[WIP] World Champions Mod

Hi,

I had the idea to make a mod that would be applicable in F1 2011, but could also be done for F1 2012.

Principle, put in teams (some change of name for the occasion) most drivers world champions since 1950.

For the moment, I made a first draft of what would be the starting grid:

McLaren:

Driver 1: Mika Häkkinen
Driver 2: Lewis Hamilton

Ferrari:

Driver 1: Michael Schumacher
Driver 2: Kimi Räikkönen

Red Bull:

Driver 1: Sebastian Vettel
Driver 2: Jody Scheckter (no other RBR world champion)

Mercedes:

Driver 1: Juan Manuel Fangio
Driver 2: Jenson Button

Williams:

Driver 1: Alain Prost
Driver 2: Damon Hill

Lotus Renault

Driver 1: Graham Hill
Driver 2: Fernando Alonso

Force India McLaren Old School

Driver 1: Ayrton Senna
Driver 2: James Hunt

Toro Rosso Ferrari Old School

Driver 1: Niki Lauda
Driver 2: Alberto Ascari

Sauber: Brabham

Driver 1: Jack Brabham
Driver 2: Nelson Piquet (senior of course)

Caterham Lotus

Driver 1: Jim Clark
Driver 2: Mario Andretti

Marussia: Tyrell Williams (2 mixed teams for 2 drivers from different teams)

Driver 1: Jackie Stewart
Driver 2: Alan Jones

HRT: Williams Old

Driver 1: Keke Rosberg
Driver 2: Nigel Mansell

tell me what you think, I will certainly need people for graphics mod (cars, garages, pit crew ...)
 
Okay, the idea with the mixed livery will look kinda strange; are you thinking about historically correct liveries or more like contemporary liveries based on the old color schemes?

I like the idea very much, but there's a lot of work in it; you'll need some good skin modders to do that, or you'll have to learn it yourself :)

But thumbs up for the idea! Hope you succeed!
 
I'm not fix on the mixed livery, maybe I will use a Tyrell livery, because of already two Williams teams (old and... well, less old).

I started the work for the french language file, all drivers names and bio are in the game now, team names are in too, and I changed the Force India files by McLaren files in order to apply a 1994 McLaren livery, looks really good, it gives me an idea of what would be the final mod ^^ I also use the Senna tribute Helmet, Prost Sega Helmet, Mika Hakkinen 1996 helmet, Ferrari F399 livery, West McLaren livery, and Williams 1994 livery for the moment, just to test with different liveries. I have some pictures I can show you later.

Oh, and I already added KERS for Caterham, Marussia, and HRT.

Of course, I will mention from who the liveries and helmets come, I just don't remember right now x)
 
Two names of great drivers are missing (at least in my opinion):

Jochen Rindt, for he was the only driver ever proclaimed World Champion posthumously.
John Surtees, for he was the only man to ever be World Champion on two AND four wheels.
