For some reason, I just can’t take this trailer seriously

[DarkRula]

Um... That's a trailer, yeah.

Are they really going into a character-focused story with this one? That's what the trailer is making me think, but obviously it could just be the usual hype marketing in effect (not that the trailer even gives that).

Im pretty sure in my 2019 season Devin Butler lasted one season before he was sacked by alpha Romeo. Nice to see Codemasters bringing him back

[Robbo-92]

Now I’m on the Game Pass bandwagon the only way I’ll be getting at launch is if it’s on Game Pass via EA Play, if not I’ll be waiting for a sale as the prices in some countries have gone up massively.

Um... That's a trailer, yeah.

Yeah they’re going full FIFA and adding their version of ‘The Journey’.

Why do games always have such crappy trailers?

[floydfreak]

Looks like F1 could be heading back to Istanbul Park this year after all.

See when I loaded up F1 2020 for the first time. My immediate thought was "Where is Devon Butler?" Like where is that guy who gave the mouth and never delivered, whom I smashed in every race? I can see where they are going with this, it will be aimed at the Drive to survive crowd. The people who think F1 needs forced rivalries or some gooseberry fool.

I just want to play the 2021 season as myself, no frills, no drama, and no Devon Butler

[Robbo-92]

All I’ll want to do when I get it is take Stroll’s seat alongside Vettel and win a championship with Aston Martin. With 2021 being announced today I’ve loaded up 2020 again and resumed my Alpha Tauri career, will be doing the Dutch Grand Prix tomorrow. It really is a great racing game.

Must just have “You spin me round” through his mind constantly

[Robbo-92]

Mazepin had another spin right at the end of the session too at least he’s taking over from Vettel as the prolific spinner

[Victor Mildew]

strawberry floating lol

[Robbo-92]

At least it’s looking close between Mercedes and Red Bull again after FP1. Didn’t realise Mazepin had binned it in that second spin

Love it!

If FP3 is anything to go by, Verstappen is going to smash qualifying.

Very much doubt Aston Martin’s complaints will get very far anyway, wanting the rules changed back for the rest of the year before a big regulation change next year, they may as well just fully focus on that once the upgrades they’ve got in the pipeline are on the car.
