Couple of things that I feel would be great for career in either 2017 (most likely too late for this year's game if not already implemented) or 2018:
Circuit exploration:- On race day, I would love to be able to drive out of the pits, drive around the track to see how it is and then back through the pits again for another lap then when I feel I'm ready, drive to the grid for my mechanics to wheel me to my grid slot. This would help to identify how the track is before racing (rain the following day/current track temps impact grip so would be nice to check on conditions before the race starts) and also if I did qualy the saved the game, come back to it a few days/weeks later, rather than doing a time trial lap to get used to the circuit again, I could jump straight into career knowing I'll have a few laps before the race anyways.
Practice starts:- Option before a race (if the above is implemented) or in practice sessions to be able to do practice starts.
Super license:- Would be cool to 1) have to earn this before getting a team and 2) be able to get points on it it causing a crash or such like event. Means therefore I could get a race ban and harm my reputation so bigger teams may not want me if I'm a Pastor Maldonado or Kyvat. Of course you can repair your rep with clean races in future for the big teams to then want you again.
