The 2010 Formula One game developed by Codemasters has secured the ‘Sports’ category award at the annual Gaming BAFTA awards.
The videogame, available on PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and PC, fought off stiff competition from FIFA 11, Football Manager 2011, Pro Evo Soccer 2011, International Cricket 2010 and Gran Turismo 5 to be crowned sports game of the year.
It marked a comeback for F1 to the gaming platform since Sony Entertainment Inc failed to renew their license with FOM following the release of F1 Championship Edition in 2006.
Codemasters are currently working on the next release for the 2011 season, with further details to be announced before the first race of the season in Australia on March 27th.
