Grand Prix 3 (GP3) is a computer racing simulator by MicroProse. Released in 2000 by Hasbro Interactive featuring the 1998 Formula One season (with all drivers except Jacques Villeneuve who is instead replaced by a fictional character John Newhouse). The game wasn't quite as well received as its predecessors but at the time was widely considered to be the best racing simulation available.An add-on to the game called GP3-2000 or GP32k was released by Hasbro which updated the game to the 2000 Formula One season. A few other changes were made as well including: updated damage physics including damage from on-circuit debris improved AI a new replay system and EAX 3D-sound.Since the release of Grand Prix 4 the GP3 modding scene has slowly declined and with the cracking of track editing for GP4 many track modders left GP3 for the newer title.
