There are several races, mainly speed snaps, speed records and drag races, that are not possible to pass without a higher PR rating. I've been trying to do a minimum upgrade strategy to open up all the career and bonus series as cheaply as possible and I can confirm there are several races that can't be won if you don't have a powerful enough car that don't have defined PR ratings.

You can carry on arguing that this isn't the case and that this is new but it isn't. You just haven't noticed these races because you've upgraded the car before getting to them. FM have not changed anything. Uhm... Show us the data.

Jaguar C-X75 R3 Spec World Series - 91% - Jaguar C-X75 R3 Spec PR90.5 Gold trophies in all races from Tiers 15-18 where cup races are Pr91 to PR93.
 * Group C: Porsche vs Jaguar - 91% - Best Car Porsche 962C PR 85.4 Except for Cup races Gold Trophy in all events from Tier 18 (PR86) to Tier 22 (PR89). That is 10 gold trophies above PR.
 * Concept vs Production - 98% - Best Car Mazda Furai PR 82.7 All but last cup race (PR85) Gold Trophies

 * Ferrari Heritage Hustle - 78% - Ferrari 375 F1 PR 64.0 Tiers 12-14 (PR65-68) 4 Gold Trophies and one 5th place in a Speed Snap in Tier 14. Tiers 15-16 still locked.
