Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup

FIA Formula 2 already included in F1 Codemasters game since F1 2019. FIA F3 and Porsche Mobil 1 Supercup (both F1's de facto support race tournaments) are not included so far. F1 Codemasters must learn from Milestone's MotoGP series and also Monster Games's NASCAR Heat Series how to include multiple categories.

Because Codemasters are rubbish and their F1 games have been crap :lol:

For real though they're a fairly small company (compared to other yearly sports game developers... EA...cough cough) and they think people won't be interested with this additional content in an F1 title so won't divert resource to developing it. Don't forget they get all your data from how long you play, what game modes, whether you actually set up the car, run practice sessions, AI difficulty...etc so they probably have the research to say that F2 isn't used that much.

I think that’s spot on. 99% of players will spend 99% of their time racing F1 cars. They’ll know that it’s not worth the time and resource putting more categories than F2 into the game.
