I am pretty sure that the design decision about speeds have a lot to do with the length of time it takes to run a race. Plenty of people complain, likely on surveys as well and in game testing and focus groups that races or events take too long, and so you get lap times that are 40 to 50 seconds faster than the records on tracks like Le Mans and Panorama.

It has unfortunately affected some of their choices for series as well. Fewer GP tracks chosen with fewer laps and less fame. Just look at the choices in the Ferrari F14 T (Exclusive Series). Also goals the shorter LTS format features races that are rarely over 2 laps, and in some cars, like the Lotus Type 125 I'd like to have gotten some 5 lap races at Silverstone GP, etc.
