Codemasters is ready to deliver the latest seasonal update for F1 25 this week, and players can download the data for it now. F1 25’s Season 3 will officially kick off on September 17, though the patch for it is already available for download.

Called the v1.12 patch, console gamers will see this appear as F1 25 update 1.012 (complete version 01.012.000), and this brings a host of new content such as cars, teams, drivers, and more. Some of the content will be available starting today, with a staggered rollout on Sept. 17 and Sept. 18 for the other new stuff being introduced.
