EA code monkeys should be ashamed
of what they have done.If I can play N4 at 1600x1200 with
all the details and never drop below 40fps at Martinsville
then something is wrong.
Aside from the poor graphics implantation the rest
of the game seemed quite nice. The best sound yet in a modern
era F1 sim, and  you can actually turn the blasted music off.

Take the graphics from F1RC, the replay mode from papy,
the sound and physics model from F1 2001,the rain fx from
GP3,then you would have game.

The graphics are poor ? Really ?

Tim, read the f1 2001 posts from the last couple of days, it mentions
how to solve your fps problems. With all detail settings on high f1
2001 looks very good. In a way even better than f1rc, less cartoony,
more realistic.
