F1 22 Offers First In-Game Look at the Miami International Autodrome


EA Sports has shared a preview of the Miami GP circuit from the upcoming F1 22 game, including a teaser of the supercars that will be included in this year's title.

Just days before the real Formula 1 teams take to the track for the first time in Miami, the F1 22 team has shared some cinematic clips from the new racing venue.

F1 22 will include the Miami International Autodrome, a circuit which has yet to see racing action. This continues a recent improvement to the series' approach to in-game tracks. In recent editions the Codemasters / EA team has added tracks into the game that were not present at release to try and keep up with last minute scheduling changes to the real F1 calendar due to COVID.

F1 22 will be released on July 1st sporting a new naming convention for the series, and will include VR for PC users and a number of other features fans have been asking for in recent years. If you watch the preview below until the end, you'll also catch a quick glimpse of a McLaren 720S Spider, which will be among the supercars featured in F1 22.

Miami's circuit is 5.412 kilometers long, and includes 19 corners, three DRS zones and one faux marina. Racing action takes place this weekend starting on Friday with two free practices, and culminating in a 57 lap race on Sunday, May 8th at 15:30 EST.

I just hope the VR support will be as good as AMS2 and not as terrible as PCARS3 :unsure:
As a racing game, i liked the previous versions for simulation of the weekend, the AI and the whole F1 experience.

I really hated all the podium pass stuff and probably will also hate all the F1 life style stuff in this upcoming version. But let's be honest an official F1 game in VR, that's an instant buy.

Who cares about racing an Mclaren 650s on the same track you can run an F1 car instead?

Another comment:

Usually F1 games look realistic to my eyes while well optimised. I noticed that they don't improve the game alot every year. In the graphics department for example: One year they add fog (we call it haze?) and one year they remove it. That's their solution to spare the money of R&D.

Now, this is supposed to be a totally new engine. A first preliminary check at the graphics, this doesn't trick my eyes to be real and you can detect it's a game since the first tenth of a second of a glance. But maybe I'm wrong, graphics should only become better not worse.

It's the same game engine like last year. Graphics are the same, not gonna change much.

I was shocked honestly, but I'm not saying I'm right, maybe it's just my eyes or my screen settings or so. But please go a few comments up and find the trailer for F1 2020 that I posted (I haven't played or checked 2021). Then tell me aren't the graphics way, way more realistic than this iteration of the game?

As a brazilian I must say it has nothing to do with brazilian carnival or any other brazilian music. ;)

As a brazilian myself I disagree. It is clearly carnival samba remixed with something else (latino style). I don't like, but I don't like samba as well...

The game... well looks horrible, they didn't bother to make different steering wheels for the cars... I don't expect anything good from the physics side also.

No man... musically, samba have his own rhythm figures. Zero samba there.

But it is not the point... let's leave room for the discussion about the game. :)

Very (very!) bad textures for a 2022 game, by the way.

This is an ad. It is most likely not a faithful representation of the final game.

Not trying to defend the makers of the game, by the way, as I am not sure if I will buy it. But to judge it based on an ad is a bit premature, in my opinion.

Ok, a game that works kind of a year subscription, almost as expensive as Iracing. Fifa’s business model. Not for me this year. I have 2019 and I’ll wait another 2-3 years before buying another one.

Fascinating how many people classify something as not OK just because they're not used to it.

You are very much OK with RAP/ Hiphop music circulating in your children's schools although a big part of it is loaded with indescent words or criminality promotion. And when someone presents a new music genre to you, you bash it. Ask yourself this: Do you dare to bash RAP for example? then why you dare to bash something because it sounds Brasillian?

can't spell C.R.A.P without RAP. :D

this is a trailer made to feed the F1 hype currently forced for the new Miami track.
Not more, no less. Mostly made for Americans
Don't take it too serious

Never pre order, wait until the product is released and working. It's not a limited quantity item so paying before release provides no benefit to you and increases the incentive for the publisher to release a sub standard product at launch. Proof ? Look at almost all AAA games with preorders, how many are fully working on day one?

Christ almighty, what a let down that was. Same stupid generic music that just does not say it's an F1 game. Typical of EA.

Rap/Hip hop pure shite IMO. Sepultura (Cavalera Brothers only) for the win! ;)
