More predictable vehicle handlingĮA Sports F1 22 included a new tyre model and a ‘more true to life’ handling system. How it will work in-game is yet to be revealed, with the frequency their appearance a key component to authenticity.
Now, they return, especially pertinent following the Azerbaijan Grand Prix in 2021 and Australian Grand Prix earlier this season. The last Codemasters-developed game to feature red flags, which were triggered after a severe incident, was F1 2014. There will be three bonus tracks that are not on the real-world 2023 calendar but have been used in previous seasons: Circuit Paul Ricard, the Shanghai International Circuit and the Algarve International Circuit, aka Portimão. However, that was so late in the season that it was never added to that season's game. Losail was used by F1 two years ago, where Lewis Hamilton swept to victory. In previous iterations of the F1 games, new venues (such as Jeddah in 2021) were added post-release, but that's not the case this time. That means new venues such as the new Las Vegas Strip Street Course in the US and Losail International Circuit in Qatar are set to be playable from launch. As we hoped and expected, the full calendar for the 2023 edition of the Formula 1 schedule will be included within the new game.
