Not a flying game anymore!

I love the real life Redbull Airrace. I watch every event and have been to a few. It is an awesome event and everyone should try and see one. As for the game, the graphics are good and the courses are similar to actual race events, but that is where any real life resemblance ends. Unfortunately this game has been reduced it to what could be any silly iOS race game. The plane might as well be a skier, a car, a motorcycle or anything. Aviation is unique and the people that like flying games like flying. Look at the gross for flight simulator games, always at the top of the charts. So, for flying game fans... there is no loss of lift or speed in a bank, there is almost zero penalty in speed for extreme control input and steep turns, power is a digital button (on or off), so forget even the fun feeling of pushing up the throttle. Immeleman turns are automatic. There is no benefit to good pilotage. Basically everything cool about flying a plane, let alone a redbull racer is gone. So the main sections of the race that make or break the pilot in a real race are a non factor in this game. It is now just another stupid swipe and push race game. Why why why??? If they were to add advanced mode so it is actually like flying a plane, I will come back, but until then..how disappointing.
