F1 Race Stars

[Razor]

Just downloaded the demo for the Xbox 360 and it's a pretty good arcade racer. Very similar to the old Mario Kart games from the N64 days but with more references to F1. The cars handle very well, the tracks are decent as over the top arcade lunacy, (Roughly 85% is fictional with about 15% being nearly dead on to the real life track) the graphics look brilliant with a cartoony look to them (The cars look like miniature go-karts of the real thing, right down to the sponsor logos) and the weapon systems are pretty awesome with F1 inspired measures (Like DRS Speed Boost, KERS Boost dotted around some turns, calling up the rain to slow down the competitors and bringing out the safety car to compress the field for examples)

The only thing that bugs me is the sound. The cars sometimes do sound like F1 cars but at others times they don't. Also, they've got generic voice actors to do the voices of the drivers instead of the drivers themselves. (So for example, Seb Vettel sounds more like Col. Klink from Hogan's Heroes rather than Seb himself)
