Every gearhead dreams of working on Formula One cars, and F1 Manager 2022 will make those fantasies a reality. 

F1 Manager 2022 is an officially-licensed management sim from Frontier, the studio that brought us Planet Zoo, Planet Coaster, and Jurassic World Evolution. Not only that, F1 Manager 2022 marks the start of a new annual franchise. Formula One brand director Ross Brawn spoke about what fans can expect from the game.

“The F1 Manager franchise is a great opportunity for fans to put themselves in the shoes of a team principal and experience some of that for themselves,” Brawn said in a press release. “I am confident that with their own successful track record in management gaming, Frontier will deliver an enjoyable and engaging experience for fans.”
