Most of them aren't really bugs... just incorrections.


Bugs

Unexisting pit wall in Germany, the cars go right through it
A really BAD bug is the one with qualifying, the pause button doesn't stop the time! Try this: be the 1st to do a lap, than pause the game, and wait... wait... wait till the clock runs down, although you will see the clock stoped. After the time is passed, qualifying is over and you got yourself a good place . Pause MUST stop the time in qualifying!
Can't confirm this one, but it seems that after Pit Crew relation drops to 0 stars, you can't get it up, no matter how many ":) Pit Crew", you get
NEW Friends Relationship - I miss a party with frinds and it goes down one start.. then i buy 3 Mini Coopers for my friends, and they dont even care, no change at all, BUG?


Incorrections

Monaco Pit Lane should be to the right of the track, not left, see HERE (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/56/Circuit_Monaco.svg)!
To be coherent, Valencia GP, is not the a second spanish GP, and should be called European GP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/European_Grand_Prix), this is the GP that used to be in the Nürburgring, probably caused the confusion with the German GP

I'm currently unemployed, (also a programmer btw :P), and if my knowledge is needed i'll be happy to help.

(not that my knowledge is much, but i do like F1 a lot, and played my fair share of F1 games: GP2, GP3, GP4, F1 Racing Challenge 99-02, F1 Racing Simulation 1 though 3, among other :redface:

My first was this, on a 8086 processor :) Grand Prix Circuit from Acollade back from 1988 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q-y8dvsLYJM), ahhh the memories :)

Wrong German Grand Prix, your track is the Nürburgring (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/55/N%C3%BCrburgring_-_Grand-Prix_Stecke.svg), Nürburgring is not used for the German GP since 1985 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/German_Grand_Prix), the correct track should be: Hokenheimring (http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/e5/Circuit_Hokenheimring.png)




I think the pit lane in Monaco is on the left more because it won't physically fit on the right, rather than an oversight.

According to http://www.formula1.com/races/in_detail/germany_814/circuit_diagram.html the 2009 German GP is at Nurburgring, not Hokehheim.

I stand corrected, thank you. I was used to see Hockenheim there, and wikipedia didn't told me i was wrong, anyway, good thing you corrected me. :)

Ok just did a 45 lap quick race in Australia and i lapped everybody about 2x but At the end of the laps it said 2nd was for instance 13 secs behind me when he was really over 1min.. Also everybody went into pits with 3 laps left and put the fuel right up.. They only need to top up so was pointless spending another 5secs putting fuel to top.
