    Have to give Codemasters a lot of credit. They have did a good job with F1 2021. The gameplay is solid and polished and the new career mode is good. Seems to be their best game yet. It's a recommendation to everyone as well as racing fans.

    I think the game is the best ever. Braking Point mode which is very cool, some tracks improved and the best graphics ever.

    I'm a fan of F1 maybe this won't be an objective review but the game is worth the money. Steering wheel control is perfect, music effects like in real F1. I recommend it for every F1 fan.

    Rally enjoy this game with good graphics and wonderful gameplay. Breaking Point mode has improved the standard to higher level from the last game F1 2020.

    Probably the best racing game available for a PS console. The graphics are superb, the driving is insanely realistic, the licensed content is the best you can find. Obviously the game had some issues at first, since the racer stats were still to be implemented into the game, but that's in the past. The game modes are really detailed, down to car preparation and all of that. What could haveProbably the best racing game available for a PS console.

The game modes are really detailed, down to car preparation and all of that. What could have used a bit more of work is the presentation. In-game music and UI could have been better. To those who complain about penalizations, do you even know the F1 rules? It's not a demolition derby game, buddy.… Expand

    the penalties you get are so bad. You get deleted laps for simply going on the rumble strips in Time Trial. Other than that though, the game is very fun. I love playing, even in single player as well.

    A very good game, with beautiful graphics, solid sound and addictive gameplay. Story mode however is a little disapointing, with basic scenarios to overcome and not much in the balance.
    And multiplayer is a mess, lobbies do not refresh consistently, do not start correctly and some other bugs, and I am not even talking about the "players" who confused this game with Destruction Derby...

    I recommend this game to any racing fans but beware, it might get a little repetitive after one or two season of carreer mode.    … Expand

    I appreciate F1 2021 for its experimentation with new modes and options, proving that this franchise is much more than the average annual drivers’ update. Not only does driving feel more realistic than ever, 2021’s story mode is a pleasant surprise that I hope attracts further development for the series’ next iteration. For now, though, it remains a great F1 simulator that will generate the same excitement happening in the real world’s F1 competition right now.

    The Breaking Point narrative mode allows the player to join races while feeling like they’re the lead in a Hollywood movie. That being said, the mode’s story is linear and your racing efforts don’t necessarily have an effect on its scenario. While the career mode is as well made as always, if you’ve played the series before, there’s just not enough to make the experience feel fresh again.

    F1 2021 impresses. Whether you're an avid competitor or want to pursue a storytelling career on your own, you'll be given countless opportunities to customize the game. That makes F1 2021 a versatile title. Once on the track, it is still a very solid racing game, suitable for both controllers and (semi) professional racing wheels.
