Gameplay

Formula One 2000 features 17 Grand Prix circuits, and a new "arcade" mode. This arcade mode seemed more similar in style to WipEout—tracks were grouped into "location zones" with futuristic-sounding names and cars were grouped into series.[1] The player began on the easier courses with the worst cars, before unlocking the more difficult courses and the better cars. Bonus images could be unlocked as an incentive to win races. It also features the new Indianapolis Motor Speedway.

All alcohol and tobacco sponsors are censored.
