Feel the emotional highs and lows of the drivers as they compete for victory. A spin, pit stop error or failed overtake may affect your driver’s confidence. Weigh up the risks and use the new Driver Tactics options to instruct your drivers on how to approach the racing action and come out on top of important battles for positions.

Compete at the highest level of motorsport with more depth and detail than ever before. Older drivers will regress as they age, so scout the simulated F2™ and F3™ championships for the next generational talent. In order to catch the enhanced race AI, making the next breakthrough in car development is more important than ever. Balance the push for performance against the need to replace less durable parts.

Hire an experienced Sporting Director, opening up the ability to manage your pit crew’s training regime and hone their skills, crucial for a successful race weekend, avoiding costly errors and winning the Fastest Pit Stop award.

Race Replay is an entirely new mode, allowing you to relive every race and pivotal moments in the 2023 season, The first way to prove yourself with Race Replay is Starting Grid: choose any team and take on the starting grid and track conditions from the actual race to see if you have what it takes to do better.

[h3]New Staff Member: The Sporting Director[/h3]

New for 2023 is the Sporting Director, a key staff member responsible for trackside operations and bringing you the ability to manage and improve your team’s pit-crew. Your Sporting Director comes with their own set of performance ratings that will drive growth within your team. A strong Aptitude rating is crucial for increasing the overall potential of your mechanics, while Leadership will inspire fewer pit-stop mistakes. Instruct your Sporting Director to focus on developing themselves in the areas that you think are the most important for success.

You can also direct pit-crew training, choosing between multiple, monthly regimes or creating custom plans from the ground up. for a balanced approach or focus on specific areas you want your crew to improve on. For example: “Pit Stop Errors” will put focus on improving consistency, while “Fatigue Reduction” will increase rest days and lower the chances of a fatigue-related mistake. You’ll also manage specific, pit-stop drill focuses. Whether it’s releasing the car, or loosening and replacing tyres, each pit-stop drill will lower or increase the chances of error, depending on how well you balance your training regime.

Get it right and you’ll be snatching positions mid-race and scoring points towards the Fastest Pit-Stop competition.
