I think Turn 10 have done a great job in all releases delivered. But there are two things that I would like you take a look.
The kerbs of Nordschleife circuit are not real. Whe the car passes in the kerbs, specially becouse Nordschleife’s kerbs are hight, the behavior is not real.
Other point is the modeled track itself has som differences from the real. See this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=39cMDUvGA4c

So this is not just Nordschleife, but in this case the video compares this. Could you update Nordschleife to make it more accurate? One thing in particular is curbing. FM23 has really flat curbs where they’re very steep for example.
Makes such a difference to the feel of the track! A game like Assetto Corsa Competizione shows this off well, with GT3 cars being really unsettled by them with their stiff suspension.
You can see that among other inaccuracies FM23 has curbing where there is none, when even GT7 gets this correct.
Though of course other sections GT7 gets wrong (or is out of date) and FM23 gets correct.
On the carousel the line is too far from the inside and there’s some bit of fence on the outside in real life which looks different on FM23.
It adds festival bits on parts where there of course aren’t in real life. Seems like a small complaint, but it changes the feel of the track from what it’s really like. If there are towering trees imposing upon a section, that changes the feel if FM23 doesn’t have that accurate, for example.
We could do with a sweep of every real track to ensure both the type of trees and tree lines are accurate, as some tracks really fall behind in this area.
Assetto Corsa Competizione appears to be the gold standard with regards to accuracy. If FM23 could have that standard consistently with all tracks it would be fantastic.

Maybe in the next millennium we’ll get new track models. At least the Nordschleife isn’t taken straight from Motorsport 1…

Yep, it’s the same laser scan they have used for FM5, they have to rescan all recycled tracks otherwise it’s false advertisement with this “build from the ground up”.

I’ll be honest I don’t think it’s particularly worth their time. Adding new tracks, and cars and fixing bugs is worth more.
