Did anyone else see the GP3 advert at Silverstone at the weekend?
Wow! It looked fantastic. It was the first time I had seen moving replay
shots, other tracks than Monaco, crash debris, a car rolling etc. Still no
sign of weather effects though. There seemed to be some serious slowdown on
replays with many cars on the screen, but all the in car stuff was very
smooth.
Can't wait to drive it...

Wasn't at Silverstone, but I d/l a video that a guy recorded from the big
screen, 6.6mb d/l and doesn't look to bad get it here

Quality isn't 100% but it gives you some idea about how it's looking, BTW I
think we might have to have a pretty good rig to run this baby.

That seems very worrying to me especially since that is running on a top
spec machine. Something around PIII 550 didn't they say. I also am looking
forward to playing it. I saw it running down in Melbourne at the GP and
wasn't over impressive all though that new video looks quite good. Doesn't
appear to have any skid marks on the road either.
