Released as the F1 season builds to its climax, F1 2012 is just what F1 fans need to keep them going during the winter break. The game lets you play the full 2012 season, with every track, car and driver present and correct (including the United States...

This week I decided to try something a little out of my comfort zone when it comes to gaming, F1 2012. Now I'm already a big fan of racing games, but I never got into the whole F1 thing, I'm not a sports fan and I generally like variety in my racing...
