Its an interesting one. Its difficult to say that Pirelli cheated - although they did help Mercedes to cheat - because they are in a monopoly situation. Mercedes - if the rumours turn out to be facts - DID cheat.

Trouble is, F1 needs Mercedes in the game - there are a number of teams struggling to survive as it is - so they can't be too hard on them.

Its not looking too good for the Silver Arrows is it? Ross Brawn to be the sacrificial lamb per chance?

Come on Lewis, Jenson, Paul and Max. If not, then Mark...or anyone but Vettel.....

Patrick, sorry but no. I am afraid I have no hand/eye co-ordination for those type of games . I have F1 for my little warspite's Wii, but only played it a couple of times. When I first got it I tried it without all the driver aids. Seriously, I couldn't keep it going in the right direction....on the straight

The guy who plays Nikki Lauda, looks and sounds just like him and the gorgeous Alexandra Maria Lara (Downfall) as Marlene Lauda is a superb choice. The cars look so authentic - the March, the Lotus, the McLaren, the Ferrari, the Ligier wow, just wow and the circuits.

If the race is on - can Rosberg win his home race and really begin a challenge for Vettel's crown?

Status: offline 		I have http://www.formula1-game.com/us/ and it is a most excellent game. You can customize the driving style so its not so difficult but still have a lot of fun with car setups too. The career mode is awesome, you start in the lower class of cars and you can easily work you way up to the top notch teams in a few seasons. Its a must have for a F1 fan IMO

I'm sure the Silver Arrows will be no match for the Red Bulls in race condition , but at least he got the pole

And this weekend we are off to Hungary, the scene of one of the greatest Grand Prix wins by anybody - Nigel Mansell 1989 and one of the unluckiest losses - Damon Hill in 1997 Would have won the only Grand Prix win for the, now defunct, Arrows team had he not had a car malfunction on the last lap.
