First up, is reigning champions, Mercedes-AMG Petronas revealing its new W12 car featuring a familiar livery. The 8-time world champions have one of the fastest cars on the grid. The low downforce of their cars allows them to achieve a top speed of about 330KPH, and of course, they have a powerful Mercedes engine that contributes to this pace. Mercedes' black livery makes it a piece of beautiful machinery to look at and coupled with it being the 2nd fastest car on the grid, this could be the car for you to choose in the career mode.

Jumping into number 2 is the classy Mclaren. McLaren has produced an upgraded version of the car, the McLaren MCL35M for the 2021 championship as the team returned to using Mercedes engines. The car is arguably the fastest car on the straights, hitting about 332KPH. The MCL35 is the first McLaren car to be wrapped in vinyl rather than painted, featuring a matte finish and greater use of black to lower the overall weight of the car and reduce the time required to prepare bodywork. This produces a unique look and if you like the orange colour, this could be the car for you to experience F1 2021 with.
3. Red Bull

Aggressive, just like its driver Max, Red Bull is one of the toughest cars to beat this season. Red Bull Racing is the fastest car on the grid. With the help of the Honda engine, the car is hitting new heights this season. When measured, the top speed of the Red Bull car records around 328KPH, which is some way off compared to the McLaren and Mercedes cars, but the overall power and speed out of corners makes it the ultimate best car on the grid. In the career mode, choosing Red Bull to race in automatically means you must produce podiums in almost every race, so if you are up for a challenge, this could be the car for you.

When your billionaire father is part owner of this F1 team, it guarantees you a good car and a seat in F1, well, that’s if your name is Lance Stroll. The AMR21 car has developed since last year's RP20. The team has adopted the British racing green colour and kept some pink elements. Also, one of the quickest cars in the game, as it records a top speed of 330KPH.
This is a very solid midfield car, and if you play the career mode and are looking for a good car with not so many expectations. Ahead of the 2022 car hitting the track, the livery of the car is 2021 Aston Martin Racing Green livery to the 2022 design, which according to the designers would give us an idea of the team's striking identity for the next era of Formula One.
5. Ferrari

Rounding up our list is the Ferrari SF21. They designed the SF21 as an evolution of its predecessor, the SF1000. Ferraris's straight-line speed is 326KPH, quick on the straights and has a beautiful red colour as its livery. The SF21 also features a revised nose, and there have also been changes made to the car's transmission. This year's Ferrari SF21 has improved on the 2020 Ferrari with better aero and a much better power unit.
There is always something so special about driving the Scarlet Red machines, as it feels wrong whenever they aren't winning in Formula One.
