There are many F1 tracks of the present and past.

There are some of them converted from GP4.

There are league mods.

The vast number of tracks and the also plenty availabnle mods are what gives GTR2 the edge over rFactor, imo.

So, is this F1 GAME by codemasters even needed? Don't think so.

Heck, most sims and games today are not needed, and just show old stuff in newer clothings - if even that.

Kon, both Australian F1 tracks of the past 15 years, Melbourne AND Adelaide, are available for GRT2, in very good visual quality and stunning detail. Both are much fun, btw.

GTR2, Richard burns Rally, Nascar 2003 season - and your collection of race sim must-haves is complete. For the orginal indea and the entertaining fun-factor, Test Drive Unlimited also gets mentioned. It's not a sim, but the driving model is much better and makes more fun than the critics and sceptics say - definitely worth the 12-15 euros it costs today.

Thanks mate. I have GTR2 but haven't really played it that much owing to the fact that I need a new wheel. Probably will splurge on the Logitech G25 wheel and pedals. I used to play GP4 with the season mods that have been released over the years.

Thanks to for the heads up on the Melbourne and Adelaide tracks. Went to the Adelaide GP when I lived there in 1989 and 1990. Fantastic events. Been to Melbourne aswell but have fonder memories of Adelaide. Planning to go to Spa or Monza this year with my wifes brothers.

By the way right now I'm spending my lunch break watching the live streaming coverage on the ITV website of the second practice session. My man Webber lost it early on and put te RB4 into the wall around turn 6. Looks like the boys in the RB garage will be having a late night putting the front of that car back together.
