Hi All

I'm `mirroring' the F1 season with F1GP and had some interesting
experiences with the Spanish Grand prix. I use CH pro pedals
and flight yoke, with steering help and traction control turned OFF.
My best qualifying time at Catalunya was 1.21.288 - which is
pretty close to actual qualifying times. Anyway, I was watching
Hill do his quick lap and I noticed that he used a different line
into one of the corners to me. I replayed it a couples of times and
then tried it myself. Lo and behold I did 1.20.853! Again, similar
to Hill's actual time. This isn't the first time this sort of thing
has happened - has anybody else noticed the same?

Alan

Erm.

Not, really - I've managed a 1:13.5 - without the chicane!

Hiya m8

Erm 1:21 is a very realistic time in real life but I can do a 1:13:537.
Not putting you down or anything though.

exists! So there is no link between real times and gpf1 times!Anyway , if you have found updates, please tell
me!
