Just played the first hour with the new update and my first impression of the new track and cars is kind of meh. The Mercedes looks really good and I guess it will be my favourite car of this update. But now I will come to the things that disappoints me in the new update:

1; No new series for existing cars besides the one with the Ford Mustang and the Aston Martin GT3, while great cars like the FXXK and the Regera keep taking rust in my garage because the exclusive series are boring with all the same cars and they have only one true series against other cars. A big disappointment again and I don't know why they keep making those great cars and put them in the game but you can't really use them anywhere. What's the point of this.

2; The second point is about the new cars which are in my opinion not that great. The Mercedes is surely a great car and can be fun to drive but the new Formula E cars have such a low top speed and are overall so bad that I really don't feel like spending several 100 to 1000 gold on them. But this is only my view on those cars and I really don't like cars that slow in a racing game.

3; The last point is about the new Circuit we got. Yes, the new circuit... I always wanted a new track in this game since a long time but what I got now is just... not what I had in mind. I hoped for one of the great Formula 1 Grand Prix circuits like Montreal or Monte Carlo or Abu Dhabi, those would have been all great. The track we got (tested with a fully upgraded 918 RSR) is a full hearted Formula E track. That means, many sharp corners, a thin track layout with zero space to overtake without crashing those stupid bots because we start always from the last place and there are also no topspeed sectors or fast turns. It feels like the short Porsche Test Track... and I actually hate this one. It's just aggravating to have a fast car but you cannot drive it fast on those tracks and this get me absolutely zero fun to drive. The track and envrionment looks great and is really well done in terms of looks. The grip on this track is also special. It feels a lot grippier than the other tracks.

So those were my three points on the new update. It is clearly not what I expected but maybe it comes along with some funny glitches like the last update so that I don't have to do the Gauntlet, fingers crossed (I hate those Grindlets). I will try to win the new cars with minimum gold and  to stock up my gold in this update as I really don't care about 100% completion since the supercar update.
