Codemasters Acquires Official Formula 1 License
British publisher and developer Codemasters has announced that the company has secured the exclusive video game rights to Formula 1 racing, with its first title, based on the 2009 season, due for release next year on all console and PC formats.
The announcement has come as a surprise, after widely reported rumors that Electronic Arts had secured the license, or at least that of British driver Lewis Hamilton, from its previous holder, Sony. However, Codemasters has confirmed that it has won the worldwide right to feature all Grand Prix circuits, Formula 1 teams, cars and driver likenesses. ____________ Source: Gamasutra |

The only good thing about this is other systems will have Formula 1 games. Codemasters games that I have played sucked so I'm not expecting much.

Codemasters know how to make games, they are very good at making racing games. They are better at racing games than perhaps anyone else, or at a minimum among the best.
The main good thing though, at least for me, is that finaly I will play a Formual 1 game. By releasing F1 games only on the PS3, it was the only reason to buy one. Good thing I never had to make the jump.
