F1 2004 Season | v4.0

After a lot of work in the background, I'm pleased to announce that version 4.0 for the 2004 season will be released in the coming days. This update also helps make the wait a bit easier while the R26 launch is being finalized.

Significant improvements to the Formula One 2004 Season mod for Assetto Corsa have been done made in collaboration with MSF Modding Team, and for the first time, physics improvements thanks to Didier Bestard and Spectron Racing Team.

Note: Spectron Racing Team has developed a brand new suspension system, following real life aspects of each car that will debut with the 4.0 version of the 2004 season and will be applied to all upcoming mods.

In short, here’s what you’ll see in the new version:

For example, the Ferrari not only has the Marlboro sponsors correctly placed, but also includes the Schuberth helmets for Michael Schumacher and Barrichello. Ralf Schumacher and Mark Webber now feature the new helmet model as well, adding more immersion. The Jaguar R5 now has a more accurate Monaco livery, and the regular version features correctly placed sponsors and a more accurate shade of green, with a layered finish that subtly shifts tone depending on the weather a clear step up from the flat look in version 2.0.

New livery additions include the Interlagos BAR Honda for Anthony Davidson, Shanghai livery for the FW26, The McLaren now has all the correct sponsors placed. It also includes the main teams with slicks and all the goodies from version 3.0, but enhanced and improved.
