F1.10 1 Update 2022 Patch Notes
PRESENTATION OF PORTIMAO IN F1 2022
The Autodromo Internacional do Algarve, also known as Portimao, is just half an hour from the city of its namesake. It's a track well-known for its elevation changes, with 15 truly glorious corners to cover.
While Valtteri Bottas put his Mercedes on pole in this year's Portuguese Grand Prix, it was a decisive victory for Lewis Hamilton, who took the checkered flag 29 seconds before second-placed Max Verstappen crossed the line.
Apart from some winter testing in 2022/09, last year's Grand Prix was the first Formula 1® race at Portimao, although some drivers on the grid have raced here earlier in their careers. Now is the time for you to set foot on the Portuguese circuit.
Once the update is downloaded, Portimao will be available for you to race in Time Trials, Grand Prix, Real Season Start and Online. If you're in the middle of a career save, you won't need to start over to experience Portimao. Whether in My Team or Driver Career, he will appear for selection in your next season. All-new career saves will have Poritmao available from the start.
Aston Martin safety car
For the first time, the F1 2022® season saw the introduction of two official safety cars. Alongside the highly recognizable (but now red) Mercedes AMG, the green Aston Martin Vantage will take on Safety Car duties at some races.
Trigger the safety car in the following races and you'll see the special green Aston Martin Vantage leading the pack:
- Bahrain
- Monaco
- Canada
- Your country
- Grande Bretagne
- Netherlands
- Singapore
- Russia
- Japan
- Australia
- Saudi Arabia (when added in game)
- Abu Dhabi
Performance Update
Car performance has been updated so that it now reflects much more what is happening on the track at the moment. As a result, we'll be wiping the F1® Time Trial Rankings.
Additionally, we made some minor changes to the handling model to remove an unrealistic element with low-speed cornering, which will enter the game as soon as AI recycling is complete.
Livery updates will also arrive in October, updating the look of the teams.*
The information taken above is taken from the game's official website. We'll try to update this post if any more patch notes are revealed. F1 2022 is now available for PC, PS5, Xbox Series X/S, PS4 and Xbox One platforms.
