Wooow. This looks nice! The textures on that Benneton look to be pretty high resolution. Just hope the physics will be as good as the graphics. :)
So, now we have F1 1989, 1991 and 1994 all coming out for rFactor in the next foreseeable future. Can’t wait! ;) Those are among my favorite years of Formula One.
