Brands Hatch may be Grade 2 and the ACO have had to swallow their pride on sticking to Grade 1 Tilkedromes (Shanghai being replaced by Kyalami, which is currently Grade 2, and Sebring being Grade 2), but I do see Brands as having some of the issues that Sonoma started having in the mid-2000s with the ALMS and even Grand Am.
Both are classic layouts and fun to drive either in a game or probably in real life for those who love track days. But at the same time, neither seems insanely well suited for multi-class racing.
Both Brands and Sonoma have tons of choke points and relatively few clean overtaking spots. Sadly, fun to drive layouts don't always promote the best racing, and nowadays there seems to be a need for balance between those two extremes.
