The 1.1 patch for PC versions of Race Driver GRID has been released. It is meant for disc installed games, not those downloaded through Steam, direct2drive or or alike.
• Added support for Xinput wheel and Logitech Rumblepad 2, including default action map configurations.
• Adding ability to use H-pattern shifter in custom configuration by allowing configuration of gears 1 to 6 and reverse. Same for boost.
• Fix for missing Force feedback on Vista.
• Given user the ability to configure use of a pad or wheel through the hardware config xml file, this means that if the game fails to auto-detect the device type, they can specify it themselves..
• Symptoms of the game failing to detect the appropriate controller type are:
• Changing microcode optimisation level for NVIDIA 7xxx series graphics cards to reduce a pause when using each shader for the first time.
• Adding support for triple head displays.
• Graphical corruption fix when using multiple GPU’s.
• Network chat text made less obtrusive.
• Numerous on-going compatibility fixes.
This patch is only for the PC-DVD version of the game and is not compatible with versions bought through Direct2Drive, Metaboli & Steam. Patches for the downloaded versions should be available “within days”.

• Symptoms of the game failing to detect the appropriate controller type are:
• On a pad, handling is too twitchy, appears to steer “lock-to-lock”.
• On a wheel, the input lags and the linearity slider doesn’t appear to have an effect.
