Fans will define their sporting stories as an F1 Team Principal; choosing to forge their own path during the 2024 season and beyond with the exciting new Create A Team mode or leading an official Formula 1 Team in Career mode. Fans will also be able to relive and redefine the action in the returning Race Replay mode, where they will be challenged to deliver improvements on real race results.

For the very first time in the franchise’s history fans will have the option to create and lead their own custom team to victory, building a legacy alongside the sport’s greatest names as they orchestrate their ascent to the top of the podium. Customising elements of their team, players can curate their creativity to bring their dream designs to life, whilst negotiating sponsorship opportunities to ensure a steady stream of income to fuel their ambition. Identifying up-and-coming talent to rise up the grid order or cherry-picking the biggest stars in the sport in the pursuit of immediate success, the choice is theirs to make before the covers are lifted from their championship challenger. 

Critical to their team’s lasting success will be how Team Principals manage their development off the track, designing new car upgrades and driving innovation in the pursuit of immediate performance or investing in an advanced headquarters to create a legacy and attract the envy of rivals. F1® Manager 2024 introduces a new mentality system for drivers and staff, bringing individual personalities and demands to the fore as players aim to maintain their team’s motivations amidst the pursuit of glory and challenge for the sport’s biggest prizes.  However, in Formula 1® every team strives to be the one lifting the trophies and rival teams will provide a constant threat year-on-year, with enhanced AI closing the gap between players and their competitors both on and off the track, whilst the underlying threat of drivers and staff being poached means that a paddock shake-up is never far away. 

As the lights go out, fans will direct every thrilling moment from new strategic perspectives, immersing themselves in the action from on-board cameras or assessing their next decision from above. Issuing commands to their drivers via their voiced race engineers, players will weigh up crucial strategy calls and overtaking opportunities as they seek glory, with improved racing behaviours blurring the lines between simulation and reality. Success can slip away at any moment however, with the ever-present threat of a mechanical failure able to disrupt even the strongest of strategies, putting vital championship points at risk. 

F1 Manager 24 is coming to PS4, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S and PC (Steam) in summer 2024 at £29.99/$34.99/€34.99.
