Better known today as the developer of Skyrim and Fallout, Bethesda once had a well-respected racing game franchise and were deep into development of a licensed Skip Barber Racing title that never released.

Shawn Nash is a behind-the-scenes pioneer responsible for SODA Off Road Racing’s incredible physics, Papyrus’ graphical advancements and iRacing’s use of laser scan data for the physical track surfaces.

Codemasters released v1.06 for F1 2021 today and it includes a bunch of fixes to problems that severely affected it’s performance on my PC. These issues really did put a damper on my review, which honestly made it hard to look past the faults to see the positives.
