For the perfectionist, of course, it should be noted that
although these tracks are indeed available on the net (I favour
alphaf1.com myself  ^_^  ) you will still be restricted to a
16-race season and must drop an existing track to add the 2 new
ones.

That's not good if you want to run a full 17-race season...

Who will probably buy the add-on...

   That is why the calculator was invented.  Run your season.  Start a new
one with the new tracks...add the results....

Am I the only one who loathes Monaco? There's no real interest
for me on a circuit where overtaking is to all intents and
purposes impossible.

Don't bother to flame me over this - I know I'm 'out of step'
with most F1 aficionados...

excellent :)

apparently either you can't overtake or you get stuck on the grid with
one of those...

  Well THATS your problem then...here in the States....our SCHOOL BUSSES are
painted yellow.  Lots of low-end grunt, but the braking is mushy.

Oddly enough First Plc (who operate quite a lot of school bus
contracts in the US) are about to start an experiment using
US-style school buses over here in the UK...
