Just wondering how the heck have some managed to get the car smashed
down to the safety cell? I have tried several 350 kph impacts to walls,
other cars, deers, you name it. And I never manage to lose anything but
a wheel there and a wing here.

No, I'm not a crash freak - that ain't proper in F1 :-) Just testing and
chasing some demons.

OK!  Now you are on a subject that I am qualified to talk about!:-)  I
am a shit driver, no other way to put it.  At the start of the race I
cut over to get a better spot and ran over Schumachers wheel.  I saw
my car flip up on its side and slowly turn over and then flip end over
end down the track.  Hit pause and replayed it.  It was amazing!  I
watched my car flipping end over end with wheels flying off, nose
cone, rear  (maybe front) wing...when the car came to a rest it was
just a shell, and the parts that had flown off where visible at the
side of the track.  At Monoco coming out of the tunnel I hit the wall
(you have no idea how bad I am:-), and watched the replay...you could
see the wheel go flying off into the ocean, sea whatever that large
body of water is......I love this game.:-)

cheers

Yeah it seems you get more damage if your involved in a accident with
another car hardly any if you hit the barrier etc.., I just posted about the
accident I had at Spa.
Can you tell me how to replay in game, I have been saving my hotlaps then
watching them after the race, did not realise you could do it in game. I
totally agree about the game, it rocks.

Pausing the game then pressing R does the 20 second replay.

Sure.  Same as GP2 was. After the accident, or anytime you want to see
what you have just done.  Press "space" (that pauses it) then just hit
"R" and the replay starts.  As it is replaying you can hit the arrow
keys , delete, page down, etc to get different camera views of the
replay. when the replay ends, just hit the "R" again and try a
different view again.........must have reviewed my crash at least 8
times.:-)  It was a classic. I havent done hotlaps yet, and never did
with GP2, so that I'm not sure about.

Cheers

I guess I never remembered any other replay capability in GP2
other than this...
