Recent merge

This page shouldn't have been merged with EA Sports F1. The Codemasters series is not the same series as the 2000-2003 EA F1 series. EA bought Codemasters and their series happened to have the same naming scheme. 2000 EA series followed the same naming scheme as the the Psygnosis series from late 90s but that didn't make it the continuation of the same series. Even the reference ([1]) currently in the article states about F1 2021: "The release will mark the first game in the series published by EA under its EA Sports tag". There should be reliable sources about these being the same series but opposite seems to be true. --Mika1h (talk) 21:24, 9 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

The publisher credits in both PS store and Steam store told me that EA is the new/additional publisher of the F1 games released in the Codemasters' independent era after the acquisition. If I were right, the 2019 and 2020 game are even available in EA Play. Unnamelessness (talk) 04:19, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
Of course EA now owns the rights to publish all the games in the Codemasters series but where are the sources talking about the Codemasters series as continuation of the 2000-2003 series? --Mika1h (talk) 08:50, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
As long as EA owns the rights to publish Codemasters series, Codemasters series are indeed EA series. There is no point to discuss whether Codemasters series is the continuation of the 2000-2003 series or not, especially EA has already involved in Codemasters' games. (I am referring to their 2009-2020 games.) Unnamelessness (talk) 09:12, 10 September 2021 (UTC)Reply

Just business history

After seeing it mentioned in the news, I wanted to know more about this game. I don’t play computer games, but I am familiar with computers and Formula One racing. By following links through several articles, I learned more about video games. Sadly, I still know nothing about the video game called F1. Humphrey Tribble (talk) 11:52, 5 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
