This racer is a load of fun, plain and simple. Codemasters have set the bar to new heights with this racer. I've always been a fan of Codemasters' racing titles and this one does not disappoint.

This game shows its pedigree from the get-go. From the opening video to the innovative menu presentation, it all works. You quickly make your way through your career and it never gets boring. There is always something new waiting around the bend to challenge you.

Presentation: 9.5 - Refreshing presentation and totally immersive.

Graphics: 10 - Rich, saturated, atmospheric and pulls you into the game.

Sound: 9 - Does a nice job of re-creating the ambiance of being at and in a real race. Comments from pro drivers are repetitive but add a nice element.

Gameplay: 9.5 - Gameplay is great. Controls are responsive and flexibility to jump to and from any event is great. Races range from great fun to seriously competitive.

Overall: 9.5 - One of best in my book. Kudos CODEMASTERS!
