Published by 31 Oct, 2022 0 likes

Alongside F1® 22's recent 1. 15 patch, all ten F1® teams have had significant face-lifts to bring them closer to their real-life counterparts.

This is known as the Sport Liveries Update and is available now for all F1® 22 players. Throughout the season, F1® teams make refinements to their team colours, branding, attire, and more.

However, the most important changes are those made to the cars themselves.

As teams across the grid look to eke out those fractions of a second over their rivals, F1® car designs evolve throughout the season.

What might look like small aesthetic changes to an untrained eye can be the result of thousands of hours of research, potentially being the difference between a point's finish and a spot on the podium.

With the Sport Liveries update released to F1® 22, changes to vehicle geometry, bodywork, sponsors, and colours have been made, as well as updates to team attires, hospitality spaces, and garage looks throughout the F1® grid.

This will bring them closer to their real-life counterparts for enhanced visual realism.

Here’s a breakdown of some of the changes made to each of the teams in the most detailed Sport Liveries Update we’ve made to-date:Oracle Red Bull RacingSidepod, top canopy, shark fin, side vents, and front floor strakes have been changed.
