Very detailed game. You need to research each part for your car, and research improvements for it over the season. You can do a lot in a day, offer contracts to your entire staff one by one, then select the next day and see who has accepted, rejected, or is holding station.

The level of detail in this game seems to very deep, maybe a little deeper than I would like, but I'm going to plug away some more.

Let me know how you get on. The season seems to go on forever, I can't seem to tune he car to each track - more luck than judgement. I have no idea how the camber etc affects the times on each track as once you are in practice mode - the car is locked down to wing angles only.
