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?
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.
The 1994 McLaren MP4/9 was without the active suspension, power-assisted brakes, ABS traction control and Honda engines of the previous seasons MP4/8, and ultimately is considered an unsuccessful car. For the first time since 1980 McLaren failed to win a race, and this was mainly down to the Peugeot A4/A6 V10 engine and its chronic unreliability.
First seen in sim racing with GP2 (1996).
