Can anyone say which sim offers the best realism of the actual racing circuits, based on the year they are designed for. The reason begin I have played F1 and the tracks seem to be much longer than the GP2 equivalent. Thanks for any replies. _________ Richard Sobey <[link lost in import]>

I think F1 is the more realistic track wise - certainly Spa and Monza seem spot on - I think the reason that the tracks seem longer is that the cars are slower - Monza,the pole qualifying time on Hard level is almost 8 seconds off from reality - which makes the cars travel that bit slower and make the circuits seem longer - where as on GP2 the cars quite often exceed 200mph if set up correctly on the straights,this would dramatically reduce the apparent length of the circuits.
