F1 or Indy

Rating: Null/10 (27 October 2002)

I just so happen to watch it again when HBO re-run it again. I am a F1 fan and I hardly watch Indy 500. But the race in Driven is definitely not F1. I initially thought it was about Indy 500 but only F1 travels round the world.
Anyway, some inconsistencies.
1. After warm up laps, the car don't just zoom off. They line up in the position after their qualifiying position.
2. There was no qualifying races because the main race.
3. In the pit lane, the cars are not suppose to race more than 80km/h (or is it 100) But Sly drove at light speed.
4. In a serious crash, the race will restart not continue.
5. It is very rare to see F1 car goes somersauts because F1 is really about driving and making turns rather than horsepower. If there are accidents, usually is bump on the near side of the track. The somersauts in Driven are gold medals performance in the Olympics pool.
6. The tactics and race strategies are also more to Indy because it is totally different. F1 overtake by manevur behind the car, not using momentum to carry through on the turn.
7. F1 tracks are flat! Period.
Ok, they have to change the rules to suit the script. Suspend disbelief, I get it.
