Azelfland: I think I'd rather take the AIE's handling improvements for an entire R&D over traffic being disabled for a single test!😉 Of course this is my first time through the AIE R&D so we'd have to ask someone who's played both R&Ds to get their perspective on the matter!

The only R&D revival that I can think of that was made a lot more frustrating overall because of a change to a single test was the Hommage R&D revival. For some reason GL thought it necessary to make the final AI's time in the revival quicker than in the original R&D.

I think the one R&D that will be noticeably more challenging as a direct result of Physics 2.0 is the Audi R8 SE's. I think GL's recent handling "improvements" for it were actually a major downgrade. Conversely, Physics 2.0 was a significant upgrade for the 2018 X2. So I can only imagine that its Championship will be a lot easier during the second run. (Unless, of course, GL decides to tweak some of the qualifier times à la the Hommage R&D.)

Personally, I think it only fair that everyone experience these events in exactly the same way -- for better or for worse. Just my 2¢.
