I think so. When I pre ordered the game Sept 21. was the release date too.

Found another preview:

This one says that in the US it comes out on the 18th. So anyone in America can get it then.
I think i'll have to wait a couple of days though because I'm in Australia.

Lot of focus on making it easier to use the pad.
And good sounding info on weather.

I think he once said it won't be in 2012 but I can't find the news article right now. :/

Well of course CM considered a lot of things, just that they can only manage to put in... 1/100 suggestions into the actual game. I am not surprised that Steven Hood will later say, "no it will not be in 2012".

Dev Diary #2 and the official release date: http://www.racedepartment.com/2012/08/f1-2012-the-game-dev-diary-video-release-date/

Looking forward to this game ! Also they seem to have added t-cam view like in the TV broadcasts !

 

[ToroRossoRulez]

I hope they still put the HUD on the t-cam that is shown in TV broadcasts, because the HUD is off, but on the normal t-cam it's on

 

[mschumi2005]

Is it just me, because I really expected more from Codemasters this year!

Just found this photo from Formula1game's twitter feed.
The drying line looks so much better! And Alonso's Ferrari looks... Delicious!

Can't really be bothered posting every photo that they post up, but if you have twitter, then just keep an eye out for #F1GC and that will show up with all the posts that Codie's tweet, which include photos (Mostly offscreen)

Loads of Gameplay videos to come out and from the Players who played at the Event held by Cm for Journalists they gave some Interesting news about Handling

We can't shift the gears down so quickly and Doing so gives a Engine Blow out according to them

 

[THRS_F]

F1 2010 Graphics and F1 2012 Lightning - F1 2012 Handling - and you get a great game, CM is wasting time...

 

[Costandino Antoniou]

I wish they took more of a sim approach to this game. I play GT5 and thats not really a "sim game" compared to the PC but I feel that the F1 games are just so un-realistic.

I might get it when it gets cheap but not on release

This is great news, and the exact opposite of what I feared

You can blow your engine in '11 already though, if you do it too fast.

Yeah When you do engine Breaking you can blow it but an F1 engine will blow easily even if you shift the Gears down quickly with out revs are Settled
I was waiting for some More data on this as how much exactly this was working because in '11 we can trail brake so quickly which enables us Super quick lap times
