“I'm actually enjoying this game more than the modern titles. Cars are more fun, sound better and the game is simpler so its faster to just jump in and race.”

“I'm not much of a reviewer guy, but after watching Jimmy Broadbent play the carrer mode of F1 2012, I've installed this game that I had when I bought a F1 bundle, but never played this specific one. Thank you Jimmy, this game is absolutly incredible compared to modern F1 games.…”
