F1 Manager 2022 is the official racing management simulation game for the 2022 Formula One, Formula 2, and Formula 3 Championships developed and published by Frontier Developments. It is the first installment in the F1 Manager series and the first licensed manager game since F1 Manager by EA Sports.

Recently, new gameplay was revealed to get us ready for F1 Manager 2022's release!
As F1 Manager 2022 lines up for launch, Steve James from Frontier Developments shared some details about the latest gameplay and the Spa-Francorchamps Circuit in Belgium:
We’ve worked closely with F1 to ensure that every game aspect authentically showcases its fast-paced, exhilarating world. The Frontier team has worked hard to ensure that console players have a smooth and immersive experience. F1 Manager 2022 offers the same gameplay experience across every platform, and on console, the controls have been designed from the ground up to create seamless navigation between menus and racing action.
Coming into the historic Belgian Grand Prix at the beautiful Circuit de Spa-Francorchamps, you’ll need your wits.
Before the race weekend starts, you’ll need to ensure any parts you’re developing for this race are finalized and fitted, ready to test your new set-up at the track. Also, make the most of the data available back at your HQ, including circuit data that will provide details about the track, timing data from previous races, safety car likelihood, and potential weather forecast.
However, knowing if/when it’s going to rain is only part of the challenge. We’ve made sure to simulate the real-life challenges teams face when the weather changes; this includes how rain affects the circuit. For example, F1 car tires tend to shed a small amount of their rubber onto the track as they complete laps, providing more grip as that rubber beds into the circuit surface. If it were to rain halfway through a session, the rain would eventually start to wash this rubber away, causing a loss of grip.
Often, in F1, it’s the tire strategy that can alter the course of a race, and it’s no different in F1 Manager 2022. Get this right, and you’ll be on the podium in no time; get it wrong, and you could be floundering around at the back of the grid while your competitors sail away in a cloud of water vapor.
Changes in weather and track conditions are just two of the many difficulties you’ll face. We’re excited to see how PlayStation players take on the rest of the challenges that being a Team Principal throws at you in F1 Manager 2022.
