Formula BMW FB02 is a small single seater, used by an UK based company called V1 Championship whose aim is to discover a new racing driver through a series of tests. V1 will be launched in 2008 and shown on TV in the UK. Live for Speed has been chosen to be part of the selection process of the new drivers.
LFS developers had first-hand experience driving the car in 2007: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_9Kc6CDwzh8.
Setup tip
Low downforce and stiff suspension should make this car pretty quick around corners and not very hard to drive.
