Would be cool, but only if it's possible to disable/skip. 2016/17 are full of tiny little scenes that wore very thin even in 1 season. If I have to FPS style walk to the agents office, followed by a stop at the RD guy and then go to yet another place just to start my race/practice session I doubt I'd make it to Monaco before tossing the game aside.
If they're optional and something you just do once in a while because you feel like taking in the track side atmosphere at your favorite tracks then heck yeah this will be great.
