Having control over my own team gave me a real reason to give a damn. It might be a game of fast, arse-to-the-wall racing, but the long game is a marathon, not a sprint.
The idea is that you probably won’t win the championship in your first season, maybe not even the second or third, but over time you’ll grow your business, stockpile funds and improve your capabilities along the way. It’s not ideal, but starting out in business never is – and I can tell you that from personal experience. You also get to pick a teammate to take to the track with you, but you’ve also got a budget to manage, so spending big on a decent engine might mean having to settle for a less than ideal co-driver. You start by creating your own avatar, then choosing your team’s name, picking sponsors, and eventually choosing which manufacturer you will entrust to build you an engine worthy of the racing gods. It puts you not only in the driver’s seat but also the throne of the racing brand you now own.
F1 2020’s MyTeam mode is a fantastic blend of FIFA’s dramatic The Journey Mode, a little bit Football Manager, and a little bit of business simulation. This time around, you don’t have to take any of it.
F1 2020 REVIEW DRIVER
You’re a driver for a company, and if they don’t like the way you’re racing, they’re happy to let you know it. There are rules and regulations and you’re constantly getting gip in your ear for doing the wrong thing. For casual players like myself, this has always been a massive turn off. The problem with F1 games, or at least the way I see it, is that they’re typically simulators and catered towards the hardcore F1 fans – the kind who happily travel away to race weekends to catch a glimpse of Lewis Hamilton for 2.4 seconds as he blitzes past in his souped-up machine. I’m hooked, and I think you could be too. F1 2020 has got me by the short and curlies, and I’ve found myself sitting up into the early hours of the morning, bemoaning my bad luck and my idiot teammate driver. But, when I’m given the choice between something like DriveClub, Forza Horizon, and any number of the officially licensed F1 games, you can bet your last breath that the F1 games are left out in the cold.īut something has changed this year.
