It covers seasons 2005 to 2011, and it allows you to play back all races giving lap-by-lap times (no real footage, just a schematic replay). You might find it useful for your reviews or simply to have s...

Re: Lopez- "Kimi is in F1 for Money"!

Jimbox.... To suggest that this Lotus team is in anyway shape or form the great Lotus teams of Chapman, is just wrong in my opinion. The idea that you can buy a legendary F1 name and suggest that their history is yours as this "lotus" team has suggested... ie # of wins, is wrong on so many fronts.....
