I seriously doubt that anything F1 would be considered to be in the Public Domain under IP law. The manufacturer? Who is the manufacturer in F1? More technically the constructor. Haas Chassis is built by Dallara, and the powertrain is almost entirely Ferrari, but the constructor is Haas, and they hold the rights.

So the rights rest with the team, unless, in order to race in F1, the teams have to grant the rights to FOM. We'll if it's that much of a problem, why don't they just build RR3 Spec F1 cars for the game.

Is everyone so hell bent on 'realism' (whatever that means in RR3 these days, lol) that they'd pass on the fun of it?
