Not Any More It Isn'tĮA's decision to quit the F1 sim business has left it with one final throw of the dice and rather than make a concerted attempt to go out on a massive high, it has instead opted to bung together a sort of compilation of the previous year's efforts and shove it out of the door post haste so as to get on with other projects. And funnily enough, just as Montoya's licence has expired, so too has EA's licence to make money simulating the world of Formula One, with F1 Challenge representing the last time digital drivers will hear the annoying 'E! A! Sports! It's in the game!' sneered at them before they start fiddling with their camshafts.
Irony Can at times be pretty, well, ironic really.Īdorning the cover of F1 Challenge 99-02 is none other than Colombian 'bad boy' racer Juan Pablo Montoya, no doubt decided upon before the recent revoking of his driving licence for speeding.
