sony?
its been suggested ea didnt renew the license because they couldnt get
exclusive rights to the sport like theyve managed to get for nascar.
theres a quote in this weeks MCV saying that f1 was eas 2nd biggest sports
sector after fifa, so its a bit of a suprise.

I didn't get the last Ubi F1 sim, it didn't come to my part
of the U.S.
I think people were impressed with the accuracy of the tracks
and the graphics, but were disappointed by the A.I. I don't
remember the take on the Ubi physics modeling.
This might be fine. If Ubi brings those strengths to this
sim, with no licensing to limit on-line play, and third parties
creating models of the real cars, this could a great online sim.

F1RC had some good features. Let down by mainly by poor AI. Well, bizarre AI. I
still claim my greatest ever race against AI was in F1RC (after applying some
3rd party patches), but it was a one off, really curious.
If RS3 addressed these issues and further develops the physics model it could be
good. Certainly an F12002 beater IMO.
Now I am sure the argument will rage over Ubisoft failing to deliver the
promised F1RC patch but I will remain open minded on RS3.
Despite claims of certain members of this group being Papyrus lovers, I still
reckon we are all fickle enough to jump ship to any product that might deliver.
If GP5 proved to be a truly awesome sim embraced by the sim community at large,
IMHO those that criticised GP4 are unlikely to refuse to purchase it on
principal.
Cheers

Hmmm.....

RS3 looks like a backstep from F1RC. More then a MGPRS2 sequel.
Nobody should ever buy a Geoff Crammond game that is stuck with his
technology of a 15-year old game engine (it's really that old).

Well you aren't from the U.K. no? Same for me, I'm not from France. Those
***ers at Ubisoft can shovel their crappy-looking RS3 you know where. They
indeed lied,.there won't ever be a patch for F1RC. The sequel looks even
worse then F1RC.
