unfortunately, and for reasons unknown to man, no one has done a single video of the replay mode since e3.
You can see a few vids where Dan or Che leave the AI drive for them and the camera switches to 'replay camera angles', Just like in FM2 when hiring an AI driver, though, it's a little diff. from replays, in that there's no motion blur and no extra AA (still 30fps though). You can still tell camera angles have improved a lot, however, although there's still a few 'floating cameras and chase cameras' which i personally hate.
You can see a short, proper, replay clip during that gamevideos interview, iirc.
Then again, if replay editor gives me a decent amount of freedom concerning camera angles, i won't really care, but we don't know how that works yet.
Being able to place my own cameras, tell them what the point of interest is, changing zoom and focus with a keyframe system would be just too awesome for me to bear.

You can see the replays on some of the Gametrailers Vids when Dan is doing his E3 presentation, glad to see they are much improved.

Are these videos taken from the same build we saw at E3? It seems to hitch in the same spots, leading me to suspect it's the same build.
Also, in the most recent gamersyde vid, you can tell they hit 60fps in cockpit sometimes, so they're definitely trying to get it to 60fps as well.
I'm pretty sure they'll hit it. Dan has said over and over that "sim racing games HAVE to run at 60fps otherwise it might as well be a slideshow". I don't think you can say that sort of thing if you have even the slightest suspicion your most notable view will ship at 30.

Screen on the left appears to be just a windows background. It's got a "screen locked" input box on it.

Someone over at consolewars claims this is a pic from PGR4 Renault Alpina Challenge.
I played PGR4 a lot but I honestly can't remember that challenge.
Why would Turn 10 leave something like that visible when all other monitors are turned off?

The replay camera angles are improved over FM2's, so the dreaded "rotate around the car while showing absolutely nothing" camera now looks even more out of place.
It's also nice to see the bumps all the way down the Mulsanne straight. Hopefully that means the Nurburgring too will be as unforgiving on suspensions as it is in reality. I remember it being rather smooth in FM2.
Can't wait for the 60 fps gameplay footage. Gamersyde's coverage really does put everyone else to shame.

I really think they just dont get it.
Hopefully there are some options to have replays only use track side cameras. It looks like a majority of the replay will use them by default but I sure would be happy if I could eliminate the floating cams all together.

I agree with you; hopefully it will be possible in the replay editor. Or they could just simply get rid of all the floating cams and save us the trouble.
Also, all of the camera angles currently seem to focus on an individual car. It would be nice to have another set that instead lingered longer between angles, covering the entire race.
