*The biggest change from F1 24 to F1 25 is the 8K resolution mode. Whereas F1 24's gameplay included all RT, but ran at 8K/30fps, F1 25 only includes DDGI, but runs at 60fps whilst keeping 24's version for cutscenes/replays etc. Otherwise, the rest of the F1 24 info remains true - 'Base PS5's quality mode has no RT during gameplay, whereas Pro's quality mode has 3/4 RT which dramatically improves realism. Pro even brings back RT shadows for cutscenes (which are now at 40fps, instead of 30fps) and replays. Base PS5's quality mode resolution is 1800p-4K DRS, yet Pro's PSSR very nearly matches its sharpness despite being at 1080p-1440p DRS. Base PS5 has no 8K mode and its 120 Hz performance mode is also usually at 1080p compared to Pro's 1440p.'
