Formula Racing Manager

A great, reasonably priced Formula racing simulation. In an age of graphics-first and spreadsheet management, it is somewhat refreshing to see a sandbox experience where you can plan more for the medium-long term than spending ages looking through menus or trying to understand over-complicated features. If you want to live the fantasy of being an F1 team manager and see a racing world unfold before you but don't have hours and hours to spend progress-grinding, this is the game for you. 100% recommend especially if/when it goes on offer. Congrats Rand.Exe Studios and keep up the good work, hopefully you find the time and encouragement from the community to keep upgrading the game.

A Quick simulation game that focuses more on the bigge picture than micro management of every single race. Definitely worth your time if you are into Racing. There are some minor UI-Bugs and I would love to able to see some more stats of e.g. old seasons or something like a season progression chart, other than that it's already pretty much perfect.

Good game for the lovers of F1 Management games, you can see some inspiration I think from GPW and others. It's a different take as you can simulate seasons pretty fast and focus on long term rather then race by race as other simulators do. Being a small team, surely a positive review as the base it's pretty solid but with more development and resources (or maybe a sequel) it could really punch above its weight. Being a fan of the genre, kinda surprised I found it almost by chance, as steam never suggested it to me before

[h1][b] 6/10 [/b][/h1] Bir yarış simulasyonundan ziyade formula 1 takımı sahibi simulasyonu, yarış içinde anlık stratejik kararlar verme özelliği yok ancak bunu yapacak kişiyi seçebiliyorsunuz. Hızlıca sezonları bitirebileceğiniz, çok teknik ayrıntıları sevmeyen ama formula bir simulasyonu oynamak isteyenler için güzel bir yapım olmuş.

First of all this is a great game. Read the game description here on steam and u will know if this is something for you. If u dont necessary want to manage your drivers during the races give this game a try and u will pretty likely love it. Minor UI bugs but its only a one man project and released only a day ago. Highly recommend for those who like a fast but not undemanding Motorsport Manager

[h1] Fast paced F1 management done right [/h1] Formula Racing Manager isn't a game you'll spend hours looking through menu's trying to delicately fine tune your team or car, instead it's a fast paced game with a lot of depth in the back end. The most time you'll spend in menu's is the first half of the season where you'll be trying to figure out where to allocate your time with sponsors to try and find the best deal for next season while also figuring out the best part to upgrade. The racing is done in a few seconds and it's all simulated behind the scenes and it does a surprisingly good job at it! [h2] No Licence, No Problem [/h2] Now this is obviously not licensed so by default the game comes with it's own preset teams, staff etc etc BUT the game houses a really in depth editor which is really only missing a handful of features but it does allow you to customize almost every aspect from drivers ratings to their history to staff attributes to the individual aspects of a teams car to the sponsors on the cars etc etc it's really quite in depth and it all works really well. Now if you're someone who wants to play with said licenses then luckily this game comes with workshop support and I for some reason decided I would spend the first 5+ hours researching and adding every single F1 driver, staff member, F2 and F3 drivers (not 100% accurate as it's not all confirmed but I plan on updating it near the start of the season), sponsors, legends etc etc to add them all to the game to make a mostly authentic experience and it absolutely improves the experience 100x, seeing Verstappen and Norris battling it out for a championship one season to then having Williams put up a fight at the start of the next season is quite a fun sight. [h2] Buy out [/h2] One of the coolest things about this game is that at the end of the season it doesn't just progress like the F1 manager games do, instead the AI can go bankrupt and what happens when a team goes bankrupt? They sell out, who to? Any of the suppliers! So you can have Alpine go bankrupt and sell out and now you're racing against Google or HP, or maybe Mercedes decide to no longer sell Engines and so now Google is the top Engine provider. It creates this really unique dynamic every season where something is always changing. Now technically you 'can' go bankrupt yourself and the game will tell you that you have 4 weeks to get back into the positive however this is a void threat, after 4 weeks it will tell you that you need to sell the team but you can just not do it there is no punishment for ignoring it as I think the developer wanted to go for a more 'Roleplay' experience. But if you do decide to go along with it you can sellout to a supplier or completely rebrand the team and colors yourself. Did a driver retire? Well they will reincarnate as themselves again but it gives you the option to change their name and nationality. You can even view each previous season plus the history of the entire F1 world so if you want to get Lewis his 8th world championship and officially beat Schumacher then you can! Want Lance Stroll to win his 9th? Goodluck but it'll be fun look at! [h2] Conclusion [/h2] For the price you can't go wrong, it's a really fun and indepth simulation of the Formula 1 world. If you want my [strike]initial[/strike] updated F1 2026 data base it's here, check the page for instructions as the mod support is broken https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3627033688 https://www.nexusmods.com/mods/1?game_id=8556 https://www.nexusmods.com/formularacingmanager/mods/2?tab=description I made 2 mods for the game, the first adds the 11th team alongside my workshop mod and the other is just a standard fixes mod that is simply designed to fix any bugs (Like the workshop bug where you cannot play any workshop mod because it will throw an error) and make some QOL changes (1 change is adding a weather radar notification before a race giving you a headsup on the weather but removes the ability to leave the race screen forcing you to commit)

Great game for quick simulation.

This is probably my favorite of the casual race management sims. I've played a bunch, and Motorsport Manager is clearly the best, but I'm always looking for a more casual game like this for when I don't feel like spending an hour on a race in MM. Some examples I've tried off the top of my head include Golden Lap (recommend), Flat Spot, OWM2, etc. All of these games have issues, and they are all absurdly easy to take the worst team and just dominate in a year or two. Formula Racing Manager doesn't have bugs or awful issues that I noticed at all, everything makes sense and works, and it took me until 2030 to have the American team dominating, so for me it's by far the best of the casual race management sims. You don't manage the races (hire someone to do that), and there is minor cheese like I was able to sign two top young drivers year one and develop them to being by far the best drivers in the game by 2030 when they probably shouldn't want to sign with the worst teams when they're the best prospects, but that's such a minor complaint it's barely worth mentioning. If you're looking for a more casual racing management sim, I think this is probably the best one right now. I'd also recommend checking out Golden Lap because it's the only other one that's even good at all (you also manage the races a bit in that one, but it's quick), but I think Formula Racing Manager beats it out in every way. I probably won't play this tons because MM exists, but for when I want to scratch that racing itch in a more casual way, this will be the game I play.

This was worth looking at. I hope the developer continues to improve. There are better out there but this still swims in its own lane.

the idea is nice, but the game is too simple ad became boring after few seasons. With few upgrades focused on longevity it could be very good. Fyi I was able to win the championship after 3 season with the worst team with the initial budget of 50 millions. Then i was able to win every season without problem. AI should be better, and it's too easy to make a lot of money after you understand how sponsor works and with the merchandising facility. Mod editor should be capable to modify sponsor money and merchandising I hope devs will add some content to add longevity
