Did our multiplayer preview of F1 2011 get you excited? It certainly sounds like a step up from last year. Hopefully TSA will have more on the game in the way of another ‘hands-on’ sometime soon.
A new trailer for the game has been released, titled “Season so Far”. In it you can see the cars, different weather conditions and that safety car.

I do like this trailer, mimicking many events from this years F1 season, looks a lot better in most places.
There is something strange though, maybe with the shadows under the car, gives the impression of floating.

Yup, it gives the impression of a really high ride hight. However, no doubt, in-game it will looks stunning.

Must have taken a bit of time to mimic those events so accurately! Love it!

I’ll love Codemasters forever if, when playing as Hamilton, if you do something stupid and/or crash into someone, Button shouts over the radio: ‘WHAT ARE YOU DOING?’ Highlight of the season for me, with the possible exception of Vettel’s last-lap spin in the same race. :)

Haha, but if each driver has some sort of unique trait, that’s kind of cool.

Nice to see some footage of the safety car, albeit for a couple of seconds.

Hmm just noticed there’s not a single shot of DRS in use in the trailer, shame really.

Watch Developer Diary no.2 and it shows you A saber using DRS.

Awesome trailer, cannot wait for this game, September can’t come soon enough! Must say though, odd music choice, Codies are usually top drawer with the music…

the game looks even more influenced by the tv coverage. i just want to race f1 cars not race them how i watch it. am i making sense ?. yes i am

This has slipped to a buy next year spot for me for now, it’s not done anything wrong as such but I’m just not as excited as I am with other games. Might change before release, we’ll see :)

Love the little nuances within the trailer which reflect actually happenings thus far in the season – Hamilton vs Button incident in Canada, Petrov taking off, Vettel going wide in Canada on last lap etc. Would be amazing if we could replay these stand-out moments and see how you would deal with the situation in the heat of battle. Can be set up as mini-games in an arcade mode.
Can’t wait for this game …

Had this on pre-order for ages now.
This and FIFA are at the top of my ‘can’t wait’ list
beeje13
Have you stolen my list :P
Although that list is quite small, only 2 games i really want this year, need to play BF3 to see how it lives up to the hype.
On a more related note, this game has so many improvements, looking great!
