Thanks. I know that pulls it back slightly but (for some reason which I can't remember) I didn't like it. I'll give it another try.

A lot of the game seems to be setup for the chase view ... So much for it being "real racing"! I wish I could get on with the chase view but I've never liked it.
 * you can see what the (back of) the car is doing, you can't in bonnet/in-car view
 * the ghost doesn't obscure the view, it does in bonnet/in-car view
 * you can see ahead and around (blind) corners, you can't in bonnet/in-car view

I still wish they'd change the view or let those of us with larger screens select an alternative view, for example ... Chase View is a compromise for having no force feedback... You can't feel oversteer so you skid in the other views, whereas in Chase, you can see the backend start to go and countersteer to prevent it or to minimize the skid.

If you have really good force feedback controls, you are better able to control the backend of the car without seeing it. I feel just the opposite. I tried chase view for quite a while. Never could get a 'feel' for it. Bumper view, Bonnet view (preferred), and cockpit view give me more visual and audio feedback than chase. It feels more like real driving. Chase view reminds me of driving my RC cars, which actually give more visual feedback than this game (chase) view.

But then,

everyone is different.
