![]() ![]() The drops from the sky are the great equalizer in motorsport and could be our chance to finish in the points. It’s supposed to rain at the race in Australia. A report from our analysts tells us that we’re lagging behind the other teams in braking in particular, so I invest the point in this skill. This allows us to increase one of his attributes. Lance Stroll, who as a youngster still has high growth potential, receives a development point as a result. In our case, unfortunately, this has little influence on the result, but good practice sessions and a few fights on the track at least earn the drivers nice experience points. The better these three things go, the more bonus points the drivers receive to their attributes for qualifying and the race – a maximum of 15 bonus points are possible for each Grand Prix. During free practice, they also have to get used to the track and adjust to any new car parts we bring. To do this, the game has made use of a mini-game that already exists in Motorsport Manager – you send the drivers out in free practice, get feedback, and then try to adjust the car via five sliders until it suits the pilots. ![]() In the next Grand Prix there’s not much to be gained once again, but at least I manage to provide Sebastian Vettel and Lance Stroll, whose despairing real-life radio messages perfectly underscore the team’s dismal situation, with car set-ups that give them confidence this time. If you start with Aston Martin or another backmarker, you’ll need patience. I also commission upgrades to the design center and wind tunnel, which should yield results later in the season. In this case, we meet in the middle, as the team is under pressure to progress and the engineer in question currently doesn’t have a job. This gives me an idea of what the candidate has in mind in terms of salary and bonuses. Our chief engineers have below-average ratings, so I take a look at alternatives and assign a scout to take a closer look at my favorite. To make the leap to the midfield, I’m commissioning a new chassis design and a new underfloor. So we cart around somewhere in no man’s land and drive our own race, which isn’t exactly exhilarating.īack at headquarters, there are at least a few rays of hope: Our budget situation is decent and our facilities for personnel, business and vehicle construction are a solid foundation for the future. The Williams are significantly slower, but the rest are decisively faster. In the first race, we’re stuck at the back. I took the helm at the team from Silverstone shortly before the start of the season and found a disaster – our car is a tractor and, unlike in real Formula 1, the team doesn’t already have an alternative in production.
