Senna behind in the main image?
What heresy is that

Finally adding in F2. Been wanting that for years now. Hopefully it's incorporated into the career mode and not just something on the side.

Is probably showing the run up to turn one at Suzuka before Senna took Prost out.

Stats wise Prost outperformed Senna at McLaren in every category other than qualifying so maybe it isn't all that surprising. They had the same number of title wins (though Prost scored more points the season that Senna won) but Prost has more wins, more fastest laps, better average points scored etc.

Both drivers were amazing but people forget how good Prost was.

I think I will pick this one up, have skipped the last few but they have definitely made strides with the championships and how you play through it.

Definite pickup and definite double dip from me (PS4 and PC)

Now that is some bad box art!

I skipped 2018 but I think I'll pick it up this year. Though not at launch since it's a busy time for games.

They committed to that box art before the season, didn't they??

I've really enjoyed them ever since the 2016 entry.

And the fact they've consistently improved this gen has been great to see.

"... the Xbox One family of devices including the Xbox One X and Windows PC (DVD and via Steam)"

Does that mean if you buy it on PC/Xbox digitally you get both versions?

This DLC hardly seems worth the extra asking price, just 4 'retro' car (which i bet you cant use in the main game) and only 8 races between Senna and Prost which i bet is its own mode and will be finished in 2 hours
