Hi, I'm new. I just recently won the Gillet Vertigo race car and it looks similar to an F-1 car. Is there a difference or are the cars with race in the name the same thing.

Your not kidding when you say your new are you.
The vertigo is just a pretty average but absoulute beauty to look at race car that can be bought or won.
The F1 cars are proper formula 1 cars that damon hill and so on race and they are not the same.
You never race an F1 except in the F1 cup which is at the end of pro mode where every car is an F1. They might to you look similair but there worlds apart the F1 are gods gift to those who have the patience to race endurances races over and over untill you win one.
There are a few and i thought i had them all untill i won a mystery vintage one that no one elese has even apparently seen.
Once you win an F1 its highly unlikely you'll drive another car because the handle like greased grease going down a greased lift shaft.
