In a series of firsts for the F1 franchise, F1 2020 offers ‘My Team’. This major new game mode allows players to create their F1 team and take their place alongside the established 2020 line-up, with a new driver-manager experience offering a unique insight into the world of F1.

My Team and the well-established and critically acclaimed Career mode will allow players more flexibility with the choice of three season lengths. Players can choose from the original full 22 race season, and shorter 10 and 16 race season options, which now includes Hanoi Circuit and Circuit Zandvoort.

For social play with friends, two-player split-screen makes its welcome return, alongside a host of new options designed to help new players and adjust the F1 challenge to match their expertise. These modes are in addition to the core F1 and F2 racing experiences which remain as challenging as ever for those who love the intensity of simulation racing.

Starting today, players on Xbox One and PS4 can download a free trial of F1 2020.

Offering options to suit every style of play, the trial features My Team and the return of split-screen for competitive couch play. Plus, with the introduction of the new accessible handling, players of all levels can compete the moment they take to the starting line.

In the F1 2020 My Team trial, players begin by creating their team, picking a Formula 2™ teammate to race alongside, and compete in the first race weekend in Australia. Split-screen racing at the Austrian Red Bull Ring and all casual handling mode options are also available. Should players decide to upgrade to the full game, progress made in the trial will be automatically carried over alongside access to staple series inclusions such as, Career, Time Trial, weekly events, classic car challenges, and online multiplayer.

“The F1 2020 free trial offers something for every race fan with the inclusion of My Team, casual handling, and split-screen,” said Lee Mather, F1 Franchise Game Director at Codemasters. “Whether you’re an avid F1 fan who’s never played before, or you’re a returning veteran player, there’s plenty to enjoy.”

F1 2020 is available on PS4, Xbox One, PC and Google Stadia for $59.99.
