During GP2, I saw in the manual several flags, like for oil. Are all those flags inside GP2? Also, can the wheater change during a GP, or during practice ? Al last, Can pit boards be seen when driving? Can anyone give me some answers??? S.H. Kok, Holland

No. You will only see yellow and green flags. I don't mention the black flag because it is a little bit silly. If you cut a corner you will se a black flag and you will experience a 10 second power loss. With a true black flag you should drive into the pits for a stop/go penalty. No and no. Weather changes and more flags might be implemented in the GP2 upgrade version (available for Christmas?).. Borger Borgersen Oslo, Norway

A real black flag means that your are disqualified ! As we know that Microprose is really fast in developping their stuff this will be Christmas anno 2005.

Hey ! You burnt the following into my screen : Nothing of these !!! You have to wait for the patch made by Crammond to enable all these features !!!

NO. A real black flag means you are to receive a "stop and go" penalty in the pits. If you do not respond (w/in 3 laps I think), then you are disqualified.

> Nothing of these !!! > You have to wait for the patch made by Crammond to enable all these features !!! Ha, you wish! NONE of these things will be in the patch. The patch does allow a dry or wet race, but does NOT implement weather changes during a race (or in qualifying or practise either). As for a extra flags and pit boards, forget it. Not before the third millenium anyway.

Where have you read that Crammond is makeing a patch. I dont mean theses rumours going round, I mean an official announcement. As far, as I can see, has neither Crammond nor MPS official announced, that they will work on a weather patch. Until now, this rumours only bring people to buy the game, cause they think they get a patch, but there is no way, until MPS will announce one. Cheers Thomas --- Get up, dive down, no problem

All these were supposed to be in gp2 but were dropped so u have to wait for patch, they even have the digitised voice of the pit crew which is in gp2 sound file but not in game eg of sound are which ive heard is water on track, oil on track, black flag, red flag stop race so all this sound is going to be in the game even cheers from the crowd are there they paid for it so it will be there lets just hope its soon

Says who, Mr. "Jackie Stewart"? You have this patch that hasn't been written yet do you? I'm afraid your credibility is close to zero - pity for you the real name of the team is _Paul_ Stewart Racing, isn't it, although if you'd used that, I suppose you could be sued for trademark infringement. - Craig ("Strobe"). P.S. Yes, I know the F1 team is putatively just "Stewart Racing", but then why "jsracing.co.uk", hmmm? P.P.S. You really expect people to believe that JYS has nothing better to do than post juvenile comments on r.a.s.?
