"In F1 Manager 2022, you take on the role of Team Principle. The Team Principal is really at the heart of a Formula One constructer team," explained Game Director, Andy Fletcher.

Legendary former Formula One Team Principal Ross Brawn added: "I think for the fans, playing this game is going to be a fascinating insight into a different side of Formula One.

"We all think of the drivers and I think even the engineers have a reasonable profile.

"But I think through the game you’re going to understand all the work that needs to be done to build the relationship between the drivers, the engineers, the factories, so that everyone knows what they're supposed to be doing.

"To create the foundations and build the substance for a team to be successful."

Fans have reacted positively to the new game play trailer, although some have questioned why the release date for the game is midway through the ongoing Formula One season.
