Hi all, F1 2002 is an awesome improvement from F1 2001. However, one flaw that hasn't changed yet is the fact that the tires don't seem to suffer much from late braking. What I mean is that I don't see any immediate effect from late braking such as smoke coming out of the tires, whether it is rear or front. Also, the car still seems to oversteer a bit when going into a slow corner. Is this realistic? Thanks.
This is all about setups and drivingstyle i guess. I have no problems locking up the tires coming into a corner, and sometimes i loose the car cause of that. No oversteer into corners, or midapex, more like understeer, and then changes to oversteer at exit.

Go into your .plr file and change the "steering help functionality" line. The parameters are defined there for you, F12002 has extra grip set by default. Also make sure the steering help is off in the game.

If you increase the brake presure with the new setups pages people have provided you will lock the tires while trailbraking. I could not do that until I increase the BP from 75% (default) to 85% I think the oversteer and the overall behavior is very realistic.
