Gameplay

Race 07 features more than 300 cars in nine different racing classes. Race 07 includes the full 2006 and 2007 seasons of the FIA World Touring Car Championships (FIA WTCC) as well as 8 more classes on 14 tracks from all over the world. The game features 32 real-life circuits.

Multiplayer is only available with installation of the Steam client and registration for an account with Steam.

Reception

The game was moderately-well received by critics. IGN stated that the game was "not as likely to win over a casual racer, because little was done to cultivate new hardcore sim racing fans here". PC Format, Eurogamer, Boomtown and PTGamers all agreed that "visuals aren't the main attraction of the game", while PC Zone criticized the AI and crash damage. GameShark praised the game's longevity.
