New Video of Upcoming Reiza Formula Car Surfaces

Paul Jeffrey · May 20, 2017

The first moving footage of the 2017 specification open wheel race car coming to Automobilista has surfaced courtesy of Niels Heusinkveld, and it looks pretty impressive indeed..

Already confirmed as heading to Reiza Studios Automobilista title in the near future, gamers have yet to see the 2017 spec high downforce machine in anything other than the occasional picture teased by the studio, and now thanks to Reiza physics engineer Niels Heusinkveld we get our first sight of the car driven in anger.

Wheeling round the Hockenheim Grand Prix circuit, part of the 'Legendary Tracks' DLC series, the car looks and sounds incredible out on the track with Heusinkveld behind the wheel.

Automobilista is a PC exclusive racing simulation from Reiza Studios, available to purchase from Steam.

Don't forget to check out the Automobilista sub forum here at RaceDepartment to keep abreast of the latest news and discussions with regards to the simulation. We have a massive mod database where you can check out and download a selection of cars, tracks, skins, apps and other such third party content, plus of course we host some incredible club racing events on a regular weekly basis. If you want to become involved in the action yourself, check out the Automobilista Racing Clubs and Leagues sub forum and sign yourself up to a race today!

Looks (and sounds, something Reiza does really well) great.

Wondering if AMS next update will make it by end of May? Previously it was "supposed" to come in April but wasn't finished yet.

I thought they were going to give it a NA V10 engine?

Free

Paulo Gomes · May 21, 2017

This new Formula 2017 car will be free! But the track is a paid DLC with 4 different versions of Hockenheim, 2016, 2011, 1988 and 1972.

its nothing new. Formula Reiza has DRS too. Or did you mean differently ?

I mean it is complete, model ok, sound ok, physics ok, DRS ok...so...ready to release?

Paulo Gomes · May 22, 2017

There are two new features in the Formula 2017, the ERS system, that is already present in the Formula Extreme beta version, but is still missing the turbo moddeling that is in development. And all cars that have does features in real life, are going to receive an updated too.

eljueta · May 22, 2017

Automobilista does not disappoint man

Leynad777 · May 22, 2017

The Formula Extreme car in the Beta-version is more powerful than the AMS-version and sounds and looks like in this video. So i think i already was driving it last week. Both very skittish and i prefer the Formula Reiza (V8) plus all other F1-cars in AMS

Yep it looks real, the way the car and suspension react to the changes in the tarmac and the curbs. I feel some sims don't do this the best in replays, but this looks incredible. Could be mistaken for real life.

Reality effect come from track cam settings. In sims track camera movement and behavior absolutely unreal.

Niels_at_home · May 22, 2017

Filming the monitor with some over saturation and camera 'shake' adds some life and 'realism' in a way.

I am Brazilian and I really like this game, I am enjoying the great improvements they are bringing to the game lately, great work. Now, a pity the game's engine doesn't allow the developers to put a really basic setup function: pedal range (devs words not mine). I can't play the game because I can't adjust the brake pedal range! All other titles allow me to do that.. I tried to use the DxTweak 2 to make it work but then the pedals bar ingame gets crazy and keeps 100% full. I hope one day they can bring that to the game somehow. Keep up updating and improving it but remember to put basic stuff in the list too.
