    I only want this car because IT WON THE SWEDISH GP! Now we only need the track because we already have the fan car and we need the circuit it raced at to make it more immersive

    yes another airport track. AMS2 will eventually have Cleveland, Galeao, Mendig, Anderstop, Sebring and Heathrow airports in the game. And an aeroplane dlc pack.

    Another reason - beside partnering with the fan car could make AMS2 stand more out against the opposition - is that the driving experience with the 4 small front wheels is amazing.
    I have been "driving" this car in some mod called Seven ... (something) made to a game/sim I cannot remember.
    But looking out from the cockpit to the 4 small fat wheels which moved in coordinated order was pretty fantastic.
    If only Reiza...:p

    The P34 would be a nice addition but I'm not sure if it'd really fit in the F-Retro G1 class since that class seems to be based on the 1974 season and the P34 raced in 1976/77 (That being said, to be fair AMS1 had the '74/75 Brabham up against the '76 Fittipaldi so I don't really mind not keeping 100% accuracy historically, I'm just nerdy about this stuff :p)

    I mean, to be fair I do silly things like F-Retro Gen 2 vs Gen 3, and a half distance Japanese Grand Prix with the AI, the race came down to a G3 car passing a G2 car for the win between the final chicane and the finish line.

    How about the lesser known Williams FW08B? The car that actually got 6 wheelers banned from F1

    Has there been any mention of the street car focused DLC that was part of the original AMS2 plan?

    It has 3 cars and the best case scenario is that it will arrive this month.

    Totally uneducated guesses with absolutely no evidence to support my claims:

    1. Some McLaren thing, probably 720s or the special variants of that same chassis.
    2. Corvette C8 Z06
    3. Lambo

    Looks like my November prediction that we´d only get the missing features from 1.4.3 like tyre limits and the old Ring version by end of year has aged like fine milk, considering the Christmas holidays are just a week away...

    We know Reiza likes waiting until the end of the month to make sure everything is as good as it can be. So let's not loose hope yet! We're just barely halfway through the month

    Haha. Oh no - that car is too ugly :D
    But to further elaborate my story about the Tyrell 6 wheeler then check the pic.
    Because they even inserted 2 small windows so the driver could entertain himself by watching the 4 small front wheels march in step :D

    The Tyrrel was a design that fitted much better within regs as the idea was to reduce the problems of getting clean air over the front wheels. They were smaller than the other competitors' front wheels too so there wasn't a huge difference in contact surface area as I understand it.

    The Williams was just like MORE REAR GRIP and people got upset. :p

    The easy guesses are the MP4/4, MP4/6 and the BT52 since they've been teased for a long while now and all won titles in the hands of Brazilians...as for the rest I'm honestly not sure: maybe the Fittipaldi could return from AMS1 too and, while I'm not sure on it, I could see them adding something from Barrichello or Massa's car history too since they already have the licenses to their names thanks to SCB

    Sadly, I don't see them releasing "that" car from Massa's history without a big license deal getting announced. :(

    Maybe the early turbo hybrid Martini branded Williams though.
