Hey, the situation is clear: both I and my friend enjoy racing games, especially the F1 series (mainly F1 2013). When he lets me play, he points out that the game doesn’t fully capture real-world physics—cars don’t move or stop like they do in reality. He mentions that while we can’t demand 100% realism in games, some titles like NFS Shift get closer to it. He suggests watching real F1 videos to see the difference and notes that achieving such realism is tough for F1 games compared to simulators. I felt confused about his comments, but he believes F1 games fall short, especially when compared to more realistic racing experiences. What do you think? Is he right?

I actually believed the display on the right was genuine—it seems incredibly authentic.

The experience is quite different from what you're used to. I own both the 2012 and 2013 models and have followed every F1 race since at least 2010, sometimes intermittently. The game feels very accurate, but I believe it's because the racing style changes so much in real life.

The game looks quite accurate. When you look at it compared to the 2014 season, the vehicles have changed significantly, which explains the differences.

He isn't making a direct link to 2014. Instead, he relates the game to broader patterns from 2012 and 2013.

The only thing I need to say is that F1 cars don’t drive like regular cars, and he should watch that video.
