Looks like EA will have yet another game to add to their huge portfolio, the
game should feature 1999 season data, and is expected to be released in a
few months (heard that before:)) Apparently, the game will focus more on
race strategy and hiring drivers/tech people and less on the mechanical side
of things. Oddly enough, I didn't see anything on EA's website, but there is
a snippet in this month's UK PC Zone

Seem's they had this one planned from the beginning though, my spies
detected such a move from EA's press release in february:

".... EA's Formula One games will let motorsports fans worldwide become
drivers and owners, negotiating the curves as well as the contracts. The
Formula One license, coupled with our best-selling NASCAR titles, has put us
in the position to bring the best racing experiences in the world to the
leading interactive formats..."

So there you go...

My "spies" ???

This game is known by many since a very long time.  Just take a peek at any
GPWorld site, there is a good chance you will get information on it since
both are much the same.  IIRC, from the screenshots I saw, there will be a
full 3d simulation inside of it to replicate the races.

Oh, Sorry, I had no idea at all, and this was the first I'd heard. Too busy
