I think you'll find this is the problem with a single licence holder - they have no incentive to improve things just because a minority* of sim-oriented racers complain. In the past, there was a decent spectrum of games from hardcore (Geoff Crammond series) to not-so-hardcore (EA) to basically arcade.
* Let's be honest, probably 90% of the people who buy this game will be all "ZOMG IT ARE SO REAL BECAUSE IT LOOKS GOOD!!11!"
