Honestly, it's not as good of a driving model as GPL......nothing is.....but it's still a damn good simulation IMO. Probably second-best in my books to GPL. Not a bad buy at all though. Worth every penny.

Ubisoft F1RS finally got to a store here (Canada) and I'm thinking about picking it up. But I'm worried that I've been spoiled by the GPL driving model, which seems to have superb visual feedback so you can tell just when your short of skidding. How does the F1RS driving model stack up against the GPL demo? Joe

IMHO, *NO* other driving model compares favourably to the driving model in GPL. However, f1rs and gp2 are probably the best of the rest? Bear in mind you are trying to compare two totally different types of driving model, eg:- 1990's f1 cars against 1960's f1 cars. The handling characteristics of each are totally different. But GPL *feels* the best to drive. 8?) *Peter* 8-)

>However, f1rs and gp2 are probably the best of the rest? Thanks. I never did like GP2 (and I've got so many F1 sims already collecting dust) so I think I'll just wait for GPL. Joe

Don`t even think of comparing the two,they are 30 years apart,and totally different feeling
