F1 2011 The Game (Codemasters)
In game footage, no sound sadly, worth a look.

Looks really good, like the UI very clean and simple, nice little touch with the LG logo on the time. You can also see Kers charge back up when they cross the line. very exciting.

Interesting to see that the in-car menu relates to fuel mixture, rather than the throttle map like F1 2010.

Also, it's nice to see you can really launch yourselves at a chicane now without guaranteeing a spin. Though I wouldn't recommend doing what the guy on the video does!
 
I was at the GamesCom and was able to drive a three lap multiplayer race (10 Players @PS3) on the new Indian GP track.
I cannot tell much about the game though, racing a track I never saw before during rain without hearing my own engine sound was.. well, quite horrible. First lap took almost as long as the two other laps together.
I was in second place until 4 corners before the finish line, when i was kicked off track by the 2(!) cars behind me :D
BUT I used the new Fanatec F1-style wheel and it was a dream :D It felt sooooo good, I din't want to let go. If it wasn't THAT expensive...
