Gameplay

As a racing management game, F1 Manager 2022 offers a more detailed career layer in comparison to the My Team mode that Codemasters introduced in F1 2020.[1] The game provides a strategy editor, where you can schedule pit stops, tyres and pace for each stint.[2] The game features parts development, cost cap, ERS as well as onboard cameras used in real life by Formula One teams.[3] It also features the professional English commentator voices of Karun Chandhok and David Croft, as well as the opening titles for Formula One broadcasts shown after the Frontier Developments logo, while the transitions are recreated while being more faithful to the Formula One broadcasts.[4] The game includes real engineers and drivers from Formula One, Formula 2 and Formula 3.[5] Team radios from real Formula One drivers and race engineers are available as well.[6] Red flags are also featured.[7]
