How It Works

From boardroom to pit wall, every call is simulated

Build the team, engineer the car, prep each circuit, and command race weekends across an authentic FIA calendar. This is the full management loop.

Season Architecture

Macro decisions fuel the entire campaign

Your objectives, contracts, aero tokens, and cost-cap calls stretch across the full 2026 calendar.

Pre-season build

  • Lock partners, funding envelopes, and sporting objectives.
  • Draft driver + staff contracts with clauses that matter mid-season.
  • Plan the car roadmap: aero, chassis, and PU milestones.

In-season pivots

  • Shift CFD and wind tunnel hours based on regulation limits.
  • Trigger upgrade packages when the constructors’ fight tightens.
  • Escalate driver changes once morale or performance collapse.

Gameplay Loop

Five steps every sporting director repeats

1. Build the organization

Appoint leadership, structure departments, and set the culture that drives decisions.

2. Develop the car

Allocate CFD/tunnel hours, manage correlation risk, and schedule upgrades against cost caps.

3. Prepare for circuits

Study each venue’s downforce profile, tyre punishment, and weather corridors before travel.

4. Command race weekends

Author run plans, react to safety cars, and balance both drivers’ strategies in real time.

5. Review & escalate

Audit every call, update objectives, and brief the board before the next round.

Season Flow

Real calendar pressure, round after round

Here’s a slice of the 2026 flow pulled directly from the race_weekends table.

Round 1

Australian Grand Prix

Australia • Mar 06 – Mar 08

Track position matters, but degradation can still open offset strategies.

Round 2

Chinese Grand Prix

China • Mar 13 – Mar 15

Front-left wear and long-radius corners reward balanced tyre management.

Round 3

Japanese Grand Prix

Japan • Mar 27 – Mar 29

Qualifying matters; high-speed rhythm punishes dirty air and overdriving.

Round 4

Bahrain Grand Prix

Bahrain • Apr 10 – Apr 12

Rear tyre preservation and traction out of slow corners are key to race pace.

Round 5

Saudi Arabian Grand Prix

Saudi Arabia • Apr 17 – Apr 19

Low degradation but high confidence circuit; safety car timing can swing strategy.

Round 6

Miami Grand Prix

United States • May 01 – May 03

Track evolution and heat can create undercut potential in medium-length stints.

Next race focus

Australian Grand Prix

Albert Park Grand Prix Circuit • Australia

Lap 5.3 km • 58 laps
