    Hello,
    hearing the voices of on-site commentators when being in the pits is a nice feautre and adds to the overall atmosphere, but there are some things that bug me. I hide them in a spoiler as it's something you might not be able to ignore afterwards. :confused:
    It seems like Oschersleben 2024 uses commentary of Peter Reichert at the Hockenheimring (Nürburgring: Burghard Bechtel at the Hockenheimring if I remember correctly). In general, it's not too bad that the commentary doesn't fit what's actually happening (How could it? Impossible...), but when you're in practice, standing in the pits of Oschersleben and you hear someone say 'Now it's time for Qualifying at the Hockenheimring', that's a weird feeling. :D
    During practice of a daily race at the Red Bull Ring, I suddenly heard the German National Anthem and was confused as well. Sure, it could be the podium ceremony, but for the pride of all Austrians - give them their anthem on a track that is theirs. :D

    Dont know how to add spoilers so read at your own risk :D

    Not related to the commentators but the general track side sounds that you hear when in the pits (e.g. while checking lap times or working on setup). I also find it a bit weird when im doing a solo session in say the frx90 and suddenly hear something like an r8 or a porsche flying down the pitstraight when in reality there arent any other cars on track
