A New Era Of Formula One Arrives
The 2026 Season Pack marks one of the biggest shake-ups the F1 franchise has seen in years, mirroring the sweeping real-world changes arriving in Formula One itself.
Players can expect lighter, smaller and more responsive cars thanks to the sport’s incoming regulation overhaul, alongside active aerodynamics and new handling systems designed to create closer racing and more tactical overtaking opportunities.
Codemasters is also introducing an all-new Overtake Mode, designed to give drivers extra strategic tools during races while making wheel-to-wheel action even more intense.
According to the developers, this expansion represents the biggest evolution of the series in over a decade.
“The F1® 25: 2026 Season Pack marks the beginning of a bold new era for Formula 1,” said Lee Mather, Senior Creative Director at Codemasters. “With sweeping regulation changes and new teams and rivalries redefining the grid, players can experience the most significant evolution of the sport in over a decade. We are thrilled to bring these changes to players, including the incredible opportunity to race virtually on the MADRING circuit before the race, and look forward to sharing more soon.”
MADRING Makes Its Debut
One of the headline additions is MADRING – the first brand-new Formula One circuit added to the series since 2023.
Set around Madrid, the hybrid street and purpose-built layout combines high-speed straights with technical corners, giving players the chance to tackle the circuit before the real-world Spanish Grand Prix takes place in September 2026. For F1 fans, it’s likely to become one of the most anticipated tracks in the entire game.
Audi And Cadillac Join The Grid
As you would expect, there is also the arrival of two brand-new teams.
The 2026 expansion officially expands the Formula One grid to eleven teams, with both Audi and Cadillac joining the championship. That means My Team mode now allows players to create a twelfth custom squad alongside the new manufacturers.
Cadillac’s line-up includes fan favourites Sergio Perez and Valtteri Bottas, while Audi enters the championship with Gabriel Bortoleto and Nico Hülkenberg.
Seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton also praised the expansion and its authenticity.
“I’m so pleased to be able to partner with EA SPORTS because games are such an incredible way for fans to experience our sport,” said Hamilton. “This year, we’ve entered a new era in Formula 1, with new regulations which have changed so much about the sport. The EA SPORTS team has done a great job bringing these changes to life in the F1® 25: 2026 Season Pack, from the cars and power units to the new tracks like MADRING. I can’t wait for fans out there to get behind the wheel and experience this new season for themselves.”
New Edition Also Announced
Alongside the DLC expansion, EA has confirmed a new F1 25: 2026 Season Edition bundle. This combines the base game with the full 2026 Season Pack, giving newcomers the complete Formula One package in one purchase.
