F1 23's 'Sports Update' adds latest F2 cars and refreshes F1 grid

A new update has dropped for EA SPORTS F1 23, bringing with it all the teams and drivers of the 2023 Formula 2 season.  

As well as the long-awaited addition of Formula 1’s main feeder category, EA and Codemasters have also updated the main event; with the F1 cars enjoying updated vehicle geometry and bodywork to reflect in-season changes. 

As a result, each car on the grid has refreshed liveries, including additional sponsors and updated uniforms for team personnel. 

The 2023 F2 roster allows players to jump into the driving seat of tomorrow’s F1 stars, with former champions Oscar Piastri, Charles Leclerc and George Russell all set to be challenging for wins for years to come. 

The Sports Update also fixes several known bugs, with F1 Esports Series Pro drivers now added to the Icon driver pool in My Team mode. Track limits issues on the Las Vegas Strip Street Circuit have also been resolved, leading to the debutant track’s Time Trial leaderboards being reset. 

The v.1.15 update for F1 23 is available to download now across PlayStation, Xbox and PC formats.
