The new Forza Motorsport should have an option to choose between normal Drivatars (based on other players) and professional drivatars (based on real racers or eSports drivers) who avoid contact and have sense of sportsmanship rather than ramming at you just to pass through in the first corner no matter what.
Image rights for real racers could be a stumbling block. Idk about the eracers but could see the top folks being the same
why would anyone want to play with crazy normal drivatars? AI should always be professional from which beginners can learn driving etiquette and not become kamikaze rammers. It should not be even an option.

cool idea, but i think there’s a better way to work it.
instead of drivatars, they should just bring normal AI back, but give us the functionality to create custom AI that we can save and share.
give us a list of sliders to adjust different factors, pace, aggression, passing ability, defensive ability, corner exit and entry, starts etc.
let us name the drivers however we like, use them as co-drivers for endurance races, and especially let us fill up a private lobby with them to race against us and our friends.
let us choose a drivers suit for them, let us give them cars from our garage to use, there’s so much that can be done with this feature.
this will let people recreate famous eras and moments in racing, or rewrite history in their own way. it lets people create their own fantasy racing series, and it allows people and their friends to get in on that action through the usage of private lobbies.
there are no downsides, please turn 10.

It’s easier to make the sliders than to make the AI do what the sliders want it to do. It would be too ambitious. Let’s hope for it. Currently iRacing has to best AI drivers followed by Raceroom and rF2 (no idea about GT7 as I dont own a PS).
I dont know if FM will get driver swap feature, that would be delightful but I dont have so much hopes.
