This F1 simulator is great for beginners and experts alike. The A.I. is brilliant. Th handling is very realistic it understeers ( When the front Tires have less traction (grip) than the rear wheels ) and Oversteers ( When the rear tires have less traction (grip) than the front wheels) like a real f1 race car. The damage shows a lot on your performance.You can participate in the f1 championships but before you can race you should practice, qualify and warm up then you are ready to race. Overall highly recommended for F1 fans.
