F1 Racing Simulation

Formula 1 cars are super-fast cars with special tires, suitable for indoor races. However, the acceleration and control of the car is done by the driver, in whose role we have the opportunity to play thanks to the game F1 Racing Simulation. The idea of the game creators was to create a realistic Formula 1 racing simulator, so the production of the program used the experience of Renault F1, a team that won the Formula 1 World Championship five times in a row. To help create the program Ubi Soft invited, among others, the following people Christian Blum, Renault Sport's chief engineer-mechanic and specialists from the Williams-Renault.

The game was released in the era of graphic accelerators, so we can admire a good quality visual setting with various effects of blurring, fog, smoke, rain, the view of the grass "mown" by cars or the flames of burning engines. The soundtrack is also not badly presented. In order for the cars to make the sounds closest to reality, the authors of the game recorded the "roar" of the original Renault Sport V10 engine, and all radio messages are also authentic. Well-dedicated driving physics, combined with impeccably modelled cars and tracks, gives a realistic impression of participating in Formula 1 races. The game offers all sixteen tracks from the 1996 season and access to 22 models of cars. With Formulas 1 we can race not only in single player mode. Thanks to split-screen mode (split screen) we can play two people on one computer, and having access to the Internet we can play multiplayer with people from all over the world.

In the game we have access to numerous modes, from detailed training for the most reluctant drivers, through various championships, tournaments and single races, to Grand Prix events. The player can, of course, choose the level of difficulty corresponding to their own skills. And so on the Easy (amateur) level, driving realism is drastically reduced, and the computer helps us to throw gears and brake on bends. However, even with such facilitation it is not easy to master the car, which makes the F1 Racing Simulation a quite demanding game.
