Looking forward to starting a MyTeam career in codemasters' new Formula One racing game? Well, here are the F1 22 game driver ratings to help you pick

F1 22 Game Driver Ratings: Multiple drivers can be seen in an image from the game.

F1 22 is finally here and a new era of Codemasters’ Formula One racing game series is starting. If you’re looking forward to starting a new MyTeam career mode save, you might want to take a look at the updated F1 22 game driver ratings. It’s important to have the right teammate in your team’s second car, especially if you want to win a Constructor’s Championship.

In a similar fashion to F1 2021, each driver in F1 22 has an overall rating and three secondary stats that you need to keep an eye on. When you look at the driver market in-game, you’ll find that everyone has four different stats. EXP stands for experience and this is, generally speaking, how much experience with Formula One (or F2) racing the driver has. RAC stands for racecraft – a stat that’s important in dictating how good a driver is at seizing overtaking opportunities, managing tyres, and other important aspects of solid racing.

The next thing you need to look out for when checking out F1 22 game driver ratings is PAC – which stands for pace. This is, of course, an important statistic as it dictates how competitive your driver’s lap times are. Finally, there’s AWE, which stands for awareness. RTG then combines those ratings. This gives you a measure of how well your driver can avoid collisions and accidents with other drivers – something that’s useful to have if you want to make sure both cars are finishing races.
