F1 2016 F1 2016 Hockenheim Onboard with Nico Hülkenberg

Paul Jeffrey · Jul 28, 2016

Codemasters have released yet another video of the new F1 2016 game in action, this time on-board the Force India number 27 of German driver Nico Hülkenberg.

As with recent video's, today's release showcases the scene of the upcoming Formula One Grand Prix, this time at Germany's Hockenheim Circuit. Formula One 2016 is due to be released on August 19th for Xbox One, PS4 and Windows PC and features a substantially enhanced offline experience in comparison to previous incarnations of the Formula One games franchise.

Judging by the on-board footage from this video, and previous releases, it looks like the new game installment has received plenty of attention to the way the cars handle out on track. From the preview videos it looks likely that players will experience a more lively driving model than previous titles, as can be seen by the many on throttle steering corrections required during the exit of some of the slower corners track. Previous editions of the game have come under criticism for rather bland handling and it appears Codemasters have gone some way to addressing these complaints with the new title.

F1 2016 On-board Hockenheim:

Codemasters need a success with this game after many less than popular Formula One releases in recent years, and I for one am looking forward to seeing what F1 2016 brings come August 19th.

Seriously? Do you mean that? Can you tell me who does better, more immersive tracks? I would codies tracks in RF2 or AMS.

Yeah seriously. Any laser scanned track far better imo. Pcash for one

Sector 3.

If only S3 had laser-scan data for all of their tracks.

Not take away anything from them though. They do outstanding work either way.

I did say best looking tracks. They have more going on. But hey, your choice as it is mine. I personally think that codies tracks look far better than any of the other sims versions.
