  Players of Psygnosis's Formula 1 '97 reported bugs such as wet tyres being swapped for slicks at pit stops, slowdown with many cars on screen, and unrealistic setup behaviour. Greg Cisko dismissed the PC Formula 1 as no simulation, though others noted F1 '97 was a different and better sequel. Some compared it with EA's NASCAR 98 and V-Rally.
