    Big fan of F1, but haven't bought a codemasters game since 2011. Had this game preordered for some time, I didn't expect much especially when the release was delayed. However the game plays very well, the graphics are good and frame rate stable at around 60fps. Despite the lack of game modes the main features of F1 racing are there, although the lack of safety car is inexplicable. I boughtBig fan of F1, but haven't bought a codemasters game since 2011.

I bought the game mainly for online play with friends and it does provide a great deal of fun, even if all the bugs aren't fixed yet. You can tell the game was rushed to be published, but the enjoyment is still there and with a few updates I think I would recommend the game.… Expand

    Review from a die-hard F1 fan who has been to many of the current roster of tracks in real life.

    This game has been getting a hard time since release.. Australia got this game on retail just over 1 full week before everyone else. I pre-ordered, got it day 1, played it for 3-4 days, then returned it. Why? Well, the game itself is decent while on track.

    This game has been getting a hard time since release.. Australia got this game on retail just over 1 full week before everyone else. I pre-ordered, got it day 1, played it for 3-4 days, then returned it. Why? Well, the game itself is decent while on track. However, there is SO much missing from the game, its more of a tech demo with a full track list rather than a full game. Im not going to go on about full career mode, because thats not a selling point for me. I find that having to go to my motorhome between races is a pain in the arse and i dont miss it at all. Criticisms below..

    As said, on track its fine. Looks pretty enough, handles more or less satisfactorily despite the race marshalls being VERY lenient with corner cutting. I play my racers on max or close to max difficulty and the racing was a decent challenge. And, dare i say, its realistic in its driver (AI) settings insofar as Maldonado caused me many off track episodes during my time with the game.

    Downsides:
    Car setup and tuning is very weak. Eg There can be no excuse to have only 5 step settings for downforce on any game that wants to be taken seriously. Online aspect is also equally poor. You choose from a set of bunched characteristics for online race type... u cannot set race distance, u cannot force custom aid settings, u cannot even pick which race u want to enter: u can only choose a type (wheel to wheel / classics / general) and it will then force u to wait while the servers try to matchmake u into a lobby with a random track with random people. There is no browser.. This blows my mind. WHAT were the devs thinking? Codemasters have done themselves zero favours with this release.

    I could forgive the lack of career mode if the rest of the game-eco-system was complete... but it isnt. 5/10 and i have already returned the game.    … Expand

    It's not a revolutionary game, it's amazingly low on content, and its also plagued by glitches and bugs. Why Codemasters? What happened? The driving, at least, is still pretty good.

    Not only Codemasters finally managed to release the game in the first half of the F1 season, and not when it ends, but the game itself has such a good driving model and is so fluent that it blows previous console editions out of the water. On the other hand, unfortunately, F1 2015’s content is very modest, with lack of a career mode being the biggest letdown. [09/2015, p.62]

    I am happy to announce that Codemasters are not leaving the novice players behind in order to chase the most realistic F1 game to date.
