It’s a pity that ditching last generation of consoles did not manifest a substantial leap in quality (that many hoped for). Fortunately F1 25 is a better game than F1 24 in every way, with big emphasis on an improved driving model and path tracing on PCs. Still, a real revolution should arrive in the 2026 season.

F1 25 has built on last year's entry into the franchise and brought some genuine updates, both to the visuals and to the various modes in the game. I appreciate the changes made to My Team mode as a fan of both the sport and management games in general; and even though I'm overall somewhat lukewarm to Braking Point as a feature, I appreciate what Codemasters are trying to do with it.

Thanks to the inclusion of some cut-scenes created through motion capture , the involvement is particularly satisfying – and we point out that the mode is easily playable by both veteran pilots and younger users.

EA Sports F1 25 is much better than last year's installment, and Codemasters addressed key points to ensure its fans weren't disappointed. Braking Point 3 and My Team 2.0 are high-quality offerings that warrant recommending the game to fans of the competition and those looking to immerse themselves in its world. The handling improvements, despite their rough edges that will surely be addressed in future updates, are a decent sim cadence, as is the audio-visual section. Despite the less than favorable environment, this is a good F1 installment, and it will undoubtedly hold its own throughout the season.

F1 25 represents a nice evolutionary step forward in the series, it's not a leap, but a step in the right direction - it expands the modes to include links to the upcoming film, adapts My Team to a management form, and most importantly improves the driving physics.

EA sports F1 25 features the usual iterative improvements when it comes to visuals and physics, and LIDAR technology has been used to make a number of tracks as accurate as can be. But it's the return of Braking Point as well as a substantial overhaul of My Team that really makes this an impressive package, and a must-have for both casual and ardent F1 fans.

Compared to the previous game in the franchise, EA SPORTS F1 25 takes few risks in terms of the driving itself because it knows it has already achieved a very high level of excellence and stability. With some substantial changes to two of its main game modes and subtle improvements to the visuals, it is the most faithful and entertaining game for fans of the category, valuing the most ardent followers without giving up on new enthusiasts.

F1 25 is everything a Formula 1 fan could wish for: for the 2025 season, Codemasters' attention has focused on the return of Braking Point 3 and the Scuderia Career, the 2.0 evolution of the old My Team.

The new EA Sports F1 25 will not revolutionize neither the genre nor the saga, being as continuous as it is, but it has polished certain aspects (others not) and added interesting options to team management and multiplayer. LiDAR technology realli is quite impressive.

EA Sports F1 25 crosses the finish line with a solid, visually stunning experience. The use of Lidar enhances circuit realism, while the revamped Team Career mode adds strategic depth. The game includes varied modes like F1 World and Braking Point 3, appealing to both newcomers and veterans—provided they have a stable internet connection. Some drawbacks include predictable AI, uneven driver ratings, and limited Lidar application to only five tracks. Despite minor setbacks, the improved handling model and content-rich offering make it a benchmark for Formula 1 fans, delivering adrenaline, immersion, and fun.

F1 25, despite its flaws - which are largely a legacy from previous titles - brings improvements that help to make the sport more accurate.

F1 25 isn’t bad—in fact, it’s pretty good if you like management modes—but if you want a big improvement in every way, you might want to wait for a sale or the next big step forward.

F1 25 is just another annual sports game release that hasn't brought the anticipated changes. While the updates to My Team mode are genuinely cool, the persistence of the same technical issues effectively overshadows this.

F1 25 is an excellent continuation of the franchise. While not a radical reimagining, it delivers meaningful enhancements where it matters most—handling, immersion, and presentation. The updated physics engine rewards skill and punishes sloppiness, creating a more authentic experience for sim racers and F1 fans alike. There’s still room for growth, particularly in career innovation and narrative storytelling, but this year’s edition is more than just a routine pit stop. It’s a smart, well-tuned machine that respects both its legacy and its future. From the newly improved Braking Point 3—featuring characters like Aiden Jackson, Devon Butler, and Callie Mayer—to the fun inclusion of the Brad Pitt-led movie sequences, F1 25 isn’t afraid to take a few creative risks. They may not redefine the genre, but they keep the ride exciting. If you’re a returning player, you’ll feel the difference in every corner. If you’re new, it may just convert you into a fan of the franchise—and possibly the sport itself.

F1 25 is the best game in the series to come out in recent years. This year, it really feels like a ‘complete package.

Ultimately, F1 25 delivers on many of its promises: laser-scanned tracks elevate visual authenticity, enhanced handling provides satisfying feedback, and My Team 2.0 deepens management engagement. AI improvements and reverse circuits offer new experiences, although some features still feel underexplored.

F1 25 feels like a real step up, not just a new number on the box. With immersive career progression and stunning next-gen visuals, it’s a must-play for returning fans. It’s also perhaps the ideal starting point for newcomers looking to jump into the cockpit. F1 25 puts you in control, delivering authentic, rewarding race experiences—whether chasing pole or avoiding the gravel. Due to all of this, I am giving F1 25 the Thumb Culture Gold Award.

F1 25 is once again an excellent driving game, but at the same time provides very modest evolution from previous installments. Braking Point storymode is fun but short lived appetite like always. My Team, Career Mode and F1 World can offer nearly endless hours worth of content for hardcore F1 enthustiasts, if their stomachs aren't already full from previous years.
