F1GP2 Realism options...

Since F1GP2 is going to provide realism options, as of today one could
wonder if F1GP2 is programmed with the possibility of motors giving up on
the parade lap?

Probably NOT!

Maybe GC/MicroProse can add that feature and we all could wait another
year or so?

Looking forward to the British GP!

A bit unlikely - they'd need to put in a parade lap first of all...

You looking to play at being Schumi...? ;)

Cheers!

David Coultard, you mean...oh, wait, you want mechanical failures?

David "Flymo" Coulthard? That's a fellow Scot you're attacking there,
watch it ;)

Apart from David, has anyone else had suffered "pace lap embarrasment"?
I know Coulthard went one better and had "pit lane embarrasment" too,
but I can't think of any other pace lap nightmares (David did a "going
round to join the grid" nightmare too as far as I recall!).

The ultimate must be when Prost managed to spin off.....

(OK, he was driving through a river at the time, but the rest of the
field managed to ford it <g>)

I remember Alain Prost spunning in the pace lap at San Marino.
I think it was 1990 (which means he was driving a Ferrari!!),
and it was raining.
