  • Summary: Cutting-edge technology brings you the most accurate representation of Formula One to date. High-resolution car models include details right down to the very last shut line. Circuits include real life structures, helicopters, airplanes, panoramic skies, animated grid girls, motion captured pit crews, and even bumps in the track surface as they exist in reality. The glossy team-themed user interface puts you in the game and tracks your performance as a real life driver competing against the likes of world champion drives such as Damon Hill, Jacques Villeneuve, Mika Hakkinen, and Michael Schumacher.

    You will have to spend some time practicing and tweaking your opponents, your car handling, and your realism settings to find the right spot for you. If you are willing to do all of this, then this is a fine F1 simulation that will ultimately reward you.

    Everything you could want for hot lapping, racing individual races or enjoying full championship seasons is in this single, reasonably priced package.

    The best F1 game I've had or ever have I think. Absolutely brilliant work from EA. Now waiting for F1 2007, lol.

    If you are willing to spend the time, as the realism increases with the driving assists turned "off", you will be exhilerated. This game is not for casual console gamers with short attention spans. Do yourself a favor, get a force-feedback wheel and you will feel more sensations through the wheel from this game then any other racing game ever published. You will feel the g-forces as you round a long, easy bend at 230 MPH in 7th gear. You can feel the bumps on the curbs of the chicanes. You can feel your front tire touch the gravel when you understeer. It doesn't get more realistic or more fun. Only thing missing is dedicated server option to accomodate more than 8 players. One other annoyance, the screen freezes for a couple seconds when someone joins the race. Not a problem if you are racing with friends at an appointed time and IP address.… Expand

    Pretty much the best F1 simulation out there... possibly only GP4 beats it in terms of wet weather racing and on track events (marshals etc.) Other than that nothing comes close. That goes for GP4!… Expand
