An understandably disillusioned Microsoft have confirmed that they are aware of the possible leak of the Halo 4 Xbox console game and are currently in the process of working in an attempt to get to the bottom of how the slip occurred.

If you've ever been to an F1 race, you'll know it's a pretty enthralling experience, and although such high-speed, adrenaline-rushing excitement is difficult to replicate in the real world (mainly because of the speed limitations imposed by the road police), the official F1 game is certainly a safer, cheaper way of getting your Formula 1 fix.
