Watch Haas Drivers Bearman and Ocon Go Head-to-Head at Circuit of the Americas for the Latest Pro Challenge HERE
Redwood City, Calif. – October 15, 2025 – Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ: EA) is inviting fans to the grid for a weekend of celebration and competition in EA SPORTS™ F1® 25, the official game of the FIA Formula One World Championship™. From October 16 to 20, players can race for free* on PlayStation®5, Xbox Series X|S, and Steam®, with full access to the 2025 FIA Formula One World Championship™, Braking Point, and My Team 2.0. As the real-world grid arrives in Austin for the United States Grand Prix™, F1® 25 is celebrating Haas’ home race with an all-new Pro Challenge, giving players the chance to take on the team’s newest star, Ollie Bearman.
For this special event, the rookie and his teammate Esteban Ocon went wheel-to-wheel around the Circuit of the Americas to see whose fastest lap would make it into the game, with Ollie emerging victorious. Starting October 15, players can jump into F1® World to take on his lap time in the Haas Pro Challenge for a chance to unlock the team’s 2025 United States Grand Prix™ livery**, arriving in-game alongside its first real-world appearance. “Esteban gave it a good go, but I wasn’t going to let him have the fastest lap that easily,” joked Ollie Bearman. “Now it’s everyone else’s turn — let’s see who’s fast enough to try and beat my time.”
Those racing in-game throughout the weekend can hit the ground running with Double Podium Pass XP, and new players can purchase the game at 30% off the standard retail price† until October 20 from Xbox, Steam, and PlayStation (PlayStation discount available on Standard Edition only), with all in-game progress and content saved from the trial.
