There has been minimal disruption for the F1® 2020 development team as a result of COVID-19 and everything is on schedule for the July 10th release date.

In a series of firsts for the F1® franchise, F1® 2020 offers 'My Team'. This major new game mode allows players to create their F1® team and take their place alongside the established 2020 line-up, with a new driver-manager experience offering a unique insight into the world of F1®. Additionally, F1® 2020 will appeal to a broader, casual audience with the re-introduction of two-player split-screen, alongside a host of new options designed to help new players adjust the F1® challenge to match their expertise.

Frank Sagnier, Chief Executive at Codemasters, said:

"F1® 2020 promises to be our biggest and most innovative title to date. We're bringing new game modes to our core simulation players alongside accessible features that will appeal to the casual racing fan. With sporting events currently on hold around the world, our F1® game is seeing incredible engagement as professional drivers, esports players and celebrities race online in the F1 Esports Virtual Grand Prix series, replicating the original F1® calendar."
