The sense of speed is maybe unparalleled, while the rain effect is absolutely gorgeous. Conclusionį1 2011 is more of an evolution than a revolution, but that still makes it an excellent game. Driving manually while using KERS and DRS is certainly a challenge, but the great thing about F1 2011 is that you don't have to make things that tough! The artificial intelligence of other cars is great, giving you interesting and fun competition even in one player mode. Careers are still excellent though, and you can tailor the difficulty and detail to your wishes, which will keep everyone happy. It looks good, but means getting to the action is longer than it needs to be. Like its predecessor, and other Codemasters racing games, F1 2011 houses its career in an attractive motor-home which acts as your menu hub. There are two new circuits, the Nurburgring and Buddh International Circuit.

Multiplayer is still excellent, and now features split-screen mode. The first gives drivers a quick power boost for overtaking, while DRS allows drag to be reduced while racing, again giving a possible speed boost. In terms of realism, there is now an optional safety car for people who want the full F1 experience, and the KERS and DRS systems have been introduced too.
