What I don't get is that they put the development and release of Nords in advance of a Le Mans circuit.

Now I'll probably get inundated with "there already is a Le Mans track".

I believe there are problems with an official Le Mans circuit in AC to do with licensing (very expensive) and access for laser scanning. Maybe sometime in future but for now we have this:

I think Nords is a very important marketing option for Kunos in the same way it has become a world renowned benchmark track for headline laptimes by all the sports car manufacturers. 

Car set wise, they are a bunch of pretty cool race cars. Gtr I assume fits the Gt3 class and the merc DTM can fight the e30 BMW DTM. C7r is GT2? So already 2 other cars to fight in AC. Alfas may be more standalone for now.  Undecided

Take your point MJ. But I (and I'm hopeless with the various classes of modern'ish cars) would expect drivers, e.g. us who pay the money, of GTR2 type cars to be more thrilled with Le Mans than with Nords. The only other track I associate with long distance driving is Spa (oh and perhaps Monza), which is already available. Rather than more cars I would want to see some more world famous circuits, and not Italian tracks either. I would expect to see some USA circuits soon like Sebring etc.
