Codemasters has premiered Circuit Zandvoort, the first of two new races added to F1 2020, the official videogame of the 2020 FIA FORMULA ONE WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP.
Originally scheduled for this weekend in the F1 calendar, Circuit Zandvoort returns for the first time since 1985. The virtual hot lap features the car of Red Bull Racing’s Max Verstappen on his home circuit.
Nestled amongst the coastal dunes in the province of North Holland, Circuit Zandvoort is a traditional style racetrack. In preparation for its return in 2020, the circuit has new paddock and run-off areas, with sections of the track enhanced to create exhilarating racing moments.
It will become synonymous for its steeped bank curve, which is unique amongst F1 circuits. The final bank, angled at 18 degrees, will allow drivers to tuck-in behind an opponent and line-up to overtake in front of the fans on the home straight.
Codemasters also revealed the F1 2020 cover art with four variants alongside the Michael Schumacher Deluxe Edition and Steelbook*.
Current World Champion, Lewis Hamilton and long-time rival, Sebastian Vettel go head to head for the ‘international’ version which includes UK, Germany, and the US markets.
