What's a good F-1 or Indy Car sim??

I have GPL, CART Racing and Official Formula 1 racing.  I'm looking
for something new.  

Any suggestions?

Download the demo for F1 Championship Season 2000 (F1CS2K) -- this is
the closest F1 simulatino to GPL at this point in time, and there's a
ton of support available, ranging from add-on cars and tracks to
setups.  You can get the demo here:

People are hard at work on a CART conversion for F1CS2K, so if you're
interested in CART, this is one to watch.  There are no IRL or Indy
sims in the works at the moment, unfortunately.

As far as other F1 sims are concerned, Grand Prix 3 (GP3) is also
decent, but not my cup of tea:

F1 World Grand Prix (F1WGP) is nice-looking, but tends toward arcadish
play.  Not bad, though, and lots of fun (more fun than GP3 in my book,
but not up to F1CS2K standards):

Warm Up! is from the same people who did F1WGP -- it's a little more
arcade-like, but the emphasis is on fun with this title.  Decent
overall, and worth a look-see:

Hope this helps a bit!

Is this someone who is merely pretending to be from a Latin American
country?

Duh!  Anybody could tell you that that was an ITALIAN term!  It was an
honest mistake on your part, though, so I'll let it slide . . .
