Gamer on the left, Schumacher on the right.


Lap of Suzuka.


Even trees, grandstands etc are all spot on....

Wow!    On the small screen it's hard to pick what's real and what's the game.   Amazing.

Some of the digital signboards are clearer than the film.  Whoever the player is, they don't do too badly against the champion.
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott

I know a guy who races online with the F1 simulator that racers like The Schumacher 's etc use. He uses a wheel, pedals plus three large screens. They have race teams and the best of the best are 'commissioned' by team bosses. They fly to different cities around Australia for dinner presentations as well as collect prize monies... He tried to get me to join but at 52 I could justify sitting behind my desk c/w steering wheel etc for hours and hours as it does take considerable skills to race against these guys.
I jus wanna ride my bike
