CELEBRATE THE LEGACY OF CHAMPIONS IN SEASON 4 OF F1® 24

Unique rewards and iconic Scenarios feature in the latest post-launch update for F1® 24

EA SPORTS™

As we ramp up the season finale of one of the closest title fights in recent years - both in the Constructor’s and Driver’s championship - Season 4 of F1 24’s live service celebrates the legacy of champions past and present.

Experience a Champion’s Legacy in Season 4

Throughout Season 4, running from November 13 - January 6, players across all platforms can take on a new Pro Challenge, Challenge Career, and a selection of iconic Race Scenarios, each featuring a number of unique Champion-themed rewards and customisation items for use throughout the game. 

Here’s what’s coming up over the next few weeks:

Free To Play Weekend (Nov 21 - Nov 25)*

All players across PlayStation, Xbox Series, and PC can join the grid as part of the Free To Play weekend. Those racing in-game through the weekend can level up quickly with Double XP across various game modes to unlock new content and rewards. 

New players can also purchase the game at 60% off the standard retail price from platform retailers during these dates, with all in-game progress and unlocked content saved from the free trial.

Whether you’re a new player who’s looking to hit the ground running, or an existing racer looking to further progress in this season’s Podium Pass, this is a perfect time to get on the grid. Be sure to regularly check your progress Podium Pass as you level up with double XP during the weekend to claim your rewards.

Austin Pro Challenge: Oscar Piastri (Nov 13 - Jan 6)

Another season, another Pro Challenge to take on. This time, you’ll test your skill against McLaren’s Oscar Piastri around the Circuit of the Americas.

Those who watched the race may have noticed a special livery McLaren were running in partnership with Google Chrome. Well, if you claim Bronze by beating Oscar’s time of 1:34.500 around the track, you’ll unlock that same livery design for yourself, equipable on your F1 World car.

That’s not all, though. If you pick up a Silver on the leaderboard you’ll also earn the Chrome Race Suit, and for those that grab Gold, the McLaren Chrome Gloves are waiting.

Challenge Career: Lewis Hamilton (Nov 13 - Jan 6)

Following last season’s Challenge Career featuring Ayrton Senna, we’ve got another G.O.A.T contender in Season 4, as we celebrate Lewis Hamilton’s record-breaking tenure with Mercedes coming to a close, ahead of his move to Ferrari for the 2025 season. 

With six Drivers Championship titles and over 150 podiums, we couldn’t let this amazing career milestone go by without looking back on Lewis’ journey with the silver arrows. 

Take on a series of races at the tracks where the #44 car had its most memorable victories, and unlock rewards for completing each Episode:

  • Episode #1 (Nov 13-22) - Bahrain, Austria, Japan
    • Reward: “End of an Era” Gloves

    • Reward: Double XP Token
  • Episode #3 (Dec 2-11) - Spain, Great Britain, Hungary

To find Challenge Career, head to Career > Challenge Career from the main menu.

Fit for a Champion (Nov 15 - Jan 6)

Season 4 starts with an epic Champions Livery inspired by Max Verstappen and Designed by Lefty Out There. Together the pair have crafted a unique livery for F1® 24 that celebrates Max’s championship wins, mentality, and personal style. 

The livery will be available to all F1® 24 players, just visit your in-game mailbox in the top right corner of the main menu to redeem. Be sure to do so before the message expires on January 6.

Race Scenario: 2021 Abu Dhabi Grand Prix (Dec 2 - Jan 6)

As the 2024 season draws to a close, we can’t help but cast our minds back to the epic showdown between Verstappen and Hamilton in Abu Dhabi in 2021. 

In this special Race Scenario, you can choose to play out either driver’s perspective: behind the visor of Max to repeat history, or as Lewis to change it and take that elusive eighth title. 

Finish in the top 30% of each Race Scenario leaderboard as both drivers, and you’ll earn 2000 PitCoin**; 1000 from each perspective.

Race Scenario: 2022 Belgian Grand Prix (Dec 10 - Jan 6)

Our celebration of champions continues with one of Max Verstappen’s greatest victories, two years ago at Spa-Francorchamps.

Despite starting 14th on the grid, Max put on an outrageous display of raw speed to win the race, and this Scenario tasks you with re-creating that very same performance, albeit in the 2024 Red Bull at a 35% distance race. 

Complete the event to unlock the “Number 1” character pose.

Race Scenario: 2014 Bahrain Grand Prix (Dec 10 - Jan 6)

Season 4’s selection of Race Scenarios is rounded off with a look back to 2014 and Hamilton’s epic battle with teammate Nico Rosberg in Bahrain. 

In this Scenario race, you relive that tense on-track battle from the perspective of Lewis in his 2024 Mercedes, this time battling George Russell for victory. 

Stay ahead to the checkered flag and you’ll unlock the “Hammer Time” emote.

To take any of these Race Scenarios, head to F1 World > Play > Solo & Multiplayer Events.
