Fans of EA Sports' F1 games will have driven around the Bahrain track on multiple occasions over the years, with it being the season-opening race for the fourth consecutive season.

While the next game in the series, F1 24, has recently been given an official release date, the previous edition - which gave fans the chance to drive around the stunning Las Vegas street circuit for the first time - is still a very popular game.

Now, PlayStation have offered their premium members the chance to trial the game for free throughout the month of March.

Perfectly in time for the start of the new season, F1 fans will be able to drive around in Max Verstappen's extremely dominant RB19 car, and try to set stunning lap records around picturesque tracks such as the Belgian GP.

Or, start a 'My Team Career Mode', and find out what it's like to be owner, team principal and driver at your very own F1 team, hiring drivers past and present from seven-time world champion Lewis Hamilton to the late, great Ayrton Senna.

That, of course, is if you have any time whatsoever to do anything else other than consume F1, with three races in March kicking off what is set to be a brilliant season, and heaps of news off the track keeping fans engaged.
