Looking at Gp3 Pics I realised there was very few pictures of certain cars
like the maclaren, Ferrari , Williams etc
does any one know why this is?

I'm not fully answering your question but... since we all know Arrows is
very closely involved with the development of GP3 compared to other F1
teams, it's quite obvious that the marketing department at Hasbro/Microprose
would give them some publicity with the screenshots (in which you
pre***ly see the black car).

Basically, everyone else has noticed this too but no one knows why.  There
are some shots with the Ferrari and McLaren, just not very many.

I haven't seen any shots of the Williams, too

That's true isn't it.   Hmm.... very strange.   Maybe they're working on a
different carshape for the top couple of teams?  I was going to guess that
it might have something to do with tobacco sponsorship, but then I
remembered that the tobacco logos are present on the jordan shots.
Another thing i've heard is that screenshots have to be submitted to the FIA
for approval, so maybe it's something to do with that.
Like I said, no one knows.

Yes this is true anything directly relating to the release of the game and
any promotional material, press releases and videos etc all have to be
approved by the FIA before they can be released.

Hope this helps,
