Here is the 2002 Melbourne track updated.
This track was originally updated by Hega and has now been updated to 2002 by Naitch7 as accurately as possible.
"Hires realistic pit stands, garages, track adverts, reverse garages for Australia like in real life, and other small changes for the 2002 track"
The quality is fantastic, as you can see in the screenshots below, and I am looking forward to seeing more tracks updated like this.
A new year is under way, and it's time again to catch up with the rest of the 2025 releases in the Grand Prix 4 community. It's been a busy final few months of the year and there's plenty of cool developments by new and familiar authors who have shared their work with the community.
On my side, I have now updated this blog with mirror links to most of these downloads and some on the dedicated 2025 Download Resources page.
Without further ado, let's take a look at what's been released in the community lately.
This combines the Individual Meshes & Textures with the hi-res pitcrews DLL, whilst adding a new feature to have driver specific engineers, and individual meshes for engineers and pitcrews. There are other features now editable directly, such as the NoCD option, enabling advanced car-shader for internal steering wheels, and cockpit visor customisations.

Hi resolution pitcrew meshes has been available for a while now, but now Öggo has created a working model for engineers and pitcrews. It is a proof of concept, but still a massive improvement on the original mesh from the original game. This comes with a PSD template, so I look forward to seeing some new skins painted soon.

"So 2012 it is. And it's quite similar to the 2011 Add-on, but this time I decided to bring you an whole season set of cars in one package. Even the versions I have not edited so you can easily make your own mod if these are the cars you want to use. All versions (I Think) is included in this pack, I've done my best to spot differences, correcting mistakes on existing ones and adding missing versions. Most cars are converted from F1CM by Josekast, with a select few from Soulbringer, Hega and RSCT."

"The 2012 helmetset now with seperate helmet shapes. This helmetset have gotten some tweaks and now also gotten the correct helmetshapes for all drivers. I've added some missing helmets, fixed some others, fixed the alphalayer on some and added new versions that seemed to be missing.
All helmets from the 2012 season (that I know of) is included in this pack and are painted to fit the correct helmetshape. And I've done the best I can to make sure each helmet has the correct visor tint for the right races. But in most cases, you can decide yourself. You can run all helmets with individual shapes or you can use all helmets with only one shape for all. But if you only use one shape, some textures will not fit properly, most cases the visor tear offs and the new visorstrips on the updated shapes."

For the first time in 2025, I wanted to update you on some of the new downloads and updates available for Geoff Crammond's classic game.
It amazes me that over 20 years after the release of the game that there are new tools and editors to improve the game are being made available.
I'm also in awe of those who have the time and commitment and devotion to make a whole track.
Also in this update is a slight update to an existing mod and some new sounds to enjoy in GP4.
