Improvements all around make this game more enjoyable than the previous iteration. It's still a very niche market, but F1 does an excellent job of letting you indulge or ignore as much of the F1 experience as you wish.
I found it more unforgiving to drive, which is more realistic but does mean that people used to arcade style racers may be surprised how little grip F1 cars can have at times. The garage menus are still basic but that they appear organically in the garage rather than just some list of options is immersive.
I would have preferred seeing the 'training' portion done in a lower class of car, or perhaps even a season in the lower class to both serve as training as well as decide what teams available to sign with as an F1 rookie.
If you are into open wheel racing, the choices are pretty slim to begin with. But F1 is a great racing sim that is clearly an effort of passion for the devs, a real joy to drive, and gets better each year.
