Racing games have always been popular for online play, and nothing beats the high octane rush that F1 is always able to deliver. F1 fans are spoiled for choice when it comes to online play. Not only are all the official F1 video games playable online, but there's also masses of free racing games that can be enjoyed without spending a penny. Those feeling lucky may fancy trying their hand even at F1 themed online slots such as those offered by Euro Palace Online Casino. There's many Formula One facts that will blow your mind, but the massive popularity of all these game genres really shouldn't be one!

In this article we'll take a look through the most popular F1 themed games out there in each category. By no means is this an exhaustive examination - you could fill a book there's so many choices - but we'll focus on the best and most popular F1 games available for online play.

Official F1 Racing Games

Motorsport has always been one of the most popular gaming genres. In the case of F1 the sport lends itself superbly to social play, and is great for fans given that the tracks are identical to those used in the real world. F1 racing games can actually become highly technical and strategic. Much like an actual race the player needs to be able to adjust their driving style according to circumstances, making decisions on tyres, timing pit stops and most vital of all driving with an appropriate attitude.

The latest official F1 game is widely regarded as one of the greatest F1 games ever released. It makes superb use of the graphics power held by the latest gaming rigs and consoles to provide an awesome all round simulation. While great fun in single player, it's online where this game truly comes into it's own as players from around the world race for the checkered flag. It's just like the real thing!

Free Play F1 Online Games

While nowhere close to the beauty of the official titles, there's surprisingly high quality free F1 games available online. Quite a few of these - for example F1 Track 3D and Formula Racer score impressively with F1 aficionados and best of all - they're free! Often these games have been the pet projects of F1 fans who are involved in professional game programming and design, so the quality can be genuinely high end. It's also possible to find much older versions of the official game for free, and for casual online gaming they more than do the job.

F1 Slots Games

F1 is a great theme for slots as of course it's all about racing towards the finishing line - or in this case the jackpot. The aforementioned Euro Palace Online Casino has plenty of racing themed games, complete with amazingly immersive graphics and sound effects. All the classic F1 symbols are incorporated into the game, with pit stops serving up bonuses and speedometers accruing free spins.

Notable mentions should go to Microgaming's 'Good To Go', which while not officially endorsed by F1 is so close to the real thing that frankly it might as well be. RealTime Gaming have produced their 'Green Light' which is another all-action affair, while for there's also plenty more to choose between too.

So overall we can see that F1 is probably one of the best catered sports out there for online gaming. It doesn't matter if you're playing the latest cutting edge simulation, an old school top down racer or rolling a few wheels on the slots - action and excitement are always guaranteed.
