If your ride height is low enough you definitely will! (at least I see them)

as i've seen so far, sparks are only visible when driving the car and when using flashback but not in replays after the race :(

I guess this has more to do with saving graphical resources on consoles, or are we talking about PC here?

I could be wrong though, since I played the beta on PS4 and I could swear you were able to see sparks in the replays, but maybe I'm misremembering things.

There were no sparks in the replay of the beta, either...

Nevertheless, they are back now while driving, but a little bit to less IMHO.
Try Spa with full tanks through Eau Rouge, the effect isn't strong enough.

In terms of the replay... as the PS4 only have to render and not to calculate (e.g. AI, tire wear etc.) it should be more than possible to show sparks, too. All other effects like dust and especially rain and spray is also there...

Yes, sparks are there in Spa, thanks.

No sparks on replays for pc users then? What about the ones on  the 2015 one, they were alot more visible during the races than in 2016, but still not visible in the replays. Was this a problem with the game and not a problem you could fix.
