Lack of homework, Felipe: “Gillie Villeneuve x M Häkkinen = Same :eek:”
GillES was never world champion… Sadly.

But as F1Racer says, it’s not possible to compare drivers from different eras. It can’t be done rightfully. Hakkinen was a great, great F1 driver.

felipe: So you mean…Jim Clark x J Button = Same
Ayrton Senna x K Raikonnen = Same
Alan Prost x F Alonso = Same
Nelson Piquet x D Hill = Same
Niki Lauda x Jacques Villeneuve = Same
Gillie Villeneuve xM Häkkinen = Same
Jackie Stewart x L Hamilton = Same

Guess we watch F-1 with VERY different views and expectations! Those were champs who won titles by their natural gifted abilities against other amazing drivers not by the lack of real drivers! Also if you didn’t watch 50s 60s 70s 80s early 90s races your view is acceptable imho! But I rather watch boring races with little skill drivers than watch amazing races skilled drivers but with fatal accidents!

Congratulations for completely misunderstanding and twisting my meaning.
The only expectation I have when watching an F1 race is excitement and maybe some hard wheel to wheel racing. Doesn’t always happen these days, but the expectation is still there.

What I meant by deserving is that whoever ends the season with the most points, takes the title. Whoever does that is no less deserving of the accolade of world champion than anyone else who came before them.
Today drivers cannot go back in time and drive in the 80’s or 90’s and can only compete in the environment that is given to them.
If F1 is more boring today then thats not the drivers fault. The only debatable factor in my view is how hard a driver had to work to earn his championship.
Did Button deserve his title this season any less than Senna did in 1988 ?
I don’t think so. For sure Senna arguably had a more competitive field but is that Buttons fault ?

Oh and FYI, all drivers have won on their natural ability to drive. Just wanting to dispel that urban myth that only the guys from the past had the natural talent. It was a whole different time back then and comparisons between then and today is impossible.

93’s are are strickley going to be released as a League mod in the same way as 1991 was before. If your looking for more info please go to . http://www.f1-sim-racer.co.uk

F1Racer: I don’t see how those drivers you mention are any less deserving than those that came before them. The drivers don’t make the rules.

There is also still a 85 mod to finish.

There is no way I subscribe to this theory that 1993 was the last real year of F1.
Thats crazy. F1 is a progressive and developing animal. Is it because F1 got safer and therefore somehow became more boring ? What about the 50’s to the 70’s then ? People were dying all over the place. Was that better ?

The opening jingle is ripped from none other than United Artists Picture Inc.

Yeah thats it ! :)

I knew I’d heard that before somewhere.

Personally, I easily grow tired on videos with 5+ minutes of pure gameplay, cockpit view driving around a track. That can be a bit boring to watch and I feel like it gives it all away. What you do here is quite cool, having a couple seconds of gameplay and sounds mixed with simple black frames. It teases and makes me wonder even more how the mod will drive. However, I do have to agree, the intro jingle was a bit too much…

I too thought this was a great idea when I started out video editing to give my productions a nice front-end, but I grew out of it the first time I saw what I’d done. I suggest the author grows up too, in the nicest of ways I mean that.

F1Racer: Hmmm I recognise that intro music.Isn’t that something you hear at the beginning of a load of movies ?

Ironically the more overtly cinematic these trailers get, the more cynical I get.

Anyway.. nice to have another retro F1 year. Fans of this era will be spoilt for choice soon.
