F1 24 Cover Revealed – Verstappen, Hamilton & Leclerc, & More

Max Verstappen is the F1 24 Champion’s Edition Cover Star, while Lewis Hamilton, Charles Leclerc, and Lando Norris grace the cover of the standard edition. Since F1 2015, at least one or several of these drivers made an appearance on the cover. Furthermore, Verstappen graces the Champion’s Edition cover for the third straight installment.

For newcomers to F1, Verstappen is Formula One’s best driver right now. With three straight championships under his belt (and a fourth likely on the way), Verstappen has solidified himself as a legendary driver. Despite an unfortunate retirement from the Australian Grand Prix, Verstappen has currently placed 1st in all other races this year. The Champion needs no further reason to grace the Champion’s Edition cover once again.

Hamilton, Leclerc, and Norris all reprise their roles cover stars from the previous entry, F1 23. Furthermore, Hamilton has graced almost every F1 video game cover in the last decade, with the exception of F1 22, and F1 2014. The seven time Champion hasn’t been able to win it all since 2020, but has ranked in the top three final rankings since. Even if his final year with Mercedes doesn’t end on a positive note, he’ll look upwards towards his new home in Ferrari in 2025.

Chares Leclerc graces his fourth consecutive EA Sports F1 cover in F1 24. The former Formula 2 Champion has certainly improved throughout his time as a driver for Ferrari. However, he has yet to win it all for a popular racing team with a decorated history. He’s started off the 2024 season strong, currently ranking third place. So far, he ranked 4th place or better in all races this season.
