These look very similar to the PC version of F1 Racing Championship, so I can guess they are from the PC version. The developers tweaked the cars and tracks (e.g. removed Monaco, renamed every track as a different country, removed Malaysia’s grandstand roof, etc) and eventually released it as the unofficial RS3 – Racing Simulation 3.
I believe rumours of them losing the F1 license at the time were to do with them including multiplayer over the internet, which I believe the FIA wasn’t allowing for some reason. However this is probably not the whole picture!
Interesting info, thanks a lot VirtuaIceMan! maybe some former developr that worked on the game could help us to know more about this :O
Yeah, I guess this wasn’t cancelled, but renamed into Racing Simulation 3 since they lost the license.
The soundtrack featured “Girl Don’t Come” by American/British band Garbage, the main audio sounds in the menu were replicated in Racing Simulation 3, brought out a couple of years later, which again didn’t sell well due to licensing issues.
