Psygnosis Formula 1 - no joystick???

I'm using direct x version 5 with a microsoft sidewinder joystick in formula 1 but formula 1 does not see the joystick I am able to calibrate in control panel and use with all other games?? Is this a known bug and is there a patch out yet Tom

DX5, Sidewinder 3D Pro in its native mode, connected to a regular SB16 game port. Didn't have to fiddle anything, SW3DPro worked fine with UBI F1 demo instantly.
