This game is not realistic. You can break late turn late and still make the turn. this game got a lot of good reviews well here's the truth. If you are a F-1 fan buy EA SPORTS F1 2001.(for computer) IT's the real thing.IT has a lot better auido and viedo. you can really read the sponsers on the cars. It also has a Driving School,test day,quick race,championship,and Grand prix. I've played all kinds of racing games on comp. playstation and N-64 and world grand prix is not good. I thought that I was a good driver and I still haven't mastered F-1 2001 on the 1st difficult level. I drove world grand prix about 5 min. and could almost place in the top 3 in all the races.

Very Realistic

If you look up the definition for 'details' or 'realistic' in the diccionary, you would probalbly fint F1 GP. Buy it, or rent it and see for yourself. It might be a little dull and complicades at the begining, but if you are a true F1 fan, you will love it!

A good introduction to F1

This game serves as a brilliant introduction to F1. It should seem quite difficult to start off with, but after a while you will be hooked. The handling is quite difficult, but you are luckily able to adjust the gameplay to suit your level of competence at the game.

The graphics are pretty sweet too, however my one critism of the game is that the multiplayer option does not work well - as racing with only two cars on the track is quite boring.

However as a 1player game - it is fantastic.

GREAT GAME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought this game had terrific graphics for the date it was released. It also is one of he few games that has full length races in the game. I am a NASCAR and F-1 fan and I recommend this to all race fans- this is excellent work. Also the high-speed thrill of the car keeps you looking at your TV screen for hours making turn-by-turn on some of the world's toughest tracks. Please buy this great game.

I think that this game fits all ages. From grown ups to kids of all ages. I had a real fun time racing the funest game that I have ever played. The turning is a little hard but you'll get the hang of it in minutes. So try it out!

it's just a game....it's just a game.....

Somehow I had managed to qualify 5th...WHAM! the race is on, I get a great start....I quickly make my way up to 3rd and 2nd place is just ahead of me, the first corner is coming up really quickly, I'm going to brake late and make the pass...I hit the brake and start turning, all four wheels lose traction and I slide off into the sand trap. When I finally get back on the track I'm in 10th place. I finished in 4th.

Wow. You really get into this game. It is without a doubt the best racing game I've ever played. The graphics are great, the physics are reallistic (execpt for crashing, it takes a lot to really mess up your car), and the courses are very challenging (especialy Monaco).

There is a lot of stuff you can do in this game. You can adjust the front and rear wings, the tires, suspension, gearing, stearing, and how much feul you have, and they all greatly affect how the car performs. If you don't know anything about cars you can select a preset for that track, and it will fix everything for you. However, a few tweaks will make you faster.

One very cool option is the 97 EVENTS option, which makes the weather work exactly as it did in the 1997 race season.

If you like games like Crusin' USA, you probably will not like this one. This is not an arcade racer, it is a simulator.

Gamespot.com said that there is a framerate slow down problem occasionly, but I haven't noticed it.

Once you buy the game, don't forget: It's just a game.

Wonderful

This game is really the first F1 simulator to really take advantage of powerful console technology. The graphics rival some games for the Sega Dreamcast (a *much* more powerful system than the N64). The amount of options make for a virtually limitless game.

Maybe the best compliment to be given, is that this game got me into Formula 1. Before I played this, I only vaguely knew what F1 was. But afterwards, I was hooked, and I've been an intense fan ever since. That should give you an idea of how spectacular this game is. Truly a classic.
