Grid 2019 is practically a reboot of the first Grid game of the series, while it still manages to hold the same tracks from the first game, there are some things that were changed.
The first thing which you will notice are the cars (modern cars and much more different car classes) and number of events, but some things were removed, like the sponsor's main and bonus objective, demolition derby, drift and touge events.
As you know you have different race disciplines in which you have to complete each event in order to get to the showdown event, after that you are given one ticket for the main Grid World Series, after receiving four tickets you gain entry to the Grid World Series which is basically the last event of the game.
The amount of cars available throughout the game isn't really amazing, for a 2019 game, there are approximately 70 cars split across 5 main categories. The amount of tracks is even more disappointing, only few real-life race tracks with those city tracks from the previous game. After some time you will quickly notice that you will practically drive on almost the same track with one of their variants and the weather changed.
The name of the events isn't very colorful, you have three different events with the same name in which only thing changed is the location of the events for ex. TC-1 Special Europe, TC-1 Special Asia and TC-1 Special America and many more. One thing which is even more irritating for me is that at the half of the category you already have the opportunity to drive the fastest car of the category which kills the idea of why I want to get to the end of the category. The only events which I enjoyed the most were the invitationals one in which you practically drive different cars almost every other event.
The sponsor's main and bonus objective are turned into race objectives in which you don't earn more money, but this time you earn different accolades and more racing liveries.
Race commentators and race engineer become repetitive after some time and even annoying.
In this game your race team's name doesn't matter, nor the livery you choose, because you will have the opportunity to change it per car, the only thing which matters is your teammate. Teammate role is to earn more money according to its final race position and how much of the final profit he/she wants to keep for himself/herself.
The game graphics are amazing, so far the best I've seen, the physics are impressive too, this game can be fun for both arcade and sim drivers (just one thing to note, there are not many tuning option or better said the tuning options are simplified in order to make it more affordable for beginners).
All in all a great game, great for both arcade and sim racers, amazing graphics and physics, but after some time you will find some things repetitive, the events are pretty straightforward races, not many race types, only races and time attacks. I personally enjoyed playing the game, but at the end I realised how many things could have been added in order to make this game more colorful or better said to give this game a soul.
