Fernando Alonso will win this season

Yeah I know - saw that, excellent price so put a pre-order in. That latest spa youtube vid looks excellent. I can't wait.

As for Alonso - hmmmm don't be so sure. Webber might do it, Hamilton could or Vettel could get his act together and surprise. I think any one of them could do this. Excellent season so far, and looks to be an excellent game to allow us to drive our own 2010 seasons.. Can't wait.

I would say the way things are going one of the Red Bull drivers my money would be on Vettel, if it wasn't for the car troubles he has had he would be well in the title hunt.
 
Wow sir, you are teasing us. Watching the video I think I’ve just wet my boxers..!! lol The pit crew looks superb, the ontrack action looks better then the real deal.

If this gets installed, and I don’t touch Grand Prix 4 again, you’ve got a winner on your hands for me. Just can’t wait, I’ve actually booked a day off work, I kid not. First time ever for a game launch. You’d better not cancel the launch day, and it had better play as good as that video..!!

Glad you liked it :) Here are a few associated screens that were put out along with the video on the Formula One website.

You can't fool me, trying to pass off real photos as ingame screenshots, I'm on to you :p

This looks seriously good, I'm tempted to book the day off work as well, haven't done that in quite a while for a game (sad I know :()

I really can't wait for this game to come out. Just torn between getting the PC version or the PS3 one (PS3 is hooked up to a 40" TV)

Dammit decisions, decisions.......guess I need a pad for my PC
 
all these people talking about GP4.... How did you ever get it running properly? I could do short races, but EVERY time i entered the pits, i would get stuck in the air....?

Not something I've seen since playing GP4, running GPXPatch with pitstop bug fix...

GP4 does have some issues though. Racing around monaco tonight, I saw the whole pit crew floating around the swimming pool complex... Grand Prix 4 is a very old game, I'm amazed its still out there, but then this is what happens when you've been starved of any f1 games for PC. and gp4.exe crashed again just as I was hunting massa down, i'd raced and nearly destroyed my car in the process overtaking two BMW saubers, and pulled of some amazing overtakes, only for the dreaded gp4.exe has stopped working on the final lap... Grr..!! happens a lot.

rFactor can be modded, but really... Some folks just want to hook up a wheel and drive an F1 season.. Codemasters could be onto something here if they release a new F1 season each year...

Anyhow, Grand Prix 4 is only as good as the mods nowadays.
 
I am having a play with rfactor now with some mods the 2006 is ok 2010 is kinda ok at this time i am using rfactor CTDP F1 2006 with the 2010 tracks because can not find the 2006 track pack thought it would be with the pack but can not find tracks :D
 
Make sure that you're running the game in a medium-high verbosity mode in gpxpatch, this should stop errors, or at least after a crash tell you what went wrong so you can fix it.

You should definetely try FSone 2009, one of the better F1 mods after a few setup changes.
 
Something I've not seen in any video I've watched of F1 2010, which seems odd, is there is no TV style overlays..

i've not seen any idea as to how you know split times during qualifying, race pace, positions etc... Only four cars listed in the top corner, which to be honest looks a bit pants..

Is the LG timings being included? Like what you see on BBC? I hope so, I mean that's going to be a huge let down if its using codemasters own TV style timings considering this is an official FIA licensed product..

edit

Just found this -

CM want the game to be based from the perspective of the driver, not a spectator. Therefore, LG screens will not feature in the game.

erm.... no..!! You'll have a HUD of some sorts, I mean you've got in some videos I've seen four cars listed at the top of the screen... Ok, so don't include them for actual racing, but for replays? They need to be there, sorry.. If this statement is true I'm very dissappointed.
