After featuring Lando Norris, Charles Leclerc and George Russell on the cover of the F1 22 Standard Edition, as well as Fernando Alonso, Lewis Hamilton, Max Verstappen and Sebastian Vettel on the Champions Edition cover, the personnel count for the F1 23 artwork has been reduced, but there are still going to be different covers for the two editions.
For the Standard Edition, familiar faces return to the artwork: Seven-time World Champion and Mercedes driver Hamilton will adorn the cover alongside Ferrari ace Leclerc and McLaren pilot Norris.
A presentation video featuring racing driver and presenter Naomi Schiff as the host suggests that the next chapter of Braking Point - which might return under a different name - is imminent in F1 23.
