Is there any clearer sign of a generation’s twilight than the return of spoof and parody? Codemasters Racing’s Formula 1 titles have been one of the undisputed successes of recent years, injecting a sense of speed that only arcade racers have been able to capture. Given theirs and the sport’s success since 2010, stepping sideways and reaching out to a new audience was somewhat inevitable. F1 Race Stars is a demonstration that parody and charm alone cannot validate a mechanically shallow game.

"I love watching the Formula 1 now, but the fast cars and wheel to wheel racing made it a sport that I couldn’t appreciate when I was younger. The races were long and I just wanted to see what cartoons were on. But as you get older and learn to appreciate the technology that goes into each car and the extreme action that season can shape up to contain, you get hooked into a sport that is so much fun to watch and even more fun to try and explain to others."
