Re-live the gladiatorial battles between Michael Schumacher and David Coulthard or tear up the record books and take an outsider to World Championship glory. With in-depth behind the scenes technical support from the Orange Arrows and Benetton Formula One teams never before has the game player been able to enter the world of Formula One racing in such detail and authenticity.

F1 Championship prides itself on being the first Formula 1 game to feature the tracks and teams of the 2 FI season. It certainly is the first ever Formula 1 simulation to be available on the Mac.

Find out here about all the precision, beauty, and speed of the world's leading open-wheel motorsport.

F1 CS 2 is the only officially endorsed F1 game to feature the 2 teams, liveries and driver line-ups and enabling the player to customise the grids to match the actual races. Detailed set-up options and a realistic physics engine will please the purists, while many of these options can be turned off to appeal to arcade racers. F1 CS 2 leaves all previous F1 games on the starting grid with its realistic, adrenaline-pumping interpretation of the world's greatest motorsport.

The recreation of the tracks is remarkably accurate. The additional detail in the mid and far horizon adds much more starch than gamers have seen in previous F1 titles. Tracks like Monza, Spa and Monaco look much more detailed. The sound in this game is incredible too - the engine sounds are truly… realistic.

The game is chock-full of modes and options, ranging from a full season run in which you hope to capture the championship, to a single race for fun, as well as a time trial and two-player modes. If you are a beginner you should consider the Driver's Training course. Just about every mode other than the quick start lets you customize all of the rules and settings to your preference. In addition, F1 CS 2 lets you pick from all of the real drivers, cars and tracks featured in the actual real-life F1 CS 2 racing-season schedule. While all these added bells and whistles are certainly nice to have, F1 CS 2's performance on the track is really what the game is all about.
