F1 Racing Championship

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

F1 Racing Championship was a game published by Ubisoft in 2001. It featured all the 22 drivers and 11 teams from the 1999 Formula One World Championship, as well as the 16 tracks (including the brand new Sepang Circuit. The game featured great graphics and realistic handling. At the time, it was facing steep competition by the ever popular Grand Prix 3. This meant that it didn't sell too well. The lack of intelligent AI and poor damage made it pretty unpopular with gamers and fans of Formula One. The soundtrack was recorded by British band Garbage, the main audio sounds in the menu were replicated in Racing Simulation 3, brought out a couple of years later, which again didn't sell too well due to licensing issues.
