Not 100% sure, but I think so - it won't be Career mode, it's just a standard "practice, qualify, race, move on"

@DoubleFart - do you consider using the wheel as a major enhancement of the expierence?
Or would you have stuck with the controller?

Still undecided what to do.

Get the wheel. I'm 1180th around Austria on Time Trial in the F2004 now. The wheel has really helped me.

490th in the World around Austria in the F2004.

1:06.771 is my best
1:06.580 is my theoretical best based on sector times.

I reckon I have a 1:06.1xx in me at the moment.

@Antonov I await your time.

I think that Catalunya, Silverstone and Paul Ricard are the circuits that require a balance of all skills - low speed corners, high speed corners, increasing radius corners. I think they're better tests of driving without being totally boring.

I don't really have a strong preference and am happy for you to pick any of those.

Lol, why do you have to mention three of my least favorite tracks?

Any others you can think of?

I'll try and play tomorrow night - depends on getting daughter to bed early enough to warrant setting up the wheel.

I don't have any racegame besides rFactor 1 installed. And have not raced in more than three months.

I'm very poor, usually at least 1 sec off my son's times , but I'll have a go.

I notice that setting a f2 championship to 5 laps only works for the sprint, you have to slog through 32 laps or so first

Another observation is that the ai is massively worse on f2 than F1. I can beat 80% on a controller. Is that because you have more time to make your reactions in f2? Surely not the full explanation

And Pedro Piquet looks err, nothing much like pedro piquet

But to be fair, the helmet looks terrific
The board equivalent of the Jody scheckter chicane. Fast but pointless
