A demo of Formula 1 97 for the Sony PlayStation.

Notes

  • Dated 1 month and 2 weeks before the initial PAL release.
  • Shares elements from the earlier 'Alpha' build (3 lap races, visible alcohol sponsorship, etc) while also having its own changes such as a less extreme handling model.
  • Inserting a second controller will give you access to a handful of debug tools, pressing the left/right directional pads adjusts the AI skill level and O enables/disables a wireframe overlay alongside an always changing 'Debug Code' string on the top left.
  • There is a hidden timer which will end the demo after around 3 minutes and crashes afterwards when played on emulators such as ePSXe.
  • Notably one of the splash screens seen at the end of the demo is a version of the 'Arcade Mode' loading screen with 'West' on the rear spoiler which was hastily edited out.
