    You can tell a lot of time and effort has gone into making F1 Manager to be as polished and as detailed as it is, I genuinely wasn’t expecting this much detail and depth as a first entry into the series. F1 Manager can easily be labelled as the best F1 Management game ever and I hope all fans of management and strategy games pick this up and enjoy it as much as I am!

    F1 Manager 2022 is a fantastic sports simulation title. With an in-depth and methodical approach, this will be a hit with its many fans. I loved the slow planning stages, the hiring and firing of staff, and the layers of research and development. What's more, the racing is enthralling, intense, and everything you'd hope it would be. If you love F1, then you'll adore this.

    Between the ecstasy of nicking a top-10 finish, and the agony of being ploughed into a barrier – F1 Manager 22 is a faithful recreation of the motorsport. For better or worse. The game won’t convert people to the sport in the way Drive to Survive has, or in the way FIFA and Football Manager work magic, but there’s a serious simulation here and die-hards, above all, will appreciate it the most...The people who follow the sport week in, week out will have the most fulfilling experience out of any possible userbase. Novices may find it a little tough to get into if they are blinded by the data and the sheer volume of information on offer. However, there’s a rewarding experience for all to be had, and genuine thrills on offer. It is fast-paced and brainy, with plenty of meat on the bones.

    A game that takes management to the F1 with great elements that make it shine. Certainly, there are aspects to polish but this could jump start an IP in the right way.

I was addicted like whole weekend and days after. Its not perfect, but its addicting as hell. Love it! What a surprise game. I choose aston martinn, fired all 3 drivers and hire young talents. Play everything manually, P1 always put reserve driver, if you are clever enough, you will hunt back with 2nd driver all bonuses back. I will not spoiler you, but its doable. Slowly climbing from the bottom to the middle... excellent, really love it. Everything. For that fun, I can close one eye for some not so great stuffs there... but still. Is it enjoyable? Yes, very much. I have 50hrs in it and still love it. Full Review »
