F1 2021 is the official video game of the 2021 Formula One and Formula 2 Championships developed by Codemasters and published by EA Sports. It is the fourteenth title in the F1 series by Codemasters and the first in the series published by Electronic Arts under its EA Sports division since F1 Career Challenge in 2003. The game was released on July 16, 2021, for Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S. (Wikipedia)

Engine: EGO. We test using the Ultra High preset, with all ray tracing settings turned off, DX12 API.

F1 2021, on the other hand, delivers the single most impressive set of benchmark results for the RX 6600 XT. At 1080p it is absolutely miles ahead of the RTX 3060 here, delivering 31% better performance, while it's also bang on level with the RTX 3060 Ti, which isn't something we have seen too much in our testing so far.

Stepping up to 1440p, the 6600 XT is still 25% faster than the RTX 3060, a slightly small gap between those two cards, but still a very clear victory for AMD. Against the RTX 3060 Ti however, the 6600 XT is now 6% slower – but at the end of the day we're still looking at over 120FPS on average, so we can't really complain.
