About Formula TOP
Career mode
The career mode is all about a simulation-style experience. Team performances evolve over time and even new teams enter the field replacing old ones. You start in a backmarker team trying to work your way up. Solid race performances will aid development and refined teamwork over the years improves car setups, but at some point it's often better to move on. Keep up with the active driver market and impress with your race performances to secure a seat in the best possible team for the following season. When you have the car for it, push hard for the championship!Feel the traction
Formula cars are the greatest racing cars in the world with amazing speed, downforce and grip. The game's driving model is built to emphasize this; hitting that apex just right really makes a difference. Slipstream overtakes and intense side-by-side battles create a great race experience. The AI drivers make mistakes, line up for overtakes and offer an engaging challenge for all skill levels.Pit strategy
Optimize risk in your tire strategy on different tracks and temperatures to maximize grip throughout the race. Push to gain positions with your fresh soft tires or try to hold your ground long enough with hard tires to take advantage of the extra durability.Dynamic weather
Dynamic weather adds a whole other dimension to strategy. Do you start with wet tires on clear weather to get ready for the coming rain or leave those who do in the dust with soft tires? Or maybe you will do a longer stint with intermediate tires since the rain is light and won't last long. Whatever your plan, always be ready to adjust during the race. Reacting to the strategies of others and taking risks can make underdogs into winners.Damage and engine modes
Watch out for damage that will affect your car's speed and suspension, some can be fixed during a pit stop, but not all. Whenever you feel the race is slipping away from you and you need just a little extra power, you can push your luck with the high engine mode. If you end up with an engine failure or you just want to conserve your tires, you can use the low engine mode to control the situation.Online multiplayer and leaderboards
Play with friends for fun or arrange races on the Discord server to test your skills against the best. Hit up time trials to chase the perfect lap and climb the leaderboards.Steam Workshop, spectator mode and more
Tinker with the data to create your fantasy series; driver and team data and textures files are all moddable and can be shared in the Steam Workshop. Lay back and watch the AI drivers do their thing in spectator mode. Unlock tiny cars and do donuts. Enjoy!What Steam players say

✦ AI summary
Players praise this budget-friendly top-down F1 racing game for its engaging AI, realistic handling, and excellent value, with many considering it superior to newer AAA racing titles. However, common complaints include performance issues like stuttering, occasional crashes during certain game modes, and camera problems, though developers have shown responsiveness to fixing control-related bugs reported by players.
Pretty good game for 10£, and easily the best top-down racing game ever. Really fun, AI is feisty and aggressive, they want to win as much as we do, especially on harder difficulties.
this game is super fun for F1 fans,me personally i love playing the quick races 10/10 game i'd say it's better than the new F1 games by EA
Review changed to positive because the Devs fixed the issue for which I am grateful. Original negative review left for historical context: [strike]Another racing game that won't allow you to use the right stick for accel and brake. Unfortunately this is all too common and for the most part I don't even bother looking at racing games anymore but I though I'd give this a shot on the sale and am left asking for a refund. Many racing games just won't allow you to reassign the right stick at all, but some of them do what this game does - allow you to assign it, but it doesn't distinguish between up and down on the stick. So whilst you can re-assign both brake and acceleration to the right stick, you are essentially pressing the brake and accel at the same time. Unfortunately this is common. So I took the brake off the stick and found out that the game treats the up and down extremities as maximum acceleration and the middle as no acceleration. Steam controller support does not allow you to assign stick axis to trigger inputs, never has and presumably never will. This would open up a world of games for me. I tried the game with the digital inputs but the game really does need analo…
this is a great f1 game, the handling is good and tracks are realistic. my only note is that my game crashes everytime i do a championship race or a career. i can only quick race for it to save.
Well I was shopping for something alike assetto corsa, but ended up with this. It feels good, it looks decent. Its stuttering like hell for me and the camera is less then helpful sometimes, but if you like Formula TOP you see on TV, you will enjoy this as well, 12EUR is too much though... buy in discount.
A very underrated game. The controls feel spot on, weather conditions, damage, pits, fuel mix, tyre changes, strategy. It's all there. Couple it with Steam Workshop and you have a fantastic little F1 racer. I love how the teams chatter between sessions, like someone is disappointed, while others are doing better than they thought. Then the team offers start rolling in for next season if you punch well above your weight.
