: And its cars are all looked like just stick on the ground exactly parallel,
: no suspension works at all in every screen shots, like Ubi F1. Looks
: unnatural.
Well, I will cut them some slack here. The suspension travel in modern F1
cars is minimal and you rarely see it, except in those special
agonizingly-slow RTL replays of nothing happening.

I asn't too impressed to be honest.....
..lots of detail as we have come to expect from EA, which is what I love
about them but it just lacks something.....
Why has the driver in the '99 Jordan a cross between Wurz, and Fisichella's
helmet?
Even if they had Fisi it would be outdaetd ut there did the Wurz part come
from?
And whats withthe size ofthe heads!?!?!
On the other hand from the outside view you could actually see the cars
behind in the mirrors and it had a 3d looking wheel but although the detail
is there, it just went wrong somewere along the way, i think....
Although I'll take it all back if EA come up with the phsysics
promised......
.....since I'm jusdging that on Newmann Haas and Adretti Racing..... brill
GFX but lacking in any realism.
Come on EA..prove me wrong!

Unlucky Europeans for having Mr. Walker? My friend... you're only
jelous!
We need more sims with non-stop commentary like F1 97 had, ESPECIALLY
from Murray!

Well, until they start piping Murray's commentary into Eddie Irvine's
helmet on race day, I can also live without it...

All sarcasm aside now, I can hardly bear watching a GP on TV
without Murray.
Here's where I disagree with you. Much as I love Murray, the
commentary in the F1 series is a very long way from being wanted.

Long Live Nigel Mansell!
