compat_comments: Intro's / Cutscenes:
-----------------------
Fmv's are fine

Sound:
-----------------------
Fine from what I played but could have audio crackle.

Performance / Gameplay:
-----------------------
Performance fluctuates between 30-50fps some 60 fps during replays and intro to race. drops to 30 fps when using the rear-view mirror and during physics interactions. Vulkan runs about  2x worse, hovering 30's and dropping to 20's using the rear-view mirror.

Graphics:
-----------------------
Couldn't see any issues from what I played.

Seems playable as I think bottleneck cpu performance so should be similar to hardware but needs testing. Crashing issues when enabling the rear-view mirror has been fixed.

Note:Only play one full race on quick play.
