Somehow, i can't seem to see any laptime in the practice mode... Is this for real or am I just doing something wrong ? I am sure that it is impossible...There must be something that calculates your time in the practice mode...like in real life !!!!!!!! Or like in GP2 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Imagine the hundreds of test runs that F1 racing drivers do in the off season: They have a timer !!!!! Thanks !!!!!!!!! -Luc

The only practices I have done are the ones that are part of a Grand Prix weekend. The lap times are shown there. -- Header intentionally scrambled to ward off the spamming hordes.
Are you referring to training or practice during a race weekend? The former is pretty much geared specifically towards getting to know the track, not on improving your speed. Practice during a race weekend does show lap times for "fast laps." If you want to run hot laps, choose time attack. This is where you test the car out and see how fast you can go. You can either run ghost laps, where you can run against ghosts of yourself or others, or free laps.
