About
The Golden Era of open-wheel racing is about to begin. Do you have what it takes to lead an iconic team through one of the most exciting decades of motorsport history?
As the head of a team, you'll make pivotal decisions that shape the destiny of your drivers and the performance of your cars. Allocate your budget wisely across drivers, support staff, car development, and sponsorships to gain an edge over the competition. Manage big personalities to get the most out of every member of your team.
But don’t forget – racing in this era is unpredictable and intense. Golden Lap is no ordinary motorsport management game.
Safety measures are improving, but accidents can happen. Car technology is advancing in leaps and bounds. You aren’t racing spreadsheets, and there’s no such thing as a guaranteed win – which makes victory all the sweeter.
Every season is an opportunity to etch your name in racing history. Whether you're turning a back-marker team into a championship contender or taking on the pressure of maintaining a dynasty, your decisions between races and championships will be the key to your legacy.
Hire the right crew, develop your cars, make the right calls on race day, and meet your sponsors’ goals. All while making sure not to go broke!
Build a winning team with drivers, a head engineer and a crew chief. Every hire comes with rich personality traits that affect everything from finances to car performance and skill behind the wheel.
A driver with rich parents may look like they’ve saved your team by helping out with money - until they turn out to be a party animal and cost you the championship by showing up tired on race day. Your head engineer might bring down the rest of your team with their grumpy attitude, but if they’re a magician with a wrench it might be worth it? Only you can judge what your team needs.
Golden Lap is a minimalist take on the racing strategy genre, with an intuitive UI that displays only essential information and makes it clear what each decision means – though it won’t make the decisions themselves any easier!
The amount of options and information involved in motorsport can be overwhelming for someone not familiar with it. Golden Lap cuts out the micromanagement and lets you focus on the big picture, with depth where it matters.
Shape your own racing universe from the ground up by customizing teams, drivers, and fine-tuning the crew's skills and traits. Add new sponsors, craft intricate car designs, and unlock endless possibilities!
Whether you’re a seasoned modder or a newcomer, the mods feature will empower you to create a unique and thrilling experience. Join a vibrant community of creators and share your masterpieces, or challenge others with your custom-built championships. The road to glory is yours to pave!

Without hesitation: a thumbs-up Bringing a stable to victory is so rewarding! Simple to understand, but difficult to perfect.
Saw a couple of youtubers post videos of the game, I was interested. Bought the game and so far so good, im currently on my second season and starting to get wins with Night. looking to win both championships next season.
It's so boring. You would think starting with the worst team would get you extra income. Nope. You fall behind more and more each race due to not winning. Start with the best team you win with ease. MM is what 10 years older and better than this. Every race has rain too.
Absolutely spectacular for anyone willing to give it a chance and take into account how much depth there actually is. Sure, its no f1 manager, but it doesn't need to be. Its a great way to get a taste of 70's racing while maintaining a casual playstyle that's not overly technical and more strategy and general team leadership based. Genuinely one of the best games I have ever played, if not the best.
This is an amazing low-fi F1M. Well worth it! Weather works, strategy works, this game WORKS! I loved guessing what the alternate track designs were based on, same for the driver names. Has enough RNG driver impacts to make it fun. edit: OMG Rodney Cambell (NPC) died LMAO
Great game! Simple, easy to learn, yet exciting and fun.
Ich habe in meiner ersten Saison 5 Fahrer verloren… Naja, passiert halt... Am Anfang war ich noch geschockt. Mittlerweile plane ich das mit ein. Ich habe kurz überlegt, ob ich das Problem bin… habe mich dann dagegen entschieden. Das Spiel kann man gut nebenbei spielen. 8/10 LG
A fun and light management game, just enough detail to keep it interesting. Also love the art style!
Proste i wciągające, plus warsztat z modami.
