Does anyone know if GP2 will have the same replay
capabilities, ie the length of the replay is proportional
to the amount of free memory after the sim has loaded,
as ICR and NASCAR?

Until now, GP2 Replay work in the same way as the GP1 replay (short,
can be save with the state of the race). I don't think this will
change before the release of the game, but maybe...

Yes, it is supposed to. At least a replay for 1 lap.

I will be very disappointed if GP2 has only a 1 lap replay
ability. What a waste.
Let's hope...

Yes for external angles. The Lap recording is more designed for the
telemetrie than for viewing, and is independant from the "direct
replay" (Pause during action, then R, and wait for the end of the
Replay)

I'd rather like it if you could open a demo/log file like with gpperf,
which you could save on a RAM disk or on a fast harddisk.
By the way, did you know that in F1GP you can CHANGE replays?
Save a race when two cars are about to collide, then leave the game,
change the damage values with gpdamed, and reload the game.
You'll notice that you can change the whole race!

Yeah, sometime strange things can happen, and a replay will be totally
different from the actual race. I've seen it happen with CPU cars, only
with my car on the Amiga version though.
