So while we wait, here's what you'll need to do.
Click the link, download the zip and copy the enclosed folder to wherever you want it to be.
Now, normally, you would just dbl click the GPxPatch icon, but because Wine is messed up at the moment, you'll need to use the PlayonLinux instructions I posted earlier (and yes, when you get that prompt about SYSTEM or 8.5, choose 8.5, because SYSTEM, right now, means v9, which you don't want).
So in PlayonLinux, when you get asked to choose the EXE to run, select GPxPatch and you should be good to go.
That said, I only put this folder together a couple of hours ago and it's completely untested, but with luck, it'll work!
So assuming it does, you'll find the game will be running in the default 800x600 resolution. If you need something bigger, you can either select one of the screen resolutions in the game menu, OR, you can change the first three lines in the f1graphics.cfg file to this (or whatever screen res you need):
1 ; f1graphics.cfg controls all settings (default 0)
1680 ; [RELEASE] Game 3D Horizontal Resolution
1050 ; [RELEASE] Game 3D Vertical Resolution
We're up to 78% now, so not much longer. It's a slightly bigger than 300mb download, so it should come down to you fairly quickly.
