Here's what I'm looking forward to... “our portfolio will be extended with a FORMULA ONE experience that will address a younger video game audience later in 2012." "An additional and all-new FORMULA ONE experience for a family audience is due this holiday season with details to be announced." So, F1 201x for your Playstation, Xbox, and PC... And for the Nintendo: VETTEL KART

Maybe they're add a new feature that for each race you win, they'll include an incremental patch to fix problems. Win the whole season and you get the following year's release.
