Check out this for crack

[Cabinessance]

There was/is a wall on the Masta straight, before the kink, running on the left hand side of the road parallel with the road and railway line.

Pausing the film "Grand Prix" at 1hr 30min 43, during the helicopter shot will confirm this.

The same wall can also be viewed at 1hr 32min 26 sec and 1hr 33min. 56sec, where we have the pleasure of seeing it when wet.

[deancostello14]

So alien, yet so familiar, beautiful.

[BaiocoIslandFilms]

You just know that some twit is going to crash through the house at 2:02 when this is released

[wrmusic]

When will rFactor2 get released?

The track looks great, relaxing euro-nature

[Psythm]

This looks so amazing!

Really I'm considering moving from GT5 to this...just need to buy a PC.

Great work!!!

[hamiltonfan4eva]

where ist the concrete wall at masta ? :(

[ImageSpaceInc]

@hamiltonfan4eva What wall are you talking about? There was no wall at Masta in real life. Watch this video (you'll have to change the video id in the link, etc), and at the 3-minute mark you can see Masta: b-iKoIakI5k

[hamiltonfan4eva]

@ImageSpaceInc why is there on in GPL then ?

[ImageSpaceInc]

@hamiltonfan4eva For the same reason they have the modern Eau Rouge rather than a historically correct one: Because they chose to. Eau Rouge was probably about recognition of the turn in the community, the wall I have no idea. The video I gave you the ID for in the comment above is real footage from the real track. There was no wall.

[hamiltonfan4eva]

@ImageSpaceInc i see

[supercooled]

Is this what the old GPs use to race on? Looks really dangerous. I love it. I can only imagine how great it is to blast down those straights in a Porsche GT2. You guys at ISI do good work.

[nikosf3n]

My GOD... can't wait for it, can't wait... Just imagine 1991 and 2011 F1 mods on rf2... God help us!

[triptechable]

fapfapfapfapfapfapfapfapfap

[saintluke87]

I gotta say the more videos i see of RF2 the more im impressed. I hope this will give the whole community a bit of a pickmeup as its felt dead for the last few years... The way the car moves and sits on the road looks spot on. Awesome amount of feedback from a view with no dash or sound too. Hope it drives as good as it looks, keep up the top work guys.

[TzeffNL]

Wow! The Belgium track surely was different! And llong! I like the vivid, natural colors instead of adding shades of brown, or yello, like many "sims" do nowadays!

[bd271296]

It looks like iRacing.

[hejjagedu]

@RedBullRacingFan001 it doesn't matter what he means, because that's not what the comment says

[p165711]

I got a bit bored watching in silence and gave up 1/2 way through ..... but otherwise nice

[anacondastrike128]

Belgian GP 1966?

[ImageSpaceInc]

@anacondastrike128 Yes

[hejjagedu]

@ScuderiaFerrariNews "best ever" is simply RETARDED, since developers obviously will continue to progressively churn out better sims. Or are you saying that rFactor 2 > sims of year 2500?

[Bocky1234]

@hejjagedu Partypooper :D

[Whiskery1990]

Need for Speed for childrens Rfactor for Racers :))

[rFactorFCE]

Meanwhile..

What the fuck? That isn't Eau Rouge!

[MrMeMooMoo]

@rFactorFCE Not as we know it yes but Eau Rouge was tighter on the old circuit so this is the correct version.

[ImageSpaceInc]

@MrMeMooMoo Indeed.

[ImageSpaceInc]

@rFactorFCE This is correct. GPL, for example, used the modern Eau Rouge rather than the realistic one. This is realistic to the period.

[llovdw]

@rFactorFCE this is the old eau rouge, back in the old days

[MrCOLTSR2]

looks fantastic and drives awesome...

[ImageSpaceInc]

@MrCOLTSR2 Couldn't really drive fast though, at this point the replay system was AWOL so couldn't push. Recording while driving. :)

[Tarantino2000]

Cant wake 2 drive there with a F1 car^^

[anotaren79]

finally a track you just can drive around and cruise on!

[FeeLtheHertZ]

Looks sick! I think this will be the game that will give me a reason to sell my PS3 and Gran Turismo 5.

[MIAMetsfan809]

SPA <3

[Sprinterdrift]

Which corner is the Masta?

[woot123sexyparty]

@Sprinterdrift i'm pretty sure its at 1:53-1:57. it's a left-right kink.

[chris1980x]

I LOVE BUMPY TRACKS..

[Tomossj]

wow... you can feel every bump, every hole :O

This will be good sim.

[AsAngelsFall221]

I noticed some aliasing issues in 720p. While I know not many people need high end graphics to play this, but will there be an option for us high-end PC users to completely get rid of this? I use level 6 AA in rFactor, and there are still "jaggies". Graphics are the only thing taking away from the experience and immersion for me at this point in time. Better textures and more AA options will go a long way for a game in 2011. :)

[indoshakermaker]

I like codemasters f12010 for its graphic... but i sure hope its got rFactor's physic. Cant wait for rfactor 2

[joxphay]

fatamorgana on the track?

[bobruce5]

smashingly realistic - well done!

[johannes914]

I can't wait to drive on this track .

[rembol92]

goood old spa :)

[hcrun]

SUPERB!!

[killer2010diesel]

when will u release the track?

[theangrygimp]

If you guys ever have time to read this, will there be a course designer with the release, or will we need to use something like Bobs Track Builder? Anyways, it looks Astounding. If there is a system for point to point races, then I will be in heaven. RBR has been my favorite sim for some time, and I think it will finally find a spiritual successor in rFactor 2 finally. I really like rFactor 1, but for road racing. When 2 comes out, I'm going to start working on making some rally stages.

[aantiawp]

to be honest i don't give a shit about graphics, i just want the most realistic physics and audio lol

[preston4eva12]

If this keeps everything that made rfactor great (handling/physics and moddability)and adds in weather/graphics etc it could very well clean up the PC racing market

[Mrhellsy]

OH old spa!

[mckseal]

I prefer iracing's graphics

(i am not biased, i play neither but i am curious)

iracing is such a money grabber though, just annoying.

[xStalkerxx]

This looks so freaking awesome and smooth!! and compared to GT, this really has an real speed sensation!

[Ryosuke324]

very very nicei cant wait for the game to come, but i hope will be easy to mod in the game!

[MisterGasMan]

It has a very real, bir raw feeling. very good. I bet it is the ambient occlusion that gives this feeling, i like it!

[X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X8X]

There was a screenshot of a Lola t70 at Spy Francorchamps 1967 postet at virtualr.net, maybe this is the car, I hope it. The old LM-cars (Ford GT, Porsche 917, Ferrari 512,...) would be great for this game !!!

[isanub]

what car is used?

[MaRcIu27]

after getting g27 I will buy this for sure.

[TheRacer120]

That looks almost exactly like the movie Grand Prix from 1966. Congrats.

[djtriptech]

An incredible sense of world immersion just in this video alone! God knows how good it must be to play! I look forward to this release!

[RTDragonCommando]

I just got chills watching this! It's been a long time since I watched 1966's Grand Prix, and this brought back some memories, and makes me wish I could have driven these types of tracks myself.

I really can't wait for this to come out now, I really love open road racing like this and I don't see enough of it in racing sims, more tracks like this NEED to be made.

[slushomatic]

why oh why did they stay with DX9 no improvement on GFX at all. DX11 would at least help with frames sense the induction of tessalation.

[burnviktm]

I am chomping at the bit ready to spend my money on this game. Q4 may have been a bit ambitious?

[GeneralRIMT]

personally that looks very graphically stunning :) cant wait for this!

[Marauder1981]

I would like to add on: SimBin can pack their stuff and go home if they don´t work really really hard :P

[Marauder1981]

I hope the Force Feedback will be even better than SimBins GTR Evlution.

[David92XR]

This is Great!!!! Keeep on ISI!!!

[STEVEWHACKEM]

Looks GREAT!

[glockutube]

OMG this is awesome

whens rFactor 2 coming out

[2Smelly4You]

Gorgeous! Nice wide track, looks like a lot of fun to drive at. The sideline cars could use some reflections though, but i guess that could affect performance quite a bit.

[dimebagplan]

I can imagine how much work is that.

great job.

[brunoiwa]

It looks like GTR2

[5855brot]

Skip the cartoon-like cars parked along the track, they are destroying the whole real-like experience.

[richiespeedisback]

@5855brot

But back in the day when this track is based, that is exactly what it was like, cars and people lined the sides of the tracks, very dangerous, but it adds a nice style to the sim :)

[Str8representing]

When will the game release?

[DJChappie001]

LOL, first corner is Eau Rouge XTREME!

[Gin132456]

will the new 3d textures and models used in rfactor 2 prohibit the easiness of making tracks? because rfactor was so easy to make tracks for, but now we will need more detailed models and such im afraid people wont be as excited to make new tracks like before :(

[Simonmall719]

wow, excellent job indeed, i can't wait....gonna be fantastic

[porschiste911]

You caught the spirit of the old Spa! Really good job! RF2 is gonna be amazing!

[theangrygimp]

I'm Stunned. This looks fantastic, Can't wait for RF2!

[Hornet85]

I'm a huge F1 fan and Spa is my favorite track of all. I had no idea the track look like this way back then. Looks like a modern F1 car can go flat out through the entire circuit except for the last sharp turn.

I wonder if there is any mod out there that puts modern F1 cars in all the old tracks like this one. Would have been fun.

[timickan]

@Hornet85

you will be able to do this in RF2. I have raced a modern F1 car on this track (GPL conversion) and you are right, flat stick all the way. I dislike the modern tracks compared to old classics like this, but the cars have outgrown them.

[derbigpr500]

@Hornet85 Actually a modern F1 car would crash in about 2 seconds at full speed because this track was VERY bumpy.

[Einhanderkiller]

I like how the roads aren't totally smooth like in other racing games, e.g., Gran Turismo.

[derbigpr500]

@Einhanderkiller Gran Turismo doesnt have bumpy roads because they dont have a good enough physics engine to make the bumps, and grip on bumpy roads feel realistic. Thats why they make all their tracks flat.

[altek91]

but where is the sun?!?!?!?! and the motion blur?!?!?! is not more real man...

[Rusikindusik]

looks deliciously

[spooky78]

ohh by the way..if you like this video maybe you have to watch the movie named Grand Prix (1966)

[spooky78]

looks like a sunday trip with our new car..not a race..:)

[JochemHraback]

I c'ant wait, plzzzzz, tell us you'll relase Rf2 for Christmas 2010 !! :p

[ocvcCREATIVEARTS]

Nice long blast through the country. I would say that the road texture needs to break every now. If you look at it you have 3 strips of tarmac that run for the whole length of the track, interspersed with surface grazing. It would be highly unlikely for 1950's /60's tarmac layers to do it all in one go!

Also some of the telegraph/pylon textures looked 2D, but that could be youtube.

I'm a trackbuilder so i know how hard it is:

[ocvcCREATIVEARTS]

Check out my track Bloxham Park its only V1.0 in the video, it looks much more detailed now! Download from rFactor central if you want.

[Welshguy78]

Cheating has ruined most of the league races i've driven in. You have 15-20 guys all within a second of each other, then you have 2 or 3 guys who are like 3 seconds a lap faster. It's so obviously cheating, either through "alien" setups or some form of rewritten code. Fingers crossed RF2 will eliminate both those problems as it is destroying the majority of online racing leagues.

[TheCold696]

Nice, Track detail is alot better. But thats not that important to me as a server admin for 6 leagues. Main thing for me is a better cheat detection system.

[qazqaz112]

@TheCold696 is cheating even possible with a racing game ?

[JoeytheHDK]

Yow. I want it.

[quipzz]

Awesome - congratulations - excellent modelling of Eau Rouge. It was effectively an entirely different turnback back in the 60s (in GPL it's modelled more like today).

IMO the 3D trackside objects are looking good - anyway, the track and sim engine is much more important. Keep up to the good work!

[steve2000xxl]

The physics look "sharp".

[mclaren777]

rFactor 2 is already looking better than I expected. Keep up the good work!

[Stormik123]

not so awesome, but not ugly.. still much better then RF1.. and it's ok for sim game.. will buy it for sure

[MartinhoAUT]

@Stormik123 Not awesome?! Why? Do you know the track who are realised? This Version of Spa is the best ive ever seen.

Forget new Spa, with f****** new busstop chicane. This is pure motorsport on the fastest roadtrack in GP history. Perdro Rodriquez on BRM drove on that curcuit in 1970 faster than in Monza. Over 240kmh average a lap.

[Stormik123]

@MartinhoAUT i talked about overal graphic quality.. Track is well designed and looks ok, but details around track are not very impressive.. look at those buildings and other details around track... they are pretty ugly ;) still 1000% better than RF1 so i'm satisfied.. and will buy this game

[MartinhoAUT]

@Stormik123 Ok, i understud. The graphicquality cant be so good on youtube. Theres only a 720 resolution. When u see this on your 22" monitor, i think it will be look much greater. ;)

[KameSenninKun]

@MartinhoAUT It can, watch more video en youtube dude ;) This video is simply in an awfull quality !! But the final render seems great anyway.

[jam1e007]

looks good, cant wait to play it :)

[adrianstealth]

Really fantastic track surfaces are spot on, exceptional quality

[RedSunCZE]

AWESOME!!!

[decep3107]

Want!!

[emifisa]

the track is perfect...not only for texture and grapich but more for the aspalth the road is perfect with this quote

[MartinhoAUT]

Great track. I cant believe this vid. Iam a old GPL enthusiast an in know the GPL track as well. But this is amazing.

[Escaflowne31]

Good job !! Is a very good reproduction, Nice work !!!

[tokarev17]

OMG, this will be the best simulation !! Can't wait till it comes :D

[Porsche9174Ever]

ISI, give me this game!! :P

I love all the details alongside the track!! Although, it looks a bit cartoonish due to the bright and over saturated textures. But, this game is going to be a masterpiece!!

I've been to the Spa Six-hours a month ago and on the way back we drove on the old Spa roads. Most parts of the old circuit are still there :D

[ssatt]

Im so buying this!!

cant wait

[Chrisuu]

Whell how come the real spa valley seems much deeper.

And the real Eau rouge is much steeper.

Just wondering the track still looks very nice

[ZE0SPantera]

+1 for ISI

[vcorp75]

Wow this sound very amazing, keep up the work. (can't wait to buy rfactor 2)

[MetalproF1]

@vcorp75 What sound??

[vcorp75]

@MetalproF1

Yes sound (but not audio) like wow

[NOSwaster13]

The quality of ISI tracks from rFactor 1 compared to rFactor 2 is like comparing Night to Day.

Fantastic work, ISI! This is a work of art!

[MetalproF1]

@NOSwaster13 I do not see much difference.., maybe some details.

[L77kim77l]

It might be matter of taste, but I like this style much more than the "overpolished " Codemaster games (no bashing). This track looks like it's done from artists... You are awesome!!

[quipzz]

@L77kim77l

I can only second that (with Codemasters bashing *g*)

[dfragglet]

@L77kim77l I totally agree, codemasters do make a nice dramatic style but it really isn't needed. Live for speed, rFactor get it done and without stressing every part of your system.

[MagicAyrtonforever]

@L77kim77l I agree, Codemasters stopped making decent race sims after Toca 2!

[Denon13101]

Beautiful columns ))

[ATTI0822]

Great job ISI.

[Tayesin]

Very nice to look at. I'm excited.

[MDRFactor]

The members at online Racing Australia are frothing at the mouth to get RF2....bring it on.

[roadhog29389]

Looks brilliant, i look forward to putting cars into people's loungerooms :)

[petehawkmusic]

Love it! Can't wait to get RF2. Keep up the great work!!!  :-D

[CharlesBr0ns0n]

An amazing step forward!

[daveao686]

Wow even heat haze effect in the distance.

[maciexp]

i dont really care about the graphics to much TBH , i really hope FF effects will be on iR level or better 8]

[mudinveins]

im soooooooooo buying this when it comes out... just give me one awesome endurace gt category and i'll need nothing else for yeaaaaaars

i shed a tear of happyness

[maciexp]

iRacing are mental thieves

[steve2000xxl]

i like it. do want.

[unrealnoise]

omg!

[ShizoluckyShizostar]

COWS!

[tomfuegue]

This video looks really amazing, iRacing... still the best with this upcoming release???

[kingdong4]

@tomfuegue iracing can suck my fucking dick

[thylegion]

Shit, I have to upgrade my PC :P

[GeraArg]

Amazing, just amazing...

[DivebombMovies]

AWESOME

[tomfuegue]

IMPRESIONANTE!
