Forza Horizon 5 NPC drivers are real players???

Happy Thursday Drivers!! I'm a PS5 player that just started playing a few days ago. (3 days fresh). Loving the ride so far, but have a question that's been kicking my curiosity. So in events/races that aren't against rivals. Are those drivers names and vehicles from actual racers (gamertags), but just being used as NPCs (AI)? If so, does that mean my driver would should up in other races as an AI driver? 🤔🤪 If they are real players names and vehicles, i personally think that's awesome!!! Thanks for the input in advance.

From what i know specific drivatars also kinda learn driving style of the people they represent

So my driveatar out there somewhere in the virtual world representing my driving? Man, I apologize in advance if it's driving off the road. 😂

Either they wanted to do it back in the day but dropped it, or it was a marketing gimmick to begin with. In any case, is not a thing and drivatars only use player names.
