i came.
beautiful team work.
why would you drive a car like that on the street where you have to keep to the speed limit.
i would bring that thing to nurburgring every freaking day to drive it for hours.
And as we all know, it will remain in testing long after it's been released.
Is there no hope? I want to get into an F1 game, but every year i hear about how many problems there is with them, so im always put off

Just hunt down a copy a Grand Prix 4, that was the last F1 game worth anything. And even that was a shadow of Crammond's earlier attempts.
Not while Codemasters has the license. 2011 had it's fair share of problems and was quite alright, but nowhere near as many issues as 2012. Probably the best one for you to get into unless you run Crossfire, in which case you'll be forced to run in DX9 like I was (until I fluked how to get it running, but that was about 10 months after it was released and ZERO acknowledgement from Codemasters about the issue).
Last I heard (I think), they managed to get the license for the next few years as well... so I'm going to give up even trying, even when 2013 is discounted to within an inch of it's life (unless they include something like team orders, in which case I'd buy just for the novelty value).
If 2011 on ps3 was 60fps it would have been pretty damn good, the rain issues notwithstanding. I too won't buy another F1 game made by Codeinterns.
The guy has uploaded every season review since the 70s!
I've downloaded the ones from 1991 onwards, slowly working my way through them.
Holy motherload!
It is pretty amazing, they're 2-4 hours long, with a lot of them being over the 3 hour mark.
Great stuff on the iPad for the bus to and from work.
Just use JDownloader if you want them localy

Yeah, no. I don't think I'll be continuing with that forced installation of adware on my pc thanks jdownloader installer!
Why on earth would people try and force this crap on you? Unbelievable. The opt-out toolbar was bad enough, the next one gives you no choice at all.
It does, it is just gray so it looks like you can't select it. But yeah, not convinced.
With few data from winter testing, and few testing times over the year team are forced to use Fridays FP´s to try out new car parts. FER is expected to bring a whole lot of new parts to China, and WIL to bring the new exhaust.
AMS has collected fotos of changes, that have already been made, I´ll post a few here:
New exhaust an RAI car in Sepang, that GRO will also get for China GP
New end plates on both LOT front wings
Unusual six piece barge boards on both LOT.
Handsaw usage at MCL, they hat to cut 1cm due to more than expected tyre shape change in corners and when breaking.
More pics, also from FER and MER, seen here.

Jdownloader itself is fine. It's a shame every piece of decent freeware seems to be going down the path of nasty, opt-out adware these days. Google 'jdownloader adware' and read the rage on their forums. I don't think I'd want to touch it now either.
I think it all went to crap about mid-2012. You can get a Feb 2012 version here: http://www.videohelp.com/tools/JDownloader/old-versions
And even older ones here: http://www.filehorse.com/download-jdownloader/5609/old-versions/
I once grabbed the 1976-2010 reviews in a single, monstrous 40GB torrent. No longer active sadly.

The TVDB for XBMC has an F1 Season Review section, with art and what not.
You can opt out. I've had no issues with JDownloader during and since installing it.

I usually just run applications that I am unsure about in its own VM. I haven't used JDownloader for a while so I am unsure how it will run.
Guys, just get a downloader plugin for Firefox or whatever. I have one for Waterfox called DownloadHelper and it works on Vimeo just fine 
That guys site is a goldmine. I want to leech as much as I can from there before it's taken down... I've started from the last page and am working forwards.

Yep...I have to archive this to have material for F1less periods in the year.
Last year I had found a channel on justin.tv that was continuosly full F1 races from the 80's and 90's (usually the whole season during the period of 2-3 days). That was awesome but it got eventually taken down by the FIA...

There's one that's still going strong. Quote for more info.
XBMC + JTV plugin = never a dull moment in my loungeroom. Love it.
Awesome! Thanks for sharing!
Mmm.... 90's Monza. Thanks!

It's full of problems but F1 2011 has to be the better game of the 4 they made thus far. I used to spend hours on end just racing and making my own objectives and for the most part it worked. I got fucked a few times by my race engineer but that was the extended of the problems.
It's still really fun to drive as Rosberg from the back of the line in Japan and try and do better than him in real life etc. I think I've spent around 50 hours of just racing, no career.

Yeah, free download manager is working fine with it. Goldmine is definitely the right word. This stuff is amazing!

Good one, thanks.
Some Monza '95 going on now. Half (D. Bell) of my favorite announcing duo (J. Watson and Bell).
OMG, thanks for posting! This is just awesome, like everyone else I'm downloading these asap. This is especially soo soo good because I just started to get in F1 starting with the 2010 season.

Building their own chassis wasn't exactly a big hit, so I'm guessing they'd follow Honda's lead.
Lexus Lotus = Lettuce. I'm down with that.
Well, through unfortunate circumstances. For both drivers. :/ Two of my favorite drivers, both out of F1. At least Kimi is around.
Back in 2010 I never thought that Kobayashi would be Ferrari driver before Kubica and yet it really happened.
Why would you do that. You can download Vimeo files directly.
Toyota/Lexus what-what?
Is Darrel Eastlake an international personality, or are you Australian?No worries gents
Expect some cheeky Sky content on race weekends too.
Rad. I've just MacGuyvered a thing on my work PC so my iPhone connects to our "test" wifi network (direct internet connection, no work proxy) and I have a VM running that connects straight to that. Hopefully JTV plays alright in a VM!
Awesome! DC about to get his first win.

The source of that news item is an article published on April 1st, so make of that what you will.
Aussie here.
HIGH FIVE
Those segmented barge boards look interesting.With few data from winter testing, and few testing times over the year team are forced to use Fridays FP´s to try out new car parts. FER is expected to bring a whole lot of new parts to China, and WIL to bring the new exhaust.

Dazza should be an international personality, his is big enough.
In all possible ways. His personality is the size of China.
Haha, this is true. It was funny watching him interview Webber prior to the start of the 2002 Australian GP. Probably the closest we'd have these days to a Murray Walker personality-wise, but without the knowledge (though MW didn't always show that side of him very well either ).
).So I can throw 30 video links in, hit one button and walk away.
