### 4/5 — ALL PLAYERS STILL WAITING RUSH NEW UPDATE

*2023-11-27*

The season ended in real life and the game needs a new update. Mercedes 2 best Ferrari car 3 Aston 4 and so all the teams with the same order of the constructors' championship. Legendary card for Sergio Perez that I don't know why they didn't do it. The Results of the championship section have to have the same results as in real life, the same races and circuits as they were in real life... This is Urgent, they have to do it and we are all waiting, they made many updates since they put the 2023 season and they never corrected the teams' error, it's time.... Because many of us buy official cars and they have to fix this, how is it possible that we buy Mercedes cars and they are at the same level as the Alpine ones, just like the Aston ones? Above Ferrari and Mercedes and sometimes even above RedBull it is impossible. Also add that we can buy with coins or tokens the different designs that each team used in the different circuits on their cars, it would be spectacular... We hope this happens soon.... Then in the future the laps of the races should increase add pit stop and allow you to select the different types of tires

### 2/5 — Game quickly becomes pay to win

*2023-11-22*

An otherwise great game that has been ruined by the pervasive nature of free to play, pay to win games. Core gameplay is quite fun and definitely the best F1 racing experience I have found on an iPhone so far. 

I appreciate that the game is free to play, but wish the developers try to make money from cosmetic options rather than performance options. In order to upgrade your car and be competitive in online play there’s a certain point where you’re going to need to spend money. Additionally, spending the 2000+ coins to acquire a team’s gives you a huge benefit due to the straight line speed for any Grand Prix style races. 

It doesn’t bother me that people are willing to spend money on this game especially if they’re into F1 and want to support F1 video games in general. However, the outcomes of online plate to how much money somebody has spent on the game is a huge dealbreaker for me. I would love it if they funded their game through cosmetic options, such as custom liveries, helmets, or chassis. If the free to play aspect were removed completely I’d happily give the game a 5/5, but at this point it has just become unplayable unless I either spend money or grind for the hundreds of hours needed to afford a constructor’s car, which just don’t have time for as an adult.

### 4/5 — Amazing game, but a few drawbacks.

*2023-09-18*

First off, I think this is an incredible game, especially for a mobile title. The gameplay feels really smooth and fluid, and the graphics genuinely blow my mind. However, there are a few minor issues that I would like to note. For one, I have had several instances where the game has crashed out of nowhere or lost connection in the middle of a race, which can be especially aggravating in career mode, where you have to pay coins to resume a race. Additionally, the league matchmaking can be incredibly unfair, at times putting you in a game with somebody several leagues or levels ahead of you, pretty much guaranteeing a loss. Now I wouldn’t normally care about this as much as I do, but it happens with a frequency that can make it really difficult to progress. Lastly, this isn’t so much of an issue as it is just some features i wish were included, but I wish there were more driver helmets in the game, as there currently is no available helmet for either of the mclaren or haas drivers, and it would also be amazing to see some of the special liveries that some of the teams ran this year included in the game. But apart from that, I think this is an amazing game. Keep up the good work!

### 5/5 — F1 Racing

*2023-09-18*

First I just want to say I absolutely love the game! An so does my son! The developers killed the lay out of it, Just a few things in my personal opinion that would make this game more appealing, #1 The first thing that I think would be a nice add to the game is being able to having a practice sessions option being able to pick up to ten laps and selecting courses to practice on or have a quick play option as well an being able to unlock parts from quick play instead of just running duals to get stuff, my son started playing an it took him almost a week to get used to the controls an be competitive with the car an not knowing tracks right off the bat, #2 I think adding another lap or two to the career would be a good add as well three laps just doesn’t seem long enough, #3 I think car wise if there’s an option to select older skins from different years an teams having throwback skins from back in the day would add some flavor to the game, #4 with controls being able to have the right side of the screen for gas an brake an the left screen being able to have arrows as an option instead of just the steering whee option so right thumb for gas/brake an left thumb for left/right steering! Whether you guys read these feedback posts or not keep up the great work an hope to see as a paying customer some of these things in future updates!

### 2/5 — Great game has some issues

*2023-08-25*

This game has some great aspects. I love the card aspect of building the car. The reward system is decent that could be refined. There is some glare issues on some tracks that makes it almost impossible to see the track in front of you. Those would be Italy and Silverstone. This game also has an issue with during tools, and during any match, there are server disconnects, which are absolutely positively irritating. It happens far too often. That is some thing that absolutely needs to be fixed ASAP. It’s not an issue on my end at perfectly. Good Wi-Fi. I would also say it needs improvement on getting the actual cars used in real life some of the bar little too expensive.

The server connection issues are absolutely excruciating. Also, the match pairing system is not very good. It will predominantly put you against cars that are far more advanced than yourself. I understand they want me to buy a car, but I did form you not everybody has a in disposable income and can afford a $20 car and a free game!

3rd the devils do not listen to any of the players, which is a common thing with EA. 30 years ago, EA was in a releasing groundbreaking games. Now they’re a shell of themselves. And just predominantly release absolute. Like the game you’re about to download. Download at your own risk.

### 1/5 — Garbage

*2023-08-21*

I give this game the benefit of the doubt with every major update they produce in hopes that the game will actually be enjoyable. They still have fallen short. Hackers are rampant, people will ram you off track in duel mode, the AI is EXTREMELY slow in duels and career mode. Speaking of career mode, I figured they would have made something halfway decent with how long it took them, but it’s a trash system. Once you sign to any decent team (which you can accomplish in about 2 half seasons), you’ll have pace literal seconds ahead of the AI. You’ll qualify 5-6 seconds ahead easily, and you’ll never see the competitors again past the first corner. There’s no actual challenge. Also, the career mode is plagued with the moneygrabbing repair system. Past 50% engine wear, your car is pretty much useless, then you’ll have to spend in game currency or wait 24 hours to repair. You can usually get 2-3 races in (with no contact from the out of control AI cars) before your car is practically limping and won’t see past 150mph on any straight. There’s no system or opportunity to practice driving on any tracks; you’re either doing it in duel mode or career mode, which both carry punishments if you lose. I’m not even sad to see this game be a failure anymore; the developers have had massive amounts of feedback and tons of time to iron out any issues, but refuse to do so. They just want your money.

### 4/5 — Career mode needs a little work

*2023-08-06*

First off I REALY enjoy playing this game. The graphics, handling, and track design make this a must play game. The dual mode in my opinion has nothing wrong with it because I hate to say it but, weather you like it or not the game comes down to skill. The only thing that takes away the star for me is Career mode. Career mode first off is way to easy. I am currently on legend and I can destroy every other bot in qualifying by 5 seconds and my car is not that special. Sometimes I try NOT to get pole just to make it interesting. But I still win anyway because the ai are too easy. Second, the engine damage is just a joke. I can only race two races before my engine power gets over 50% and my car is 20 mph slower. There is one more critic a have but it is small and I think you release it after this review anyways. You only have 8 showdowns. You can’t even get 60% of the drivers helmets because there not available. Your online part of the game is awesome and it is a really fun experience, but can you make career mode a little harder and add the rest of the 2023 driver helmets? Great game! Keep up the good work.

### 1/5 — To F1 Mobile Developers

*2023-03-10*

First off, I want to say that for the most part the devs for this game are trying their best. But as someone who plays the f1 games on console regularly, this game is horrid comparatively. I was just playing career mode in rookie 2 because I dont play this game much and wanted to see if I would enjoy the career mode. I raced at Imola, and in the branded f1 games on pc and consoles, you can use the green strip on the inside wall of the start/finish straight to cut a little bit and perfect your line into the first corner. I tried to use it in this game and what happened? I got dropped from 8th all the way down to 12th because once you hit the green strip its like hitting a wall. Slowed me down from 150 MPH down to 80 MPH. Its like this on other tracks too, and the corner cutting is really inconsistent across tracks. Im not sure if the developers what actually classifies as a corner cut, but for anyone wondering, a true corner cut is when the full car, including the entire tire, is over the white line off the track. If half of your tire is still on the track, it cannot be classified as a corner cut/track limits. For that and a few other things I won’t get into (huge pay to win) I am going to have a hard time coming back to this game. Unless big changes are made to bring it more in line with its predecessors on console and pc.

### 1/5 — Game has been broken since the last update.

*2023-02-12, version 4.4.43*

For staters I can’t believe the games was down for such a long time just to brake it instead of making it better. In dual mode people instead of finding an opening to pass me they can just go tru me like my car is invisible that needs to be removed. Some people have the worst driving line and go all over the track but they get no penalties. Some times you try to push your car to the limits of the track but you get slow down to the point that you lose almost all your speed or you get the (you cut a corner) when you literally are one hair off the track. The AI is just bad. Since the last update I get a lot of ( can’t connect to the server) even in the middle of a game that’s just annoying that your doing your best to be in the first place and then out the blue you get kick out. Some times at the beginning of a race you can’t steer at all is not your Xbox controller nor the built in controller just the game bugging out, you have no other choice then to close the game or quitting the race and losing your hard earned points and making the other guy the winner. Its been one week since I get level 1 players or bots not quite sure what but that makes the game not enjoyable or fair for the other guy that probably just stated the game ( I’m level 45). This game definitely seen better days.

### 3/5 — FIX YOUR GAME

*2022-12-10, version 4.3.19*

First off, this game is alright overall. It is really the only way to enjoy F1 racing on a mobile device. NOW. CAN SOMEONE TELL ME WHY MY GAME CAN CHANGE ORIENTATION? I should not be able to rotate my screen in game. I’ll be in the middle of a duel, turn (tilt to drive: the only way to play competitively) and my screen will go to PORTRAIT MODE and even the steering inverts! It’s completely random too! Also, the ai are insufferable. They brake in corners they should not be braking on and then it’s impossible not to hit them. They spin you randomly, since the physics in this game are completely broken. Also, pro league is COMPLETELY UNFAIR. There in no skill gap. It is literally whoever has the higher performance index wins. I constantly have opponents that PURPOSELY spin the ai, which sit in THE MIDDLE OF THE TRACK and then I run into them. I’m tired of being paired against level 50 players with cars over 2000 pi. Fix your matchmaking, fix the bugs, and for the love of god, fix the screen rotation issue. It’s utterly unplayable. Also, by the way, it would be really nice if losses in the pro league don’t make you lose three times the amount of points as a win.
