That's a lovely rain effect

it's not pure drifting, but Eurogamer article states: "It's wonderful having touge back, though the course available is a direct lift from the original Grid and perhaps feels a little over-familiar." https://www.eurogamer.net/articles/2019-07-10-grid-feels-a-lot-like-the-original-for-better-and-for-worse

Nordschleife coming to Dirt?! Or Grid?

PC version had external behind-the-car views, so I assume PS1 did; check YouTube videos perhaps?

Depending on where this ends up going, expect a livery update for the Haas cars at some point... https://www.motorsport.com/f1/news/haas-rich-energy-logo-canada/4454083/

At least they seem to have the brand new pitlane buildings in place (looking at F1 2018 vs F1 2019 videos online)

Just read this over here: https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/f1-2019-will-feature-microtransactions-—-including-items-only-available-via-cash.387614/

It's probably down to licensing these days; car companies wising up to the value of their product and charging a lot more/doing exclusive deals (*cough* Toyota *cough* Gran Turismo seemingly). That's not to say they couldn't do another smorgasbord of racing one day (I liked in ToCA you could be doing touring, ovals, open wheeler, historic, rally, rallycross, monster truck, trucks, even Honda quads and mowers!! The rally bit was a nice crossover, almost a mini sales demo for the Colin McRae games. I hope the F1 bit might be a mini promo for the F1 games, but it's much more likely it'll have dialled-down arcade handling (wonder if we'll get handbrakes in the F1 cars like ToCA Race Driver haha!).

I hope that Pro Truck is a throwback to the truck racing in the ToCA Race Driver games, but you're probably right 😛 I don't know where F1 fits in, but I hope they have more open wheel catergories than just that. To be honest, it is a bit underwhelming, compared to the ToCA Race Driver games, nothing has ever had the breadth of content that TRD3 had, for instance.

If someone senior wants to kill this thread and rename the WE WANT GRID 4 one then that might be best, as that has most traffic

Maybe they're from console version?

Gameplay footage... back to the first track in Race Driver: GRID! Sort of a reboot... Compare to GRID and GRID Autosport:

Maybe it'll be DLC 🙄

I noticed GRID is launching with an Ultimate Edition with 3 seasons. Might this be a vague indicator that Dirt Rally 2.0 might stretch to 3 seasons too?
