    The cars handle superbly well and you'll soon realise there's no better F1 game around than this - even Michael Schumacher would be happy.

    The result is a game that casual racers can handle, while real F1 geeks can turn all the realism up to full and enjoy one of the most competent F1 sims this side of the PC. [Sept 2002, p.150]

    Yes, this is another installment of a long-running series, but it is by far the best, most enjoyable one of them all.

    Its similarity to last year's game could put off players who've seen an done this all before. [Sept 2002, p.31]

    There's a lot to do in this game but why do EA insist on imposing a speed limit when the yellow flag comes out? Where in the FIA rulebook is that one listed? Please dont put it on the 2003 game!… Expand

    I am confident that it is impossible to get away from the grid start without knocking your front wing off, and the other cars don't slow down for yellow flags when you have to, frustrating, and on easy mode you could be the Jaguar car and beat the Ferrari in the race, The slip streaming idea is brilliant though !… Expand
