Podium Pass Series 2 is LIVE!
Earn That XP
How do you rack up the rewards? Play F1® 2021! Whichever game modes you play, you’ll increase your XP and rocket through the tiers. Head to our Podium Pass challenges and you’ll earn even more XP.
You’ve got eight weeks to complete Podium Pass Series 2, so you have plenty of time to put your foot down. Don’t forget your XP and tier progress will be reset at the beginning of each Series!
What’s in Series 2? Here are some of our favourites:
Dazzle those around you with the Neon Rainbow livery, available in the VIP tier. We’ve paired this with the ‘Hydro Dipped’ suit and gloves, both of which you can find in the VIP tier, and the free tier ‘Overflow’ helmet.
Streamline’ your way through the field with the livery, suit (both available in the VIP tier), gloves (found in the Item Shop), alongside the ‘Fracture’ helmet, which you can also check out in the Item Shop.
Show them how ruthless you are on track with VIP livery ‘Nightshade’. Here, we’ve paired it with the ‘Indivar’ gloves and suit, both available in the free tier, and the ‘Masquerade’ helmet, which will be in the Item Shop.
Unlock the ‘Vintage’ livery in the free tier. We’ve gone back in time and paired this with the ‘History’ gloves and suit, also ready for you to uncover. The final piece here is the VIP helmet ‘Backstrap’.
Alongside liveries, suits, helmets, and gloves, you can unlock victory radio calls, so you can take the chequered flag in style. Some of this Series’ radio calls will be instantly recognisable, especially the “Woohoo yes yes yes guys, yes!” and “To whom it may concern...”, which are available for you to unlock in the VIP tier.
Podium Pass Series 2 comes to an end on November 10, so plenty of time to rack up the race wins and level up your look.
Make sure you keep it on our social channels on Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and Facebook for the latest F1® 2021 news.
