This is a complete set of driver suits I have been working on to compliment the F-Retro Gen 3 1983 Formula 1 season skin pack by TAMS2SP, found here. You will need to download and install the skinpack first before installing the driver suits.

I've tried to make these as accurate as possible, to the best of my ability, using broadcast footage and photographs of each drivers suit from the '83 F1 season.

Included is a suit for each driver in the 1983 skin pack as well as the included optional drivers. I have also included a suit and helmet skin for Chico Serra, who raced 4 rounds for the Arrows team, and a suit for Alan Jones who raced only 1 round for Arrows at Long Beach. For those who wish to use those drivers.

I have not included a helmet for Alan Jones as I highly recommend using the excellent one from the F1 1978 season skin pack and copying its 3 files (78_Jones_helmet.dds, 78_visor.dds and 78_visor_spec.dds) into the "formula_retro_g3/TAMS2SP/" folder. This is the one I have been using.

Edited TAMS2SP 1983 skin pack xml files have been included to aid with switching between the optional drivers.

I hope you enjoy my work and that it brings a little more immersion to the sim for your 1983 season. Happy driving.

* Thank you all very much for your reviews and kind words. I'm so glad you are all enjoying these! *

looks great with the 1983 colors. I installed both the skins and the suits/helmets via AMS2CM. Skins and helmets are shown in game but all suits are white. what did I do wrong.

I've never used the AMS2CM so I'm not sure how that works but you do need to install the car skins first and then add in the suits so the xml file overwrites the original to add in the lines needed for the suits to show up in game.
thanks!

Really well done.
Excellent skins! Love the realism these bring.
Thank you very much for contributing to my 1983 skinset! I have not been able to start working on suits so far, so your addition is very welcome.

Do you prefer licensed hardware?

  • Yes for me it is vital

  • Yes, but only if it's a manufacturer I like

  • Yes, but only if the price is right

  • No, a generic wheel is fine
