While I do not think the game does enough to celebrate Formula 1's 70th anniversary, the rest of the elements, the actual important parts to represent the motorsport, are rather excellent and the added assists means anyone can pick up a controller and play.

If you're an F1 fan, a racing fan or just a slightly interested outsider, make sure that F1 2020 by Codemasters is in your rotation. The racing genre has a strong presence in this year's summer and fall lineup, and with the addition of F1 2020, it just got even stronger.

F1 2020 is a natural evolution of the series, too stuck to the past of it, with very few changes.

Brilliantly authentic, incredibly immersive, F1 2020, for me, is one of the best racing games I have played for a long time. Managing your team is a brilliant addition that will perhaps entice new players on-board. The game is very user friendly, It has a massive amount of modes, features and options that will suit any type of player of every skill level. It looks good, sounds great and performs very well. Right, I am off, this F1 team is not going to manage itself.

Overall the game is the same as F1 2019 with some tracks redesigned and with the My Team mode added. It should give people a couple seasons to go through instead of career mode, which is still available for those who want to do both. We may not be too far away from having an F1 motorsport manager game or even an add on if this keeps going, maybe for those more interested in managing rather then racing.

Writing a conclusion for the Formula One game is always difficult as the core concept of the game hardly changes from year to year, but this year's effort has undoubtedly taken a big step forward. The ability to make and manage your own F1 team is something which racing fans can only dream of, and the way Codemasters has achieved this with F1 2020 is remarkable. The way it gradually grows over time like a carefully-watered plant, without overwhelming players with high-level F1 politics (crucially not making it too mundane, either) makes the entire experience very rewarding.

F1 2020 has taken key fundamentals from previous iterations and built upon a strong foundation to include a stellar, engaging and fantastic My Team career mode. The authenticity of the product has also continued to live up to the high standards set by the predecessors and the inclusion of split screen multiplayer as well as the options for more casual modes of play has made F1 2020 not only incredibly accessible for newcomers but also new and varied for veterans of the franchise. This is easily the best F1 game to date and contender for one of the best simulation racers of the generation.

F1 2020 is a great game, guaranteed fun for players of any level that enjoy racing games. It's hard to imagine that Codemasters could make a Formula 1 game technically better than this for the current generation of consoles. On the other hand, even with the interesting My Team mode, I see few features that justify buying the 2020 version if you already have the previous version. Maybe the split screen could make the investment worth it for those who want to play locally with friends. And of course, for fans and for those who don't own F1 games from recent years, F1 2020 is worth it.

Codemasters has delivered a masterful racing experience with F1 2020. Despite the heavy jargon-filled opening, there are plenty of helpful tutorials that break down everything to make this easy-to-understand for those who may not necessarily be car enthusiasts. For those who are after a deep and engrossing racing experience, the My Team Career mode is a joy to play through, with plenty of features to deep-dive into that extends across many hours. Whether playing online or offline, the developer has put forth one of the best racing experiences that can be enjoyed by F1 fans or newcomers alike.

F1 2020 started on pole and easily kept the advantage. No records were break, but neither the failures were made.

This year's edition might be iterative on the track, but the off-track improvements show that Codemasters hasn't yet run out of ideas yet either.

F1 series farewell to the 8th generation of video games couldn't have been more glorious. F1 2020 is a superb racing game that is made with lots of care, is packed with quality, details and content, and is a perfect option for both arcade and simulation fans.

This is the pinnacle of Formula 1 in videogame form. In a year fraught with difficulties for real world motorsport, Codemasters have delivered a solid experience that should keep you in the hot seat, especially with the immersion factor of the new My Team mode.

F1 2020 continues to offer a great sim racing experience, and boosts its value by adding an engaging management mode. Elsewhere however, the presentation remains underwhelming, alongside a scattering of minor technical issues.

F1 2020 is the same experience we saw last year and the year before in terms of gameplay, graphics and the general atmosphere of the world of Formula 1, but this version shines with the “deepest” My Team mode in the history of the series, as well as the return of the split screen feature with many cars and tracks too.
