F1® Manager 2024 casts you as the decision-maker for a Formula 1 team, placing race strategy alongside the less visible work of building a competitive organisation. You can lead one of the ten official constructors or, for the first time in the series, create a team of your own. The central appeal is not simply watching a race unfold: drivers execute your instructions while you weigh decisions from the pitwall, presented through broadcast-style race visuals.
The management continues beyond race day. Across multiple seasons, you oversee driver and staff recruitment, car development and facilities, while negotiating sponsor placements and shaping your custom team’s identity through its origin, livery, logo and racing suits. A new Mentality System makes relationships part of that balancing act: staff and drivers have personalities and needs, and favouring one driver or enduring poor results can affect morale. You can also nurture prospects from F2 and F3 through an affiliate pool. On track, mechanical failures add risks to manage as cars are pushed lap after lap; refreshed circuit visuals and a strategic bird’s-eye Helicam view support race planning.
Race-day choices sit within a broader season-and-career structure, while Race Replay lets players relive and redefine moments from the 2024 championship. The result combines strategic race control with personnel, development and team-building decisions.
