F1 2012 immersed drivers into the world of motorsport more than ever before, introducing a new Young Drivers Test where players had to earn their F1 seat by completing tutorials and hitting specific objectives.

The new Season Challenge also threw the gauntlet down to players, asking them to secure the 2012 FIA Formula One Word Championship title in only 10 races.

IGN said of the game: ‘equal parts simulation and re-creation of the real world events, Codemasters Birmingham has done a magnificent job of capturing the precision of the vehicles and the excitement of individual event.’
