After a tumultuous end to an era in 2021 with a controversial final race, Formula One has dived into a new set of regulations that is shaking up the sport as a whole. There's a whole lot of drama to be found already in the real-world races — certainly enough to keep Drive to Survive viewers happy — but it also means a range of changes to F1 video games. This is something that needs to happen with F1 22, the next title in the franchise from developer Codemasters.
F1 22 is the official game for the 2022 season of Formula One, and will come complete with all of the real teams and drivers. As with previous games, My Team will be the comprehensive single player game mode, as the player takes control of their own F1 team and leads it to glory against the current titans of the sport. Of course there's plenty more that players will find along the way, including various multiplayer options, more straightforward Career and Championship modes, and aspects like the returning F2 junior formula.

As mentioned there are some big changes in the real-world sport of Formula One this year, with a different car model, new tire regulations, and budget caps to try and close up the field and bring more chance of exciting wheel-to-wheel racing. This gives Codemasters a big opportunity to build on the success of F1 2021, creating a game that's both accessible for newcomers to the sport and a more simulation-based experience for veterans of the series. So far, the developer has been making good promises on this front, and the smooth racing of a new preview build can leave would-be racers optimistic.
