How good is the physics of F355 compared to GPL?
The physics in Ferrari 355 aren't bad, especially for a Dreamcast. There are some flaws, but I guess every sim has those. I think GPL is a little more accurate physics-wise, but F355 is easier to pick up and play and it's certainly more realistic than, say, Gran Turismo 3, but it's possible that F12001 on PS2 is the most realistic console racer (from what I've heard)

I know because I returned the PS2 because of the F1 2001 disappointment.

I'm just going by the PC version of F1 2001 which I think IS better than F355 in the realism department (as long as you've got a GeForce 3 or ATI 8500) though again, it has its flaws as well. Someone in here said something about a sequel to F355 coming out on PC soon - now that WILL be awesome.
