I recently purchased a ARC GP2 steering wheel complete with quick release mechanism and modified G25 force feedback system. This purchase has really completed my simulator, it adds the F1 feel to the wheel I was missing before.

I spent a few hours racing online the other night with a mate. We ended up being a little silly, in this race my mate was driving a double decker bus.

This morning I had a few practice laps around Melbourne on my simulator. I have updated the 2010 F1MG mod to version 1.1.

I have slowly got used to the new Bahrain layout after spending a few hours getting to know the new corners. I can't wait to watch the Grand Prix tomorrow.

This is a lap in the 2010 Mercedes F1 car on my race simulator. I completed the lap with no driver aids and fuel onboard in 1:57.900. I have only had the mod a few hours so the lap times should continue to fall.

Today saw the first two practice sessions for the Bahrain grand prix, the first of the 2010 season. In addition it was also the release date of the 2010 F1 rfactor mod created by F1MG. I downloaded the mod and had a practice with some of the cars. I have the Bahrain 2010 circuit but need to get to grips with the new layout.

For a final laugh I decided to have a crack at a decent lap time on the A1 Ring circuit in Austria. The video below shows my lap time against one of Schumachers taken back in 2003.

Here is some awsome footage of the pre-season testing in Jerez Spain.

I had a blast on my simulator on Sunday night, it's been a while since I have been on it since I started a new project building a arcade machine.

I was so excited when I heard Michael Schumacher was returning to Formula 1, and now the day has finally arived when he's re-united with a modern day F1 car.
