Formula 1® Drivers Guess Their 'My Team' Rating
Watch the drivers as they unveil and debate their ‘My Team’ Driver Ratings
F1® 23
Max Verstappen, Charles Leclerc, George Russell, Lando Norris, Kevin Magnussen, Valtterri Bottas, Nyck de Vries and other drivers from the 2023 grid participated in a ‘Guess the Rating’ challenge during their visits to Monaco and Barcelona and showed their reactions as they unveiled their ratings.
In order to calculate the launch day ratings, EA SPORTS compiled and analysed the drivers’ real-life results and performances from the 2023 Formula 1® season up to and including this year’s FORMULA 1 MIAMI GRAND PRIX 2023. With the help of F1® experts, Anthony Davidson and Alex Jacques, to look beyond the pure data and separate man from machine, the studio has updated its algorithm to be more representative of a driver’s current form and less reliant on their legacy. The dynamic ratings in the game’s My Team mode will update every few races, reflecting the action and drama on and off the track.
Watch the drivers as they unveil and debate their ‘My Team’ Driver Ratings
The dynamic ratings are broken into four categories alongside an overall score. The categories are:
- Experience (EXP): This is based on the number of race starts a driver has over the course of their career
- Racecraft (RAC): The driver’s ability to work their way through the pack and finish in a higher position than where they started
- Awareness (AWA): The less time spent in the Steward’s room will help drivers here. Real-world punishments will impact the score in this category
- Pace (PAC): Benefits those who get closest to the fastest qualifying and race lap times. A driver beating their teammate is also taken into consideration
- Rating (RTG): The combination of the previous four ratings. This overall rating will go up and down throughout the season based on performance
The full in-game F1® 23 Driver Ratings for launch are here.
Driver Ratings are a key element of ‘My Team’, the driver-owner game mode which gives players the opportunity to create their own Formula 1® legacy as one of their favourite real-world teams or as the 11th pair on the grid. Players will be able to enjoy several of F1® 23’s new features within the ‘My Team’ mode including the highly anticipated Las Vegas Strip Circuit™ and Losail International Circuit, community requested 35% race distance and red flags, which build upon the excitement and strategy in game, and upgraded handling and Precision Drive™ controller technology for enhanced control and confidence.
The Champions Edition of F1® 23, launching on June 13, also features 8 new My Team Icons including Nigel Mansell, Kamui Kobayashi, Pastor Maldonado, and Jamie Chadwick.
F1® 23 will release across PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation®4, Xbox One, and PC via EA App, Epic Games Store, and Steam.
