F1 2002 is a racing video game published by Electronic Arts and released for Xbox, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 2, GameCube and Game Boy Advance. The game was based on the 2002 season.

Strangely, Hockenheimring and Nürburgring both still use their original layouts, and BMW Williams F1 Team use Compaq logos before being bought by HP. This was rectified in the Microsoft Windows and Game Boy Advance versions.

The GameCube version is a port of F1 2001, with only minor differences.[4]

Reception

[edit]

GameSpot named F1 2002 a runner-up for its June 2002 "PC Game of the Month" award.[5] It was also a runner-up for GameSpot's annual "Best Driving Game on PC" and "Best Driving Game on GameCube" awards, losing to Rally Trophy and NASCAR: Dirt to Daytona, respectively.[6]
