Watch the Trailer for the New 'F1 25' Video Game, Coming Soon
EA Sports' new F1 game is out May 27, bringing back both realism and storytelling elements.
The game features a tie-in with the upcoming from Apple.
Some U.S. pre-orders are bundled with free F1 TV access to watch the real-life racing.
Thanks to the behind-the-scenes peek offered by the Drive to Survive documentary team and recent tie-ups with the likes of Lego, it has never been easier to immerse yourself in the current Formula 1 racing season. Now, should you wish to put yourself in the driver's seat and have a go at wheel-to-wheel racing yourself, all you need is a Playstation, Xbox, or PC and some quick reflexes.
Launching on May 27 from EA Sports, F1 25 aims to bring all the excitement of the 2025 season to a digitized experience players can dive into. The reveal trailer is out now, featuring Lewis Hamilton in his new role at Ferrari—arguably the biggest F1 story so far this year—racing against a fictional talented rookie. That'd be you.
Along with all the expected teams and drivers from this year, F1 25 features ultra-realistic, millimeter-perfect, laser-scanned versions of many actual F1 tracks. You can jump in on the hunt for the World Championship through the driver career mode, and there's also a return of the dramatized Braking Point series from 2023. This latter storyline features the fictional Konnersport team moving up from midfield contender to battling for victories.
To build on to the full F1 experience, the game will also feature gameplay based on the upcoming Apple movie F1, launching this summer and featuring Brad Pitt. After the movie opens, playable chapters from the film will be unlocked in-game.
No matter which driver or team is your favorite, there are realistic liveries and helmet designs for all. You can cheer for whatever driver or team you like on the circuit, then hop into the game to see if you can better their result.
Add in a one-month F1 TV pass for U.S. gamers who preorder the Iconic Edition of the game, and you've got all the F1 content you can handle. If you've been watching the racing early this season and thinking you could do better, then here's your chance to prove it.

Nico Rosberg calls for Max Verstappen to be disqualified at end of Spanish GP
Nico Rosberg believes Max Verstappen should have been disqualified from the Spanish Grand Prix after a late collision with George Russell. A late safety car threw the result into chaos, with Verstappen struggling at the restart on hard tyres, with those around him on quicker, soft tyres. Advertisement Having lost third place to Charles Leclerc, Verstappen was then told by his engineer to give fourth place to Russell after the pair made contact at turn 1. Yet when the Dutchman seemed to let his arch-rival through, the Red Bull driver swerved aggressively into the Briton's car. The pair made contact, but a matter of seconds later, Russell did take fourth place. The Brit commented: 'What the f***!' On commentary duties for Sky Sports F1, 2016 F1 world champion Rosberg said of Verstappen's manoeuvre: 'That is bad, that is seriously bad. 'You need to black flag [disqualify] that, there's no other way.' Advertisement Instead, the stewards decided to impose a 10-second time penalty on Verstappen, dropping the Red Bull driver from fifth to 10th in the final standings. Elaborating further after the race, Rosberg added: 'It looked like a retaliation, ramming into the opponent. That's something that is extremely unacceptable, that's why I said black flag.' Verstappen is also under investigation post-race for brief contact made with Leclerc down the main straight after the safety car restart.

Advertisement Of Sunday's incident in Barcelona, Russell remarked: 'I've seen those manoeuvres before in simulators and go-karting, not in Formula 1. 'I'm in P4, he's P10 - I don't know what's going through his mind, it felt deliberate in the moment, it felt surprising. 'I'm not going to give it any thought, we have our problems. It's down to the stewards to decide if it was deliberate or not, Max is such an amazing driver, so many people look up to him, it seems completely unnecessary. 'I'm too close to give my opinion on behalf of the drivers but, in Austin last year, he did some of the best moves ever. Then Mexico, he let's himself down a bit. Imola, one of the best moves, and then this happens. It cost him and his team a lot of points. Advertisement 'I'm not going to lose sleep, we've got our own issues to deal with.' Oscar Piastri won the race in Barcelona from pole, with Lando Norris securing a one-two finish for McLaren and Leclerc finishing in third.

Max Verstappen on the verge of F1 race ban after George Russell collision
Max Verstappen has now got 11 penalty points to his name - 12 points over one year results in a race ban (Getty Images) Max Verstappen is one penalty point away from an F1 race ban after his dramatic collision with George Russell in the closing stages of the Spanish Grand Prix. Verstappen, who had just lost third place to Charles Leclerc after a safety car restart, was told by his race engineer Gianpiero Lambiase to give fourth place to arch-rival Russell, after the pair briefly touched at turn 1. Advertisement The Red Bull driver initially moved over to allow Russell through before swerving aggressively into the Mercedes car. Verstappen was given a 10-second time penalty by the stewards straight after race, dropping him from fifth to tenth, though Nico Rosberg believed the Dutchman should have been disqualified. Yet one hour after the race concluded, Verstappen was given a further three penalty points on his FIA superlicence for the collision, bringing his total to 11 points. A race ban is triggered if a driver accrues 12 points over a 12-month period, as seen with Kevin Magnussen last year. It means Verstappen must avoid a penalty point at the next race in Canada (15 June) in order to avoid a ban for the Austrian Grand Prix (29 June). On 30 June, two of Verstappen's penalty points for a collision with Lando Norris last year in Austria will be wiped, bringing his total back down to nine. Asked about the incident after the race, Verstappen refused to comment. Advertisement 'Does it matter?' he responded. 'Yeah OK, that's great. I prefer to speak about the race, not just one single moment.' Asked further if his dangerous manoeuvres damage his reputation, Verstappen replied: 'Yeah OK, that's your opinion. We'll leave it there.' Verstappen also escaped punishment for the brief moment of contact with Leclerc on the main straight, with neither driver deemed responsible. Russell, who was involved in a heated war of words with Verstappen at the end of last season, believed that Verstappen's move 'felt deliberate in the moment.' Verstappen finished 10th in Spain after the 10-second penalty (Getty Images) 'I've seen those manoeuvres before in simulators and go-karting, not in Formula 1,' he said. Advertisement 'I'm in P4, he's P10. I don't know what's going through his mind, it felt deliberate in the moment, it felt surprising. 'It's down to the stewards to decide if it was deliberate or not, Max is such an amazing driver, so many people look up to him, it seems completely unnecessary. 'I'm too close to give my opinion on behalf of the drivers but, in Austin last year, some of the best moves ever [from Max], then Mexico, he let's himself down a bit. In Imola [last month, one of the best moves, and then this happens. 'It cost him and his team a lot of points.' Nico Rosberg, the 2016 F1 world champion on commentary duties for Sky Sports F1 in Spain, believes Verstappen should have been black-flagged. Advertisement 'That is bad, that is seriously bad,' he said. 'You need to black flag [disqualify] that, there's no other way. 'It looked like a retaliation, ramming into the opponent. That's something that is extremely unacceptable, that's why I said black flag.' Asked how concerned he was about a potential race suspension, Red Bull team principal Christian Horner told the written media: 'You can never guarantee anything. He's just got to keep his nose clean in the next couple of races. 'Then the first points come off at the end of June.' Verstappen now trails championship leader and Sunday's race winner in Barcelona, Oscar Piastri, by 49 points after nine rounds.
