❤ Depth and Complexity of Team Management

You take full control of every aspect of running a racing team, from managing finances and negotiating contracts to designing and developing your cars. The game's intricate, interconnected systems reward strategic decision-making and resource allocation. Carefully balancing factors like staff skills, driver demands, and team fit allows you to build a successful racing dynasty over multiple seasons.

❤ Engaging Contract Negotiations

One standout feature is the dynamic "silly season" of contract negotiations. You must actively compete with rival teams to secure the best drivers, engineers, and sponsors, weighing factors like individual skills, demands, and fit with your overall strategy. Successfully navigating these complex negotiations and making tough tradeoffs is crucial to assembling your dream team.

❤ Customizable Car Design and Development

You have a high degree of control over your chassis design, allowing you to fine-tune parameters like length, ride height, and aerodynamic balance to create a car tailored to your drivers' preferences and track demands. Upgrading and refining the car through research and production is a continual process, forcing you to carefully prioritize development paths and balance your resources.

❤ Progression and Longevity

The game's dynamic nature, with evolving regulations, driver movements, and shifts in supplier performance, ensures that no two playthroughs are alike. Whether you take a struggling team to the top or maintain the dominance of an established powerhouse, you can sink hundreds of hours into a single save as you navigate the challenges of sustained success and plan for the future.

❤ Flexibility and Player Agency

Rather than micromanaging race-day operations, the game empowers your decision-making, allowing you to focus on the core management aspects that truly shape your team's destiny. The balance between automation and player control is widely praised, giving experienced managers the freedom to optimize performance while providing a clear path for newcomers to learn the ropes.
