The final major update of F1 2021 has arrived at long last.
The Jeddah Corniche Circuit is now in the game. But what else has arrived with the update?
Let's take a look!
F1 2021 Update 1.13 Patch Notes
Of course the addition of the Jeddah circuit is the headline here, but what else is landing with Update 1.13?

What about F2?
We were expecting the Formula 2 update to be wrapped up with Update 1.13. The Free Content Updates trailer that hit in September with Portimao indicated that the F2 2021 season would be arriving with Jeddah in November, but the patch notes make no mention of it. Neither does the official site.
With the F2 season not wrapping up until 12 December, perhaps we will have to wait to go racing in the new Formula 2 cars...
