The Ferrari driver and the McLaren driver are managing just fine and have turned to online gaming to sharpen their skills. Aside from the F1 2019 game, they also play a number of simulation racing games and even multiplayer games like Rocket League.
On the subject of Rocket League, for the uninitiated, this game pits two teams of three cars each. Their objective is to guide a giant ball to their opponent’s goal or defend their goal from opponents.
Each game lasts around five minutes and the scores are tallied. However, play can continue after the timer runs out, as long as the ball does not touch the ground.

Suffice to say, it is quite fun to team up with friends or strangers, or even play against them. Given that only three players are there per side, it opens up several avenues for plenty of chaos and fun between six players.
Coming back to Formula One, the 2020 F1 season is set to tentatively commence from July onwards. The Red Bull Ring in Austria will play host to the season opener, with a possibility of a double-header.
