F1 academy
it would be nice to see the f1 academy in the game in the future, it would also bring more girls closer to this game.

@mixmax83 While I agree it would be positive to get more women involved in motorsports and in gaming, how do you envision it being implemented? As a feeder series to career mode? Because most people already just skip to F1 anyway, or just as an extension of Grand Prix Mode? Or something else?
@ScarDuck14 I agree if either was being added this year they would have at least made a brief mention of it in the teaser trailer we saw earlier this month. Also, I agree they would go for F1 academy first as it reaches out to a new audience. Adding F3 would be unnecessary because while I know F2 has a couple of hardcore fans who like to lurk around these boards, most people ignore F2 entirely.
@TheRagebeardFound it…. Ironic considering what some think of me. 🤷🏻♂️🙄

@ScarDuck14 There's some interesting opinions expressed in that thread you dug up there. I'm merely going to reiterate what I said earlier. If I were running EA I would have significantly more interest in F1 Academy as it potentially gives you access to a new untapped audience to build up, compared to F3 which is just a watered-down version of F2 which is already a niche section of your core audience.
@TheRagebeard it’s probably the best and most legit way to add increased female representation which despite real F1 grid being all male. This is still a game at the end of the day.
If my daughter played F1 I know given a choice between male or female teammate she’d want to have an all girl team. Although for 14 she’s not a girls girl. She loves 1980-2000s heavy metal and her favourite colours are black and blacker. 😂🤘🏻 and very much a tomboy, which her mum hates:.. But Mainly cause she’s her father’s daughter 😍.
She doesn’t like racing games. Her goto is Fortnite and RDR2
