Skip it if you…

Our take on F1® Manager 2024
The pressure point is the move from race strategy to ongoing team management: players must also handle staff and driver needs, talent recruitment, development, facilities, and sponsor negotiations. Those who want to focus only on directing races may hit that broader workload before reaching later seasons.
What is F1® Manager 2024?
Take charge of one of 10 official Formula 1 teams or create a new constructor, customizing its origin, livery, logo, and racing suits.
Recruit drivers and staff, negotiate sponsor placements, and manage team relationships through a Mentality System that tracks personalities and needs. During races, set strategy and watch drivers carry out commands, while mechanical failures can affect cars pushed hard over successive laps. Outside race day, develop cars and facilities, manage talent from F2 and F3, and work across multiple seasons. The game includes the 2024 Sprint format and roster, an option to simulate the full race weekend, tutorials, and Race Replay scenarios. A bird’s-eye Helicam view offers another perspective for race-day planning.
