Formula One 2001 is out and as the 99' and 2000 versions Psygnosis is out of the team, studio 33 is was in charge of the development and SCEE is the publisher, many things have change but others are still the same.

The game's "arcade" mode followed a similar line to that of Formula One 2000, although incentives were now offered in the form of upgrades to the player's car.

A new mode—"Challenge" mode—was introduced. In Challenge mode, players were given a lap around Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps in Jenson Button's Benetton. Players who achieved a fast lap time were given a verification code, and were given the opportunity to post their winning times on the Internet to compare their times to other people's.

The gameplay is really smooth, kind of fast (and furious!!) but is always a pleasure. You can turn on many driving aids like auto brake, auto gear, auto drive in pits, and a one interesting feature the auto breaking in the start grid to no start before the green light.

The in-game details are awesome, the cars look great and the circuits are better than ever. From the weather effects to crashing sequences this game is very, very, very good looking.

Unlike any other F1 game in this one the you can actually hear the public, this is a very cool detail because in other games after you pull a nearly impossible manuver the people always seemed boring.
