Codemasters has announced the official release date for F1 2012 on Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and PC.

The game will be available September 18 in the U.S. and September 21 in Europe. It contains several new features including a Young Driver Test, which will act as the game’s tutorial. “The aim for the 2012 game is to make more of a complete Formula One experience,” creative director Stephen Hood said.

“[The Young Driver Test] gives those up and coming drivers track time to showcase their talents and it’s wonderful that we are able to copy the elements that happen on those real Young Driver Test sessions in the game.”
