Hi Richard,
I think the new EA F1 sim is out towards the end of June. Improved
multiplayer code and a little physics tweaking is involved as far as I know.
If the multiplayer has improved enough I think it'll be worth buying,
although I know there are alot of people who dont like the EA F1 series, so
it might not be your cup of tea.
All the best,
Ash

Netkar isnt going to go retail. Ever.

F1 Challenge 99-02 is the PC title, F1 Career Challenge is the console
title. I'm guessing the PC title was changed (originally I saw both
listed as Career Challenge) because it lacks a career mode.
Why do consoles always get management sims tacked onto their racers?
Doesn't it seem like something that would be better suited for the PC
crowd?

Set all the axis to 50%.
Set all the deadzones to 0%.
Turn off all the digital assists (speed-sensitive steering, etc).
The above is the same as setting a papy sim to 100% linear.

Well to each their own. Some people a too scared to race online in case
they get shouted at! I guess career mode is a blessing people who like
to play with themselves. :)
Of course you might want to turn on force feedback (and perhaps have to set
it to ?negative?) but even so, it's as easy as any other game out there....
