3DAvenua: For the first time, you're adding tracks and races outside of the actual Moto GP championship. Why was this decision made and do you think it will affect the authenticity of the game in a Moto GP fans eyes?

Climax: Street racing is cool. We already had 16 real world tracks, and to be honest once you have that many, there isn't a whole lot of point just adding more of the same. The new tracks are extremely different in feel, adding some fresh variety to the gameplay.

I don't think this will affect the authenticity at all. If people want to experience a simulation of the real GP season, they can still play through GP mode exactly as before. But now they have the option to take this same great physics out into some different types of environment as well.
