I am sorry to say that IMHO they are both a MUST BUY. The one thing
I don't like about GP2 is that you cannot hear the other cars like
you can in ICR2 & NASCAR/NASCAR2.

If you love F1, then obviously yu want GP2 (and perhaps F1 by
Psygnosis for Playstation, which is amazing). If you love indycar, you
buy ICR2. But if you just lvoe racing sims, you buy ALL of those, and
then wait a few weeks and buy NASCAR2 also.

They're all pretty incredible sims at what they try to do.

Gp Sound is great. Unfortunately, you don't get opponent engine sound.

The physical model of ICR2 seems to be better then again, I never drove
an indycar.

Graphically, GP2 is superior. The model is good for the hard core
driver. The physical is good enough for the hard core driving sim fans.
(You gotta love the car bouncing all over the place:) ).

If you ask me, get both... It should keep you busy until ICR3 or Gp3 (if
they ever do them):)

I think this has been debated here before, but didn't Hill say
that, when he was nearly rammed by Berger in Suzuka, that this
was the first time he had heard the sounds of another's engine
(that year ?).

I don't drive an F1 car regularly so I can't say... but think
that although it is realistic to have the other car's engines
muted, it would've been better to have some sounds from the
other cars. Especially when you're in Eurosport :) replay mode.

Vroom!
