The launch may be imminent, but today Codemasters and Koch Media have revealed the first ever gameplay trailer for F1 2017.
Due for arrival on Xbox One, PS4 and PC come August 25th 2017, F1 2017 not only allows players to drive the latest cars on the grid, but will also give access to 12 of the most iconic of classic speed machines.
You’ll be able to witness the thrill of the race in both the modern racer, and some of the fastest vehicles ever created, as you power your way round the circuits that make up the latest season. You’ll also have access to some short tracks, like Silverstone Short, and given the opportunity to race the iconic street circuit in Monaco at night for the first time in the series.
Lee Mather, Creative Director, says: “We know our fans have loved seeing the classic cars being revealed in the recent weeks, but we know they also want to see the new cars in action as well. The 2017 cars present their own unique challenge as they are incredibly fast but wider and heavier than before, therefore we have had to completely rework the physics system to refine the balance between aerodynamics and tyre grip.
Lee continued: “Taking on Monaco is always a test of your skills and now we have added the ability to take to these iconic streets at night in both modern day and classic F1 cars. We think our fans are going to love it.”
We’ll of course remind you when F1 2017 hits our console, but for now make sure you take a little look at the trailer.
