F1 2021 welcomes 7 legendary drivers

After Ayrton Senna and Alain Prost on F1 2019, Michael Schumacher on F1 2020, the new official F1 game now includes a total of 7 iconic drivers from the top category of motor racing!

In order to determine who the best driver to sign for your team is, Codemasters (recently acquired by EA Sports) has implemented a driver rating system that can help players choose their ideal garage mate. Legendary drivers will be available in the “My Team” mode, which as the name suggests, allows players to create a team and lead it to the top of the championship!

Let’s review the 7 iconic drivers of this F1 2021 in ascending order, according to the rating given to them by the game.

Felipe Massa with a rating of 86. The Brazilian began his F1 career in 2002 with Sauber before joining Ferrari, with whom he finished as vice-world champion in 2008, behind a certain Lewis Hamilton who was then securing his first title.

David Coulthard with a score of 87. The Scottish driver is particularly known for having been a rival of Michael Schumacher in 2001. He had finished the season in second place at the wheel of his McLaren.

Nico Rosberg with a score of 89. Probably one of Lewis Hamilton’s biggest rivals, it took the German 3 years to finally defeat his childhood friend and win the drivers’ title in 2016.

Jenson Button with a rating of 90. The most phlegmatic British driver in Formula 1 makes his grand appearance in F1 2021. Will you offer a second title to the 2009 world champion?

Alain Prost and Ayrton Senna respectively with a rating of 93 and 94. The protagonists of the most iconic duel in motor sports are back on your consoles. The two drivers share 7 titles between them!

And of course Michael Schumacher will always be part of the adventure. With a rating of 94, there is no doubt that the seven-time World Champion will be the choice of many players.

See you on Friday, July 16 for the official release of F1 2021!
