I wish I could take this guy on in GPL...

from this article http://www.racesimcentral.net/

"
Montoya has never been to Melbourne, let alone seen the Albert Park circuit,
but says that won't be a problem either.

"I've driven it lots of times -- on computer games," he said.

"It's not the real thing but it gives you an idea how you've got to turn
right, left and stuff like that.

"With the new technology you can actually get a fairly good idea of what you
are doing.

Well I'm sure I read somewhere once that his fave games were GP2 and GPL so
you never know...

Montoya and many other CART drivers absolutely love Grand Prix Legends ;-)

well
in that case, Montoya is like a representative of us gamers
( who on many occasion dreams of actually driving in a real race
after many rounds on the computer )

Maybe indeed.

They'd never live it down if they joined a Monza race with 1:30 lap times
and got stuffed <G>
