Per questo, siamo assolutamente lieti di aver resuscitato la più grande rivalità di F1® tra Ayrton Senna e Alain Prost ", ha dichiarato Paul Jeal, F1® Franchise Director di Codemasters. "La loro rivalità iniziò proprio nella stagione del 1984 e raggiunse uno dei vertici più drammatici di sempre nel primo giro del Gran Premio del Giappone durante la stagione 1990. È una rivalità che è andata oltre lo sport ed è considerata la più grande di tutti i tempi dai fan di F1®. Sappiamo che la nostra community adorerà che le due leggende di questo sport siano state finalmente immortalate insieme nel nostro gioco.”
“Siamo estremamente felici di portare la FIA Formula 2 Championship nel franchise. È sempre stata una delle funzionalità più richieste dalla nostra community e arriva in un momento perfetto con i primi tre piloti del 2018, George Russell, Lando Norris e Alexander Albon che si stanno dirigendo verso la F1® per questa stagione. Non vediamo l'ora di svelare maggiori dettagli su come questa sia integrata nella modalità carriera nelle prossime settimane.”
