So driveclub is Sony's biggest commercial fail of the PS4 on that we can all agree with.
Evolution might have optimized the basics and by far most important aspects of a racegame but it doesn't appeal to the masses who want the 200 cars and don't care if the only spec that matters in which class the car belongs to act in a certain way and whether it is FWD or RWD. Neither do the masses care if the lighting looks realistic and if each detail is implanted in a car.

Dear Sony you just waste a shitload of money since many people won't even try out the PS+ version with these reviews. Which is a shame since it is basically almost the perfect spiritual successor of PGR, and the things that matter are very well executed

I haven't seen sales figures yet so how can anyone agree it's a commercial failure?

Well a game with not many appealing reviews and not to much preorders, since many cancelled their pre order after the delay was anounced, are not going to bode to well for the game's legs. In it's final week only 2k preorders where added so that doesn't bode to well either.

And I said biggest commercial fail on PS4 not all playstations, which isn't that hard to acomplish since Driveclub has to sell over 1.5 million units. Which without legs would be nearly impossible, look how long infamous strugles to get to two million, which is a popular franchise. Seeing a new critical mediocre franchise do better is not likely, a bit like knack but without the Launch hype.
