F1 2017 Reviews
Although not as impenetrable to newcomers as earlier entries, F1 2017 in some ways falls victim to the curse of annual releases; with such a rigid release schedule in place the opportunity to meaningfully expand upon last year's effort is reduced and often the best you get is possibly a new mechanic and a whole heap of fine-tuning of established mechanics.
F1 2017 is an impressive game. It not only retains the feel and flavour of Formula One racing, it makes it all accessible.
F1 2017 is certainly a good F1 simulation and the career mode will keep many people busy for months to come
If you’re a die-hard petrol-head like me, F1 2017 is an absolute must-buy. As fun as I’m sure the upcoming Forza 7 on Xbox One and GT Sport on PS4 will be this year, there are few experiences as exhilarating as driving an F1 monster of a car through the twisting streets of Monaco, and Codemasters’ newest entry delivers the definitive experience.
With several improvements, F1 2017 is more beautiful and more complex than F1 2016. A great game, but not yet a masterpiece.

If you're a fan of racing games, F1 2017 should be considered an essential purchase — even if, like me, you don't follow the sport. The racing is seat of your pants stuff just like it ought to be, and its career mode is simply phenomenal and offers tens of hours of in-depth gameplay. With F1 2017, Codemasters may have just made the best Formula 1 game ever, and I just can't wait to see how they aim to top it.
So yes, it seems that we have finally got it – the one true to life Formula One racing experience we have been begging for in recent years.
F1 2017 is a satisfying experience of a Formula 1 race and it's the closest thing to the real-life experience. The game has tried to simulate these races accurately and the details are amazing. You really feel the pressure of a real race when you are playing F1 2017 and that's what you expect from a good simulator. Career Mode is better than ever and the improvement is very conspicuous. The Online Mode is good as well and you really get a nice Formula 1 package by getting this game. Of course, there are some minor bugs and problems but nothing serious to worry about. If you love speed and racing games you will enjoy F1 2017. This is the closest you can get to a Formula 1 race.

All in all, F1 2017 blew my expectations out of the water. My interest in racing titles had been waning, so trying the F1 series was one of my best decisions in a while. F1 2017 revived my interest in racing with its immersion and polish. The simulation is deep but allows casual racers to enjoy everything that it has to offer, and the career mode provides lasting appeal and value while adding a human touch to it all. Codemasters has brought a new level of simulation and enjoyment to racing games, and racing fans should snag F1 2017 and keep an eye out for F1 2018. I know I will.
Bigger and better is every way, F1 2017 gives the franchise the shake-up fans have wanted for several years.
When it comes to authenticity and racing fun, Formula 1 2017 is the total package.
F1 2017 is even better than its predecessor, something that can be considered quite an achievement. The expanded career mode is the key point of the game, and the return of classic cars adds even more to the whole package. All this and the refined gameplay makes F1 2017 the definitive experience for F1 addicts.

One of the best formula one racing simulator that is currently available on the market. Codemasters have managed to outdo their own work.
F1 2017 isn't a game without flaws. An extremely steep learning curve and graphical hiccups during intense racing moments can push players away from what is otherwise an incredible game. Still, with a variety of gameplay options and the deepest career mode a racing sim has ever seen, there's no doubt that F1 2017 is the best in the history of the series.
Fast cars, insane G-Forces, and you behind the wheel. F1 2017 invites you to live the life of a Formula One driver, in the best iteration of the Codemasters F1 game series - with you right at the center of it all.
F1 2017 is a huge evolution of the Formula 1 franchise, thanks to a great variety of contents and addition that Codemasters has managed to add to its formula, providing one of the best racing simulators ever made.

F1 2017 feels like the final realisation of several years of work, but it also ushers in another phase for the annual series. In terms of core gameplay, the handling models, the force feedback, and the physics engine have all been drastically improved, resulting in a greater sense of control and a much better chance of interpreting the car when its forces are out of balance. Improving this core gameplay aspect alone, whilst addressing the major bugs of last year (like the dodgy AI), leads to a much more immersive and authentic driving experience. Overall, considering the impressive amount of additional content - especially new short course variations, the introduction of classic cars, the new championship mode, the redesign work on many existing tracks, and the improvements to presentation and cut-scenes - F1 2017 certainly is an impressive package, which hardcore fans will find difficult to resist.
Overall, F1 2017 is another successful title from Codemasters. Those who enjoy F1 will find what they wanted in this game. But gaining this experience will be a very challenging task for newer players that can force them to quit playing

With over fifteen different race tracks to test you, a range of weather conditions and the unlimited possibilities for modifying the numerous cars available, F1 2017 is anything but repetitive. The tiny details in this game make this the most authentic driving experience yet. One that truly puts you in the driver’s seat.
