The general sentiment around the game is positive regarding its visual appeal and game modes like 'My Team', which allow for an immersive experience. However, this is tempered by frustration over persistent bugs, performance issues, and unrealistic AI behavior. Some improvements over previous versions are noted, but they are overshadowed by technical flaws and a perception of predatory monetization.

Positive Points

  • Players frequently report performance issues such as crashes, long load times, and stutters even on high-end systems.
  • The AI behavior is inconsistent, often showing unrealistic speed advantages and poor racing intelligence.
  • Microtransactions and paid DLCs are criticized as unnecessary money grabs.
  • Mixed Points

  • The game has made improvements over F1 24, particularly in graphics and handling, yet many players still find the changes insufficient.
