I think its a very good improvement over 2020. can't speak to online because I don't play it, but the single player experience feels fully fleshed out. the story mode is fine, i guess, but the combination of the full career mode with the full my team mode makes it a game that lets you live out your f1 fantasies pretty damn well. I wish it were more easily moddable to extend the universe within the game, and it could certainly use a livery editor. But overall, the racing is very good and when things go wrong, it almost always makes sense why they did. I also wish the wheel felt better, but all in all, I think its a game that can give players from a wide range of skill levels (via its highly configurable difficulty and assists) an enjoyable challenge that makes you feel like a subject of a drive to survive episode
