The inclusion of formation laps (for warming tyres and brakes) and manual starts are good examples of the types of minute detail players can expect to find, some of which are perhaps somewhat pointless yet, at the same time, it's a joy that these things are in there.Įspecially on the back of last year's failings, it doesn't take much playtime before the player will sense how much better aligned with its vision this iteration is. Instead it wisely opts to prioritise the purists. It's extremely rich in the finer-details of F1 racing, specifically not making the mistake of worrying about how it might affect casual gamers. Taking a page out of DiRT Rally's book, it's not afraid of committing to a high-intensity sim-like experience, with all the trimmings. Pleasingly, F1 2016 maintains the impressive core gameplay mechanics of its predecessor and reintroduces all the features that were formerly absent, such as the career mode and the safety car. It was also held back by the complete lack of a career mode, a staple for the franchise and for driving games at large. However, while its core was hugely compelling, it did lack a certain attention to detail, such as the glaring absence of a safety car or in-depth stats to review. Its focus on providing an authentic experience, with realistic handling and a great sense of intensity, whether behind a wheel or pad, was its greatest strength. F1 2015 reached a new pinnacle strictly in gameplay terms for the series.
