    That is very old and common place now and they only use that for the Aston cars (although that will also change in the future too). The newer F1 sim is a 360 degree visual with their own motion platform.

    Older technology in projection and such a small FOV too - although it was all mounted on the motion platform so it didn't really matter too much. They have moved on to a much larger system with a larger envelope for more precise movements in all axis with a faster response time too. Visuals are all now off-board so a few more projectors added into it now. Very much in keeping with what the others teams have and use....but as usual the upgrades keep coming so even their 'newer' one is out of date now.

    Oh jeez no. There would be lawyers crawling over me for sharing stuff like that. Sorry.

    Closest thing you might be able to get hold of is a copy of Racecar Engineering where they go into some basic detail of the latest gen driving simulators. Pics are of the Sauber (Alfa Romeo) F1 sim...
