we can say tons of shhh, about how to make this game better but the true is Codemasters don't give a shit, I rather see this franchise handle over to another game developer, You as a Gamer wonder why makers of such good games as Grid , came up with so simple game.- f1 for pc was shit, will f1 2011 deliver? I don't think so.--
Hey man, they weren't reenacting a Renault win, it was actually a podium in Melbourne, I dare say he did some fist pumping crossing the line too. Nonetheless, I love what you've done here, small issue. I laughed like crazy at your Mark Webber 2010 Singapore reenactment.
My guess is safety car will be a simulation setting you can turn on and off, only for single player.
As for who controls the car, when you get waved yellows in traffic in F1 2010, you still control your car, so whats to say this will be any different?
Will have to wait and see I suppose, but this would be the only viable way to go about adding it in.
@Maddo03 Safety car will only feature in races of 20% length or above, and yes there is an option to turn it off. It will be available in both offline and online play.
@Kangarillas Awesome :) do you know whether or not the player is still in control under the safety car? If you get to play a game with the safety car, try doing a Vettel trick and slowing down just before a long straight. See if that gets you an illegal blocking penalty or not :P Would suck if it did.
@Maddo03 I don't know this 100%, but the developers have been quoted as saying that ''it won't just be a cut scene'' when the safety car is deployed, so I would expect to still have some element of control. Less than a month until we get to play it for ourselves!
Thanks to all you idiots who asked for the safety car. Now I get to spend countless minutes driving around at 60mph in a line. Drive a Nascar sim its the most boring thing ever. Whay ask for something that makes the game more boring. Thanks again!
@metzgerov Codemasters have said that you won't get more than one safety car in a race, and it adds realism which is one of the things that makes the game fun. Stop bitching
If Codies don't allow player control under the safety car, people will bitch and if they do allow control, people will bitch about penalties and online screw ups. It's a no win situation adding the safety car. I hope I'm proven wrong but I doubt it.
the safety car work by if theres a crash on the racing line. The safety car will be deployed and when it has caught the leader it will stay out for one full lap then will return in. Thumbs up so Alan can see this!
I agree on the safety car, not sure what it adds to the game and think codies have left themselves open. They will only get people screaming them about delta's. Very good to see they do listen and are willing to add features based on what the community wants
I love the way they put some moments from the real races into the trailer, like Petrov's flight (1:02), Hamilton and Button accident (1:38), Button winning Vettel (1:44)...
I agree re: the SC. It's a gimmick. I'd much rather the handling and AI were spot on. From my experience following a SC in a game is a nightmare. It will be especially problematic if they give you penalties for passing other cars under the SC.
will there be a feature to save replays of online races, love using it on forza 3 to save some of the best online times and think it would be gr8 on this?
@retrofly9 Yeah, but we've seen next to nothing showing them in an actual game replay. I never trust trailers to give me the full, in-game picture, as they are usually canned.
I've been waiting two months to register on the forums, and still registration is unavailable, lol. -_-
So I've been reading/lurking there a lot, just unable to comment.
The game is looking great and I hope it really is. Not sure why people fuss so much about the SC. It's barely been seen this season and with the way crashes are handled in the game I don't see what the point is in having it. I get that in real racing it can sometimes make a difference in the outcome but that is so seldom that it's hardly worth the frustration if they have it coming out all the time slowing the action down so much it makes the game boring.

Agree whole heartedly about the safety car. I simply don't understand why people want it. Claims of 'authenticity' don't really wash when there are other more important things that could be addressed first in the pursuit of realism.
ok the music doesn't go with the trailer its F1 not some supercar race but anyway, i hope we get the same menu music and loading screen music from 2010 it was nice and relaxing
Love the way all the highlights of the season so far have been shown =D
