit in motorsports. in the future, Mexico City is a no brainer, cause of its historical racing history and modern racing.

    I would all make so much sense now to have Le Mans and modern Prototypes as the Crown jewel for the 1.5 Release.

    With all these revisions to tires and suspension, can we hope for the V8 Supercars to finally stop oscillating on the straights in 1.5?

    Back when AMS2 released it was one of my favourite cars, but it has sadly become unusable to me because of that.

    Gosh, Renato, you really just released a Gesamtstrecke of a Development Update, didn’t you? Very positive news along many different fronts … thanks to everyone at Reiza for all of their efforts to further refine and improve AMS2.

    Besides the Formula Inter and Stock Car 2023, which other cars in AMS2 have the most current iteration of physics modeling? Were there any vehicles released before those two (e.g., Brazilian Racing Legends F1 cars) that might also share the same advancements?
