Hey there,

Thank you for your report. Could you tell me where did you buy your game, please?

    Hey there,

    It seems that the game could have been installed in the wrong language. Could you uninstall it, check the language when downloading, and ensure it is English, please?

    Thanks.

    Once you uninstall it and press to download again, there should be an option that says "LANGUAGE PREFERENCES" you can change it there. It seems that simplified Chinese is the option marked as default and that's why everyone is getting the game in Chinese.

    @EA_Groguet so it defaults to Chinese on install, this seems to have been an oversight/bug since every other game i have through ea play defaults to English as one would expect when the app is set to English.

    Hey everyone,

    For all of you that are having this issue. It seems that the game was installed on Chinese as that was the Default language. To fix this situation, please follow the next steps:

    • Uninstall the game
    • Click "Download"
    • Select English on the Language Preferences option

    Enjoy the racing!

    @EA_Groguet hey I'm new to the F1 games but right now I've got the game in English and its been working fine with the dialog in cutscenes and menus, but I've gotten onto the track and the announcer / radio comms are Chinese speakers.

    Dear Groguet,

    I have the same issue. I checked the Language Preferences and noticed that it was on chinese by default, so I SWITCHED TO ENGLISH! Downloaded the game this way and when I fired up the game, it started on chinese language again! Is there a solution to this?

    Thank you for your help in advance!

    Kind Regards,

    László Vas

    There's a "change" button under Language Settings. I went too quick the first time, too.

    Even after uninstalling and reinstalling in the correct language the commentary is Chinese, however, go to Audio Settings and select F1 to reset to defaults and voila its fixed 😎
