    Tracks models come from real tracks. Then bumps on the road happens where they would happen in real formula One (on tv the are clear when sparks comes from the bottom of the car). You can select the ”high” setting for chassis in the setup screen, if you find them annoying. Generally speaking, apart the “squashing” of the screen, bumps shouldn’t affect car handling too much...

    Ok thanks I always set my car to low I thought it made them faster. Don’t ask...
    I’m only 13 and don’t know much about cars

    Also I think that’s really cool how accurate the roads and stuff are

    During the day I am a mechanical engineer, I spent the last year of my master's degree on vehicle dynamics, that's what I am trying to transfer in my games :) And yes! You are right: lowering the chassis will lower the centre of gravity of the car. This helps to reduce the roll of the car in turns, for an higher lateral acceleration... but I don't want to go off topic, if you love cars, one day maybe you'll study all of these subjects... So try to love Math at school :)

    -A new switch in Settings allows players to disable camera tilt.
    -A new controls layout has been added: virtual analog stick for steering.
    -You can now enable racing line.
    -Improved "Easy" mode will diminish "stuck cars moments";
    -Bahrain-Shangai switched menu buttons is fixed;
    -Mispelled Bahrain is fixed;
    -"Time Attack" label appearing after a race is fixed :)

    Fantastic! That all sounds awesome...
    One other thing I have noticed is that the touch area is very small when I try to select the settings. When I try to hit the settings cog, I keep getting sent to iTunes.. it is activating the “more games” button..

    Thanks for the feed! That menu UI is mostly “placeholder”, but I’ll keep in mind this information when finishing it ;)

    Something else! Austria maybe a bit too bumpy, or at least the cars reaction to the bumps .... I just hit a bump on the straight after turn 3 and my wheel came off!! Quite funny actually...

    I see it from the beta logs and I appreciate it :)
    ;)
    good news! I’m uploading right now the new beta. Generally when you upload an update of the first beta, it shouldn’t take too much to get live.
    There’s everything noted in the change log above, plus some other bug fix. Also, I had to remove race line (it seems to be too much resource intensive at this time..).

    In fact I’m playing it right now, or was until I wrote this. I get more and more fond of the game every race and I’m still getting better at the brakes and everything. there actually easy to use now that I have practiced a lot. I love this game so much
    And I’m excited for the update sounds like the update will be great
