Previous games have always reflected the driver updates during the season and have remained fixed.

Yup. No different to majority off other sports games that reflect actual sport seasons

@SteveJacksonRemoving Nyck de Vries was probably the worst decision, as for one, he drove the first race in Bahrain, for two, he's still available to play as in F1 Replay, and for three, his section in the compendium is still there.
Daniel isn't even featured in the compendium as he only rejoined the grid mid-season.
Also, since the roster this year is not much different aside from Daniel Ricciardo being at AlphaTauri, it would make more sense to bring Nyck de Vries back to F1 23, add Daniel Ricciardo as a free agent in Career Mode and release the 2024 season as paid DLC. Then it would actually make sense to have Daniel in the grid as he's part of it from the beginning. Other development studios have done this as well in the past, like 704 Games with NASCAR Heat 5.
I should also mention that swapping two drivers from different teams like in F1 2019 is fair game, but removing a driver means removing a piece of the real life season, making it unrealistic from start to end.
Without wanting to labour the point, it’s a game, the behaviour is consistent with previous titles and your method is unnecessarily complex.
Say it quietly, but the majority of players will find this acceptable and are not really bothered. They wanted DR3 back in the game.
He never left.
