Whilst F1 2012 in itself is indeed looking and feeling great right out of the box there's always an improvement down the road. We are in the lucky position to have all these incredibly talented people posting their modifications on RD. This, however, can lead to either missing out on awesome mods because of the quick succession of postings or getting overwhelmed by the sheer amount of different modifcations.
This article will guide you through the jungle that is the
F1 2012 Mods board and not only list the best graphical modifications to date but also list possible alternatives.
Neither of these mods will give you an advantage in-game but merely replace the standard textures with higher resolution textures and / or updated skins. This list reflects my own choice of modifications and doesn't necessarily list all modifications currently available and is in no way exhaustive.

You can further improve the quality of all car skins if you copy the high quality texture into the low quality folder and rename the texture appropriately. Bear in mind that this means that the car skins alone might need several GB of space on your hard drive.
Please keep in mind that most of these mods will add graphical quality and can thus lead to losing performance. If you're already hardly being able to play the game smoothly you might want to be cautious.
