Yet I am sure that the conspiracy theorists here will cry fake news and continue to perpetuate them.

The interesting thing about conspiracy theories and "fake news" is that facts can easily blow them away. I'm curious what they mean by the "full track is not in the game files. The files there with that name are only placeholders."

You can call me a conspiracy theorist and claim this is "fake news" all you like but I submit exhibit A, a rendered image produced from the base brands hatch files in game. The mesh for the full track is there and all the associated texture files appear to be present. I never did sort out the texture rendering so the colours and transparency are all wrong but the files are definitely there and valid.

Whilst I'm sure there is data that is missing for things like bots and off track areas, the track is definitely present.

The textures likely are not enough to model the physics of the track surface it self... The tracks are likely more than skin deep.

It is interesting that they put that much effort into textures that will almost never be seen... They probably need to do it to prevent gaps in aerial camera views.

But in this case, I am going to take the Firemonkey Employee's word over yours.
