No, there are two very minor differences that are the result of your chosen character. 1) Some people will recognize your race and add their opinion on it (from experience, Skyrim natives don't seem to like Dunmer very much
) and 2) each race gets their own little special skill.
Certain races also get a headstart on certain skills too, but those can easily be compensated by just overusing the skills you want to boost. It's definitely not like Oblivion where your chosen race/astro sign kind of locks you into a certain playstyle
