It's been a while since the last F1 sim.
EA has dropped out, there's no news of a GP-5, and Ubisoft has also lost
interest in F-1.
So... what are the chances of any new F-1 sim?
F-1 2003 and F-1 2004 are very welcome due to the new rules and such.

I think there will be F1 games ( sims ) but they wont contain any real
names,cars etc...
But since when has that mattered..unless your a marketing man !!

Don't Sony have the F1 license now for a few years? So, PS2(/3) only for a
few years, I guess. But the 2003 season mod for F1C is already available,
and its safe to assume 2004 (and 05) will be done too.

Who cares. The FIA wont allow anyone to make them fully multiplayer over
the net so they don't even qualify as a sim imo. Until someone takes to the
FIA with a gun, this will no doubt remain the case. Like any idiot, they'll
keep doing this stupid thing 'til it gets them smashed to pieces.

Checked Gamestop.com (EBWorld too slow) but no mention of it.
I may rent it first. I'll also have to try the 2003 mod for F1C.
AFAIK Sony does have the F1 license now.
