Alan P should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
As a commited GPL player (how commited? I'm about to spend £150 on a Momo steering wheel, FOR MY COMPUTER!) I can safely say that the default setup IS ****, the springs are set WAY too loose and most of the time you're cornering on the bump stops, which ARE VERY HARD and make the car very skittish. If you get the full game (Available from £9.99 I think) get loads of setups from various websites. There have been several graphical updates to make the game look absoluterly spiffy, like a modern game.

And a wheel is ESSENTIAL, you can fairly good with a joystick, keyboard will get you nowhere, but you really need a wheel to get good at the game. They're available from £20 upwards to more than £500 if you want!

I can recommend the ferrari, Cooper or honda to learn with, and TURN OFF all the driver aids otherwise you'll get used to having them!
