Do you like driving games? Are you an F1 fan? Do you fancy yourself as the next Jenson Button or Lewis Hamilton? If so (and you own an iPhone or an iPod Touch) then you will want to check out the official 2009 Formula 1 game from The Codemasters. This game, which was previously only available for the Nintendo Wii and the PlayStation Portable, brings the 17 circuits used in this years world championship to your iPhone.
The £3.99 game is available on the App Store and although it doesn’t feature a championship mode (where you can compete in every race and collect points), it does feature two unique modes. The first is the Time Trials mode. Here you need to produce one stunning flying lap and achieve the best time possible. The other mode is about endurance and is designed to test your consistency, speed and skill over six, nine or 12 laps.
All this action takes place on the 17 circuits featured in the 2009 season including classics like Monaco, Spa, Silverstone and Monza as well as brand new tracks such as the Yas Marina and the dramatic Singapore night race.
The game also features virtual K.E.R.S (Kinetic Energy Recovery Systems) to help you set that fastest lap and in-game driving aids like showing the racing line, corner indicators, braking assistant and so on. All of these can be switched on and off according to your ability.
