The Premium cars offer "Interior View 1" and "Interior View 2" in replays.
For interior views, I always imagine that the point of view would be one where I would logically place a Go Pro camera.
Too often, one of those views provides a view of the interior as might be seen by a small dog on the passenger seat. The road ahead can not be seen, and the view of the cockpit and dashboard is not one I can relate to.
Here are examples of what I mean. We can see the sky and the upper stories of passing buildings, but no track context or relativity to other cars.
This is exactly NOT where I would place a Go Pro camera, would you?
So my feature suggestion is to provide a way of eliminating the "Chihuahua's-Eye View" either by replacing it with a better angle, or allow us to move the camera.
Sometimes, the interior view is a whole lot more useful as in these photos below, where you have context of the track and a good view of the dash. This is a preferable point of view. These are locations where I might feasibly place a GoPro, although I might do a little better job of alignment.
