Search this thread because it's already been posted, I know it can be done.

There is mechanical failures for CPU controlled cars, but the user's car cannot not experience a mechanical failure.

I'm a huge F1 nut my game is coming in today for the PS3. When I get it I will post a very detailed review before bedtime.

I'd like to know if it possible to switch to AI cars during replays, thanks.

One of the best features of the MP, is the simple fact that you can do a private Grand Prix with as little as you and one other friend, with the rest of the field being comprised of AI drivers. So basically you can do a whole season with a friend, and AI's all online......

I know Paul said that MP was important to them, but not a focus this year. Here is to hoping that they tweak it next year, and add new options like practice mode, share a set-up, and race viewer( if you're not racing, you can view it live) just to name a few.

This game is an absolute masterpiece. I have it on the PC, with a Logitech g27 racing wheel, I7 processor, Radeon 4800 HD video card, and 6gb ram so that I can turn the graphics all the way up to Ultra without lag whatsoever. I'm not bragging just letting you know my set up. If your PC can handle it, I suggest getting it for you pc.

I've only raced a few, and I would say this game leans far towards sim as opposed to arcade. Turn off all assists, manually configure your car, and change camera to cockpit view and you have yourself a very realistic sim game. However, if you want arcade style, you can certainly turn up the driving assists, as well as do a quick set up for each race and then change the camera view.


All in all, I give it a 9.5/10.

You created a situation that's NEVER going to happen ever. There's never going to be a car sitting off the track for 20 laps. Even if cars did crash, this test is pointless.
