Max Verstappen is rated higher than ever before in the new edition of the official Formula 1 game.
The reigning world champion has a performance score of 96 out of a possible 100 in F1 24, which is four points higher than any of his 19 competitors. Fernando Alonso is rated as the second-best driver on 92, with no other driver scored in the nineties.
Verstappen became an ambassador for F1 24 publish EA Sports at the beginning of last year. In-season updates have previously lifted his score as high as 96 but this is the first time he has been scored this high at the launch of a new game.
It is the third year in a row Verstappen has been the sole highest-rated driver at the launch of the latest edition of the official F1 game. He and Lewis Hamilton had equal-highest scores of 95 and 94 respectively for the launch editions of F1 2021 and F1 22, but the seven-times world champion now has a score of 89.
All drivers have scores of at least 80 except Logan Sargeant, whose score is 70. This is one point lower than last year, when he made his debut, and the lowest since Zhou Guanyu had the same score in F1 22.
