Asobo, known today as the Microsoft Flight Simulator developer, created groundbreaking technology for large scale maps that was intended to be used in a high quality rally raid title. It was never released and ended up as FUEL, a post-apocalyptic open-world racing game. What happened?
Shortly after the release of Grand Prix Legends the sim racing community looked forward to another title that promised to offer a similar insight into historic racing. Trans-Am Racing ’68-’72 ultimately never released, a victim of a publishers shady dealings, but as a part of my research I uncovered a VHS of a never-released trailer for the game. Watch the trailer and read about what sim racing missed out on.

F1 2010 itself works fine for offline running with Windows 10 once you have disabled Microsoft’s ‘Games for Windows’ Live integration. The game will install it without asking, so you can disable it afterwards by dropping these dll files into the game directory (alongside f1_2010.exe and F1_2010_game.exe).
I did have to do quite a bit of graphics tuning to get it looking nice. There are config files in Documents\My Games\FormulaOne that you can open with a text editor.
