Does anyone know if grand prix II is going to have all the real sponsors?
if there is a problem with tabacco and other things they should mispell
it/ for example marboro instead of marlboro.

There is a bit of trouble with tobacco sponsorship, so instead
Crammond's team have substituted symbols and other clever methods,
just as is done in real GP racing in countries like the UK and
Germany! This means that 'Rothmans' is replaced by 'Racing', and 'Mild
Seven' is replaced by 'Benetton'!! I think that mis-spelling the names
would have been too unrealistic, and the method used in the game is an
actual method used in real-life anyway. I believe ICR2 uses the same
technique, as tobacco sponsorship is illegal in some states.

Does anybody know if there will be a utility to edit these cars? ie
paintkit etc...?  I know this was discussed here, but I do not remember
the answer on the paintable cars issue.

OK. This gives rise to a new question (I think) that I haven't seen
answered anywhere. Will F1GP2 have a painting feature like NASCAR or
ICR2? A Goodwrench F1 car might be interesting!
