F1 2017 is only suitable for those who know and are in love with the world of Formula 1. They would absolutely enjoy every second of the game. However, it’s not recommended for those who are not familiar with this type of racing; they’d better go after other racing titles. |

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 |

Codemasters once again tried to update F1, but every year, with new releases, base game becomes more boring, just like real “Formula 1”, where one or two teams are fighting for titles. The game needs a fresh look. We hope to see a completely updated physics and more realism in the next one. |

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. |

F1 2017 is the best representation of a complicated sport that Codemasters has offered. Offering its deepest and most authentic career mode, it draws players into the sport like no other F1 game ever has. You will learn the in-and-outs of the sport and feel like an engineer yourself. F1 2017 successfully hits 60 FPS at 4K resolution with a sacrifice in graphical detail. The racing is true-to-life on the track, but the A.I. is severely lacking. Fans of the franchise will really enjoy 2017. |

F1 2017 isn’t light years ahead of the already very good F1 2016 but the new cars, retro content, and the juiced-up career mode make a very strong case for the upgrade, and I really appreciated the enhanced force feedback on a wheel. Rich with details and faithful to just about everything that makes contemporary F1 tick, F1 2017 is about as good a simulation of a single, modern motorsport as you can get. |

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. |

Codemasters succeeds in doing better this year with a game which almost improves on all levels. The redesign of R&D through the integration of a huge tree of competence justifies many hours of play, while the addition of historical cars will fulfill the expectations of many fans. However, with all this great work on one side, it is disapointing to see such old graphics on the other side. Nevertheless, F1 2017 is an excellent game close to perfection, which will keep you in front of your TV until the next edition. |

Codemasters liefert auch in diesem Jahr ein Rennspektakel, das seinesgleichen sucht. Die Karriere wurde durch die Einladungsevents gekonnt aufgelockert und die Integration der historischen Rennboliden verleihen ein Gefühl von Einzigartigkeit. Dennoch fehlen weiterhin die Möglichkeit einer Split-Screen-Meisterschaft am heimischen Bildschirm oder der Wunsch nach mehr Individualität beim Erstellen des eigenen Fahrers. In Anbetracht der Konkurrenz, bei der selbst ein FIFA mittlerweile einen Story-Modus bietet, wünsche ich mir für das kommende Jahr einen solchen. Wer würde nicht mal gerne seine Rennkarriere ganz unten starten und an der Hand einer Koryphäe an die Spitze der Königsklasse geführt werden? Es besteht also noch eine Menge Luft nach oben |

F1 2017 flies across the finishing line in great form. Codemasters’ latest has captured the off-track trappings of the world’s most popular motorsport with a hearty R&D component that forms the backbone of its campaign. But behind the wheel the title fares just as well, with the Career mode implementing Invitational events to break up the routine – many of which are designed around a robust selection of historical rides. Factor in the rule altering Championships and a handling model that’s able to accommodate a wide range of skillsets, and you have a racer deserving of its podium place. |

F1 2017 has improved considerably and brought the long-missed Classics into the present. Codemasters is now in a good place with the series. Things have changed in the real Motorsport, but there some subtleties you wouldn’t normally notice, like the wider stance that Formula 1 cars now have. The game is full of changes and improvements, like the handling due to that wider stance, and F1 2017 sits as a game that’s balanced all-around. While F1 2017 is the official videogame of the 2017 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP, it is also the only one, and more importantly – it is the best one. |
