F1 2016 will support 22 car multiplayer

Codemasters have announced a new set of features that will be found in F1 2016 video game.

The Formation Lap will be appearing for the first time in the franchise and warm their tyres in preparation for the all important start. Both the Safety Car and Virtual Safety Car will feature in this year’s game and they will be complemented by the addition of manual race starts.

The driver will also be able to have manual control over their pit lane entry and braking as they look to minimise the time they lose when pitting. They will also need to brake in time to avoid a penalty for speeding in the pit lane, which also features in this year’s game along with the inclusion of the new five second pit stop penalty.

With multiplayer support for up to 22 drivers, F1 2016 allows players to form a full grid of human players across the 21 circuits, including the tight Baku street circuit, the latest addition to the calendar.

F1 2016 will be released on PC, Xbox One and PC in August.
