Not really, there are no bikers or unexpected tourist coaches appearing in front as you come out of a blind corner...

ok the speeds are too high - maybe this is what stephan belofs lap looked like ?!?! (grip looks set too high) but yes it looks very realistic to me in terms of corners and impressively gives a good idea of elevation changes - even dark shadowed patches of track look good - im really impressed - now just add rain on one part of the track and a beached audi TT at aremburg ahem

Apart from what has already been mentioned, Paul, this video doesn't give much of a sense of the unevenness of the surface. That is not too significant at a relaxed cruising speed, but it becomes a serious matter when you're in, say, the 8 1/2 min area and below. You may recall that recent stunt with Clarkson on TG; even at his snail-like 10 min pace his car was bouncing around quite a bit.
In the real world, a sub-6 lap, especially in a high-downforce car with stiff springs, would be tossing you around like you were riding a pogo stick.
