Pro drivers are competing with gamers after F1 and Nascar canceled races

Camera work is a really underappreciated feature. Most sims do not have realistic looking cameras and this makes them look worse on TV. Usually camera is centered on a single car while in real life camera operator usually focuses on a group of cars (for example if there are two cars fighting, he is aiming between the cars, not at one of the cars).

This is a feature I'd love for sims to better develop. It shouldn't be massively difficult to do so hopefully we get it sooner than later.

Depends if we want an automatic solution, that is filming and directing automatically, or if we want to have the facilities for people to come in and control the cameras individually (and direct the resulting feed). The labour intensive approach is probably simple enough in terms of tech.
