LACORSA vs HEAT 1960s F1 boardgames comparison

Something different on the channel! Just thought I'd answer any questions about what similarities may exist between LACORSA Grand Prix Game, which recently became available for retail distribution, and the ever-popular HEAT: Pedal to the Metal, given that they both are based on 1960s Formula 1 racing. I figured that boardgame players who are familiar with HEAT might wonder about LACORSA, even though it's been around for years -- just only via direct sales until now.
In short: They're entirely different board games! HEAT is a press-your-luck game; LACORSA is almost entirely strategic and directly competitive with other players, though is far simpler in mechanics. Obviously, table footprint is quite different too!
No images of HEAT here, as I don't own that one. I have played it, however. Being that it is a very popular game, I figured it wasn't really necessary to show it here; the assumption is that the viewer already knows about it.
