F1 Race Stars is a certainly a nice game, with lots of visual charm. You play as adorable caricatures of real-life drivers – the likenesses are strong, and they look as if they’ve been carved from colourful vinyl. The presentation is impossibly cute too. Drivers nod and wink to each other on the starting grid, and summon their misplaced helmets in a variety of mischievous ways before the race begins. Similarly, levels are lovely to look at, but they're not nearly as much fun to race through. Like the F1 season, tracks are set across the globe, from Japan to Italy, Brazil to the USA. Each one is a charming condensation of that country’s most iconic landmarks and symbols. In Japan, you’ll weave in and out of warring Sumo wrestlers, dodge bowing geishas serving noodles, and jockey for position on top of Shinkansen. Meanwhile, in Abu Dhabi, you’ll scale gigantic hotels which open up like rollercoasters, navigate building sites, before ending up in the desert. It’s all rendered in a quaint and quirky style, like everything has been constructed using pastels and plastic.
