i believe the f2007 in prologue is way better than any other console f1 sim. If you use the correct setup that is. I use wings, Front:100 Rear:125 and gearing shortened with 7th gear being selected at 280km/h. And lengthening 7th so it doesn't hit the limiter. S1 tyres.

f12010, from the videos I've seen does not simulate oversteer at all like gt5 prologue. But i admit the f2007 in prologue needs a drastic overhaul in terms of tyres physics and aerodynamics. But this is just my opinion.

Oh and YESSSSSS! the ferrari f10 is in GT5!!!!
 
Yeah I agree about the aero modelling, it feels really strange in prologue the way the aero kicks in so dramatically with varying speed etc. Obviously it increases with speed but it should be more linear.

I think F1 2010 does a pretty good job all round, especially the simulation of tyre grip. I think they have done a really good job of simulating oversteer, especially the way the grip breaks away violently as it should with slick tyres. That said, you can still manage oversteer with careful throttle application which is nice because it rewards precision. In prologue I found the steering to be a bit vague and you never feel completely connected through the steering.

No doubt they have worked on this for the final release though but for now, F1 2010 is keeping me more than occupied.
