I hope it's pre-95 Imola!

The screenshot shows the Williams from 1988 which didn't win a race that season.
Codies must not of been able to afford the championship winning cars from 1986/87

IMOLA! Yeah, that's freaking awesome.

Is it just me or does the colors look MUCH better now!?

No ..... not by my book. It looks similar to F1 2010, and I don't like the idea that just because something is 'old', it has to have sepia tint like some old ancient photograph.

I was alive in those days ...... and I swear that I had full colour vision then, as now.

Well, they say sight is the first thing to go, with the memory following closely

 

[Andrew Holmes]

it would be a huge shame if Senna wasn't on the game! what a racer

 

[ENDR]

I wouldn't keep my hopes up as I'm pretty sure it would be pretty difficult to get a consent from the family. Even McLaren in their latest Tooned episode only showed "an unnamed McLaren driver" wearing a helmet painted in a particular way.
And honestly - I would feel pretty weird, if I knew that everyone can "use" my tragically deceased brother's "body" to crash around in a computer game.

[Adynko]

I´m a little disappointed. Practice 1-2 = no. formation lap, podiums = no. I fear that they developed mainly classic cars-tracks as F1 2013 :/ I hope that I am wrong.

 

[Ketnix]

Im reasonably pleased with the features, no practice 1-2 is pretty disapointing still. Although now being able to save at any point during your career is fantastic, I can now do 100% distance races more often and not have to worry about doing it all in one sitting.

 

[Freyk]

No formation lap? No podiums? Really? What is the difference between 2012 and 2013 except new season and classic cars?

 

[ParkYongLee]

The same procedure as last year, Miss Sophie?

The same procedure as every year, James.

F1 201 X, series games, facts:
- Games are made to be commercial profit
- F1 2012, 12 patches, were planned...Can't say more!
- Bugs, small changes, will make you.... Buy next version
Like in real life... 2014 here is the big changes on Software, Hardware, even on real F1.

 

[Jonathan Rowland]

Just watched a gamespot video interview with Paul Jeal. And he confirmed tyre scaling is back for 2013, so that's good

 

[ramses20]

The GP2 championship is a separately organised event, even though it is a feeder series to F1. So isn't included in the formula 1 license. So its not possible for them to do it even if they wanted to

It is possible, but at first they should buy GP2 license

Hey guys,

I'm very interested in the Multiplayer mode. In F1 2011 and F1 2012, coop and normal MP weren't really satisfying. So with F1 2013, they announced that they will use "RaceNet" which they already use for GRID 2.
Does anyone has experience with the Multiplayer of GRID 2? Anyone knows about lag, disconnects, stability, dedicated server?

Thx for answering!

Are you looking to expand on that in this year's game with some new drivers? How about classic drivers?

Not in this year’s game, that was the highlight for last year when we had Schumacher in there and a number of world champs, since he’s left the sport it’s not appropriate to have it anymore. He’s still available in our classic content.
