Definitely the best motorsport manager, theres no competition, but there are some things that i think should be changed, and or added. 1: 10 Season limit. Ive heard that the game limits you to ten seasons of gameplay, which is fine, but there should be an option to do more than that. 2: Little pop ups on incidents that happen during the race instead of the text popups would be better in my opinion, like text above of what occured and some cool artwork like in the trailer showcasing what occured. 3: If the season limit is removed then whenever it does the little car building animation it should change the cars year based on the year od the season, like 1970, 1975, 1980+ 4: We need newer versions of the tracks, more trackls would be a great addition. Overall, amazing experience.

I enjoy this game a lot. I like that it is a very simple management game to just pick and play and the feeling of bringing a team from the back of the grid to the top is great. That first win with team Night at Francis' Hollow was great. I like the fact all the tracks and teams are based on real tracks and teams from the time (Ezzolini -> Ferrari | April -> March | Weyland -> Tyrell, etc.) I do have a couple of complaints. Far too often the race is over by the end of the first lap and it's uncommon for there to be a fight at the sharp end of the grid. No driver went back to back in the 1970s but every save Moretti wins the first 2 to 3 titles in a row. Using the 25-18-15-12-10-8-6-4-2-1 + FL system doesn't make sense given this is supposed to be based on the 70s which used the 9-6-4-3-2-1 System. Mechanical DNFs should be more common and the ability to drop a driver midseason would be nice. More superficial things I would like to see is the ability to check drivers career stats even if they aren't on your team and the ability to check full race by race results in season and not just where your drivers finish. With that said this game is still a ton of fun. Its intuitive and easy to understand with enough complexity to keep you engaged. Working your way through the grid is exciting and I would recommend this game to anyone who wants to play a management game but doesn't have the time or energy for a more in depth game like F1 Manager or is just getting into the genre.

If you liked the original Motorsport Manager game... well... this is pretty much the same game. :P Not bad just not much depth. Nice art style. My biggest complaint is that it doesn't save after practice/qualifying so you pretty much have to play for an hour at a time. Steam needs a "Neutral" recommendation. It's an ok time filler..

This is really good... but if you already have "Motorsport Manager" this would arguably be a redundant purchase. That game has better graphical presentation of the races and slightly more depth with the pit crews but it also has unbearable in-game email spam. If you hated the spam of that game but still liked the rest of it, then this game is for you. They have virtually the same game loop otherwise.

I almost passed on this one. I've played Motor Sport manager and F1 Manager, and I didn't see what this game offered that those games didn't already do or better. But I like the developer, and have enjoyed their other games, so I took a shot anyways. Really glad I did. I don't know how or why what they've done works better than those other two games, but I actually enjoy playing this one. Like, it's just lighter and more enjoyable. The theme just feels good. - Can we get more statistical tracking? I've just started my second season but I'd like to have a little information on the previous races we've had at the tracks that are on the calendar this year. Or like a hall of trophies room or something. Just need a little more world building as we pass through seasons.
