Just wondering if for an update of the car list, polyphony digital could add some of the legendary f1 cars from over the years such as Michael schumachers Ferrari f2004, ayrton senna and alain prost's 1988 mclaren mp4/4 and Alain prosts 1993 Williams fw 15 c
Any thoughts on other cars that could be added? And if you think polyphony should do it?

Ferrari cars we could see, same with Red Bulls. With the other cars they would need licensing

All cars in GT are licenced, not just certain ones.

The real question is whether PD would have old F1 cars available or not, considering Codemasters' F1 licence. I am not certain they would be without a sub-licence.

 Am I right in thinking that Kaz stated all copyright to F1 cars bar Ferrari are owned by Bernie Ecclestone?

If thats the case (I read it on an interview that GT Planet  (that I cannot find) When asked about other F1 cars in GT5.

"Why does Ferrari have the only F1 car in the game? While talking to a marketing representative for one of the manufacturers in GT5, I finally received an answer to this perplexing question. It all comes down to licensing and Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone. He commands control of the licensing for all of the cars in the series, with the exception of Ferrari. For reasons known only to Bernie and Ferrari, they have a special provision in their F1 contract which allows them to license their cars to whomever they please."

in F1 a car that hasn't been used in 2 year old is no longer "owned" by F1 so the owner can do what they please so that may explain the 07 Ferrari but the 10 Ferrari must off gone under the Ferrari-Bernie agreement

Senna's MP4/4 man i love that car.. shame he's gone. always loved an missed...

Hmm... If we're talking F1 legends I would like to see some of the ground breaking F1 cars such as the Lotus 78 JPS mkIII Ground effect car or the Brabham BT46 fan car which won its first race and was then promptly banned.

Maybe even the Tyrrell six wheeler, might make pit stops a bit interesting tough that one!
