Just caught this on GameRush.com (http://www.racesimcentral.net/):

Grand Prix Legends Returns

"The highly sucessful Grand Prix legends is to be re-released in the UK
on the Sierra Original label later this month according to this release
today.

"Once again, Sierra is looking back to the year 1967, when daring
drivers throughout the Grand Prix circuit took their
primitive-yet-powerful machines to the streets and tracks of the world
in the most dangerous racing season there has ever been. Sierra is
giving a new breed of racing simulation fans another chance to
experience that historic Grand Prix season through the re-release of
Grand Prix Legends on the Sierra Originals label.

"Grand Prix Legends, developed by the award-winning Papyrus Design
Group, features the most realistic vehicle dynamics model available in a
racing simulation. To complete the experience, Papyrus went to great
lengths to re-create the historical tracks, drivers, teams and cars that
made 1967 one of the most thrilling years in racing history."

---------------

I wonder if anything is being added to the re-release under the "Sierra
Originals" label?  Maybe some enhancements to make it a bit more
user-friendly (in-game AI adjustments & difficulty settings, etc.), plus
out-of-the-box and in-game FF support (with no add-on patch or core.ini
tweaks necessary)?  If Papy does this, then they could easily double the
sales numbers of the original release.
