The first season of F1 24 is here, announced today by EA Sports. Titled 'Modern Day Heroes', it introduces challenges and rewards inspired by two of the current grid's drivers. Each season will have its own theme, featuring on-track challenges inspired by the current 2024 season and the rich history of F1 in the form of new Race Scenarios, Challenge Career, Pro Challenges, and a refreshed Podium Pass.

Available until 28 June, the Charles Leclerc Challenge Career will offer a condensed version of the 2024 season with four weekly episodes containing three races per week. Following on from that in July, there will be a dedicated Aston Martin Event Series celebrating the career of Fernando Alonso, highlighting some of his most iconic moments within his extensive time in Formula One.

If a player competes in these events, they will be able to earn in-game items such as liveries for the spec car used in My Team career and ranked online races, as well as racing suits, podium emotes, and more. Additional items will appear in the new Podium Pass series.

Alongside these features is another new addition called Fanzone. Here, players can connect with like-minded people to show support for their teams and ahead of a Grand Prix weekend, they can vote on which teams and drivers will score the most points in the upcoming real-life race. Along with achieving both individual and community goals, players will earn themselves rewards for engaging.

What you can expect on F1 24 over the next two months.
