You can also ask for the same weather that was on the actual race day. Unfortunately, some fixes are still absent. For instance, your in-car view is way too confining, and there is no head panning. But in this game you are stuffed down close to the front wheels, and you can t even see the outsides of them. You cannot look into the turn, which tends to cause drivers to make the mistake of early turn-ins, making hitting apexes a task more challenging then should be necessary.
Audio continues to be a strong point with the game.
The sounds have been updated and I think they sound pretty good, particularly the backfiring of the engine as it brakes and the car downshifts into a turn. Unlike its main competitor, Grand Prix 3, a very active crew chief keeps you up to date with what s going on around the track. Even during qualifying, you ll be notified when your opposition has left the pits, whether or not one of your splits has been broken, whether someone new has captured the pole, etc. There are also warnings of spins and other problems at various places around the track. Most importantly, this review has to concentrate on gameplay.
