This is normal. It isn't the default boot entry so you have to select it and hit enter.

Grub2 bootmenue, see above. Select Windows, wait for 2 secs, decided not to boot Windows, but Fedora Workstation, select, within theese 2 secs F23 Workstation. No boot, without hitting enter. In German "das könnte ein Streit um des Kaisers Bart sein", but anyway I would like to have this clarified.

Nota bene: "Streit um des Kaisers Bart" means dispute about nothing.
