There’s a new update now available for F1 2020, and it brings along an interesting additional offering. It’s a DLC pack that goes by the name of “Keep Fighting Foundation DLC”, and it’s all in aid of charity.

 

The pack comes in at $4.99 (£3.99/€4.99), and adds the usual set of customization items. There’s a new car livery, a podium celebration, race suit including helmet and gloves, and a badge. All celebrate the Keep Fighting Foundation, and the proceeds from all sales will go to the charity.

 

If you’re not familiar with the Keep Fighting Foundation, it’s a charity set up in Germany to continue the philanthropic work of Michael Schumacher. Seven-time world champion Schumacher’s work for charity is well known, with the driver appointed a UNESCO ambassador in 2002. He’s also donated tens of millions of dollars to charity — often to otherwise low profile causes around the world.

 

It’s something he’s not been able to actively participate in since a near-fatal skiing accident in 2013. Schumacher sustained serious head injuries and has been out of the public eye ever since; even his current health is unknown outside of his family and medical team, though his long-time friend and colleague Jean Todt, president of the FIA, says he watches the F1 races on television.

Will definitely buy this! I do hope one day we get an update on his health. Watching him and Alonso battle as a kid was always awesome to watch
