What's the fastest car this time? In F1 2010 it was Redbull, in 2011 it was McLaren.

Good question, dunno. Hard to say in the demo. Surely must be the Red Bull as they won the constructors.

Then the Red Bull should have also been 2011.

Well really McLaren, Ferrari are the best cars atm on the high speed tracks but Red Bull are still better at the low speed and so I presume it will be similar in the game, kinda like it was last year.

Made a new video

Just played the demo and it seems quite good. Couldn't be bothered dragging out the G27 but controlling the cars with the 360 pad was nice enough. It also seemed to run smoother than F1 2011, which I guess is a bonus. Penalty system seems even more strict than previous games though. Think I managed to get four in the demo race and only one of them was for legitimate contact.

So much for staying away from the curbs in the wet. Codemasters said they changed this so you would fear them. So stupid for believing them.

Is there a reason why the Codemasters forums are rejecting password resets?

There was a problem resetting your password.

Where can I find the demo?

Edit: Nvm, found it on Steam.

Can't believe the ridiculous grip in the wet. Even in first gear.

Game seems decent, but the control via X360 pad isn't great, and you can't configure it precisely? Probably will be better with the G27 but I didn't try yet. The pad is too sensitive at speed, and too slow to go from lock to lock at chicanes etc. Overall though, the handling isn't bad. Not the realism of a sim but some balance has to be found in these kind of titles.

They always are, the big publishers always try to appeal to the masses.

Started mine earlier as I got a two pack from Steam so should be quite cheap as long as I find someone to buy second copy, lol. Shame we have to wait until Friday to play though
