you want Then ctrl+f and

                                 **Get To know your game:**
*Game Modes:


*Career Mode:
Career Mode is a real life simulator mode where you are you as a driver 
and compete against the 
world's best drivers on a 5 year season base in which you apply for jobs at 
teams starting at
either Scuedria Torro Rosso, 
Super Aguri Honda or The Midland F1 team as you progress you will 
be offered spots by higher teams until you reach the current world champions 
Renault F1,Overall Career Mode is the biggest Glory of 
this game and it certinally stands high.

*Grand Prix Weekend:
In this mode you pick a team a driver in the team a course
and then you are off to do a weekend
racing on the track you picked just like in real life this weekend consists of:

*Race Car Evolution
*Thursday Practice 1.(Only applies to Monaco)
*Thursday Practice 2.(Only applies to Monaco)
*Friday Practice 1.(Does NOT apply to Monaco)
*Friday Practice 2.(Does NOT apply to Monaco)
*Saturday Practice.
*Saturday Qualifying 
*Race


*QuickRace:
In Quickrace you decide all you pick your driver then you decide what track plus
to that you get to 
decide what position you start on the grid I really recommend this 
for beginners that havent played 
F1 games before.


*Time Trial:
Well I think the name exlains everything But here goes,Time Trial 
is where you select everything 
including the track and then you go onto the track but
wait your on your own all you have to do is 
set fast lap times but there's a secret if you set gold times
on all the tracks then you get a 
reward.


*World Championship mode:
Here is where to go if you want the classic feel of F1 games
you pick your team your driver then
you get to do a full season with that team and 
that driver I recommend it to everyone to give it 
a shot as its a very fun aspect of the game.


What Are These And How To Take Them.


*Race Car Evolution:
Where you do laps in a session and test out different settings
 on a car to get the best car setup
for that track.
*Thursday Practice 1.(Only applies to Monaco)
A session only held at monaco where you practice the track
 and set your car up there is a 60.00min
Limit.
*Thursday Practice 2.(Only applies to Monaco)
Its the same deal as session one you have 60.00 min to do what ever you wish.
*Friday Practice 1.(Does NOT apply to Monaco)
A session that is held on every track but Monaco as monaco has these on 
a Thursday the limit is
60.00min in this time you can do whatever you wish 
I recommend practicing with car setup so you
are ready for the race.
*Friday Practice 2.(Does NOT apply to Monaco)
Same as above the limit is 60.00min do whatever you wish.
*Saturday Practice
Another Practice session held at every track on a Saturday before Qualifying 
it durates 60.00min
and you can do whatever you wish 
I recommend practicing for the qualifying session or seting up
your car which you should have done in
the 5 previous sessions or practice the racing line which
helps alot.
*Saturday Qualifying 
Saturday Qualifying is where you do laps
to get a grid starting spot qualifying runs like it ran 
at the start of the 2006 season there are
3 sessions 2x 15min and 1x 20 min on the 20 min one if 
you are doing a lap when the timer runs out the lap will count.
Session 1 (15.00Minutes)
Cars that have done a lap time which was ranked positions 
17-22 will be knocked out.
Session 2 (15.00 Minutes) 
Cars that have completed a lap ranked in positions 11-16 will be knocked out.
Session 3 (20.00 Minutes)
This is the final fight for pole position 
which ever position you finnish you will start there is
no knockout and there is a final chance
if the timer runs out 00.00 and you are on a flying lap
you will get to complete it.
*Race
Well the word says all there is 22 cars top 8 score points.

*Point Scoring System:

Top 8 cars score points every race as follows

1st-10pts
2nd-8pts
3rd-6pts
4th-5pts
5th-4pts
6th-3pts
7th-2pts
8th-1pts

*Aids in F1 "06"

*Traction Control
Is a really simple Aid but helps heaps what it does it dosent let your rear 
Wheels Spin when Too Much power is added to them so no Burnouts.
*ABS
Anti-Lock Braking system another simple aid but will help it does NOT
let your brakes lock Which prevents some loss of control
and Slows Tyre wear down as you can never lock 
your wheels.
*Steering Assistance
Steering Assistance is a big Aid,
In my point of view only
a beginer should use it thats 
Hasnt Played F1 games in the past with this aid 
it still requires you turn but it will
turn slightly to let you know when to turn but
with this aid you will achive slow 
Lap times as you cant drive your style.
*Braking Asistance
Should Only be use by beginers what it does
is it brakes for you but again your driving 
style is not like the computer aids so it will affect your
lap times but tis good for 
Beginers so they improve Overtaking and Steering while not
worrying about braking.
*Virtual Racing Line
A line that stays on the track with 3 colours 
Red-Means Brake
Yellow-Go easy Reduce 
Throttle or let go completely
Green-Go for it throttle hard out.
*BA markers
Same as the VRL but instead markers come up 
if you see an A it means throttle/Acelerate
if you see a B it means Brake,Its another very good aid.
*Spin Recovery
Spin recovery is what it says all it is for eg. you spin out and 
your car faces the 
wrong way but if you have this turned on it autoatically puts you back 
on track.
*Stability Control
Stability control stabalises your car more eg.if you go 
over a ripple strip too 
hard and have this on it will reduce the chances of you spinning out it also de
-pends what level you have it set to there are 
3 Weak,Medium,Strong its also a good choice for beginers.

*How good Is the car?

Mclaren-Mercedes:
        Top Speed	: 93
	Acceleration	: 97
	Power		: 94
	Braking		: 92
	Stability	: 91
	Handling	: 93
Overall: 
Its a pretty good car with everything you need to win with.

Ferrari:
        Top Speed	: 97
	Acceleration	: 98
	Power		: 96
	Braking		: 96
	Stability	: 97
	Handling	: 97
Overall:
I think Its the best car in the game and 
will do you the best you can in the game.

Renault:
        Top Speed	: 96
	Acceleration	: 98
	Power		: 94
	Braking		: 96
	Stability	: 94
	Handling	: 95
Overall:
Its More then Likely the 2nd best car you can get 
in the game and will nearly give you the
same result as a Ferrari.

Redbull Racing:
        Top Speed	: 88
	acceleration	: 86
	Power		: 88
	Braking		: 93
	Stability	: 90
	Handling	: 89
Overall:
Its more of a beginer car i'd say middle class 
it will give a pro an average finnishing place
of about 6th-8th place but in a track you are good at you can win with it.

BMW-Sauber:
        Top Speed	: 93
	Acceleration	: 90
	Power		: 90
	Braking		: 89
	Stability	: 87
	Handling	: 90

Overall:
Its a pretty Good little car its about ties with 
Toyota id say on average a pro would place 
around 4-5th place and win on a couple of tracks t
he car has good top speed down a long 
straight if you change setting you would get 320km/h+.

Honda:
        Top Speed	: 91
	Acceleration	: 90
	Power		: 91
	Braking		: 90
	Stability	: 92
	Handling	: 93
Overall:
Its a good car you will be able to win races 
with its most probably the 4th fastest car and
is most likely honda's best to date.

Panasonic Toyota:
        Top Speed	: 92
	Acceleration	: 89
	Power		: 90
	Braking		: 86
	Stability	: 92
	Handling	: 90
Overall:
I think its the same as a BMW and has better 
stability but has slower acceleration and braking 
then a BMW id say they are evenly matched.

Super Aguri Honda:
        Top Speed	: 80
	Acceleration	: 80
	Power		: 75
	Braking		: 80
	Stability	: 82
	Handling	: 87
Overall:
Its the slowest car in the game and will get you no where 
if you stick to it you'd be mad if you
could win with it I mean your even mad if your thinking 
that you could even though you havent played
this game!

Torro Rosso:
        Top Speed	: 87
	Acceleration	: 84
	Power		: 87
	Braking		: 89
	Stability	: 90
	Handling	: 88
Overall:
Its a fantastic car to start with a bit slow compared to other
but I will gurantee you If you 
start career this is the best car to try and get into.

Midland F1:

        Top Speed	: 82
	Acceleration	: 83
	Power		: 80
	Braking		: 85
	Stability	: 88
	Handling	: 88

Overall:
The car is slow much faster then Aguri 
Though but slower then Torro Rosso I see it as a 
Stable Little car with good handling 
but not a good choice its the 2nd worst car.

Williams-Cosworth:
        Top Speed	: 96
	Acceleration	: 91
	Power		: 97
	Braking		: 90
	Stability	: 92
	Handling	: 91

Overall: 
Its Good car and will let you compete for the win it has
everything good esspecially power,
But still not as good as the '97' car O'well time goes.
