Ferrari Formula One Overview
Ferrari Formula One is a racing simulation that offers both individual races and full championship seasons. The game includes practice and qualifying sessions, with race distances ranging from short 18km events to full length 300km contests.
Players assume the role of managing the Scuderia Ferrari team, competing against the top drivers and constructors of the 1986 season. A significant portion of the experience involves car development at the team's facilities in Maranello and Fiorano, where aerodynamics and other performance aspects are refined. This preparatory work is presented as a necessary step to build a competitive vehicle.
During a race weekend, car setup requires adjustments to elements like wing configuration, tyre selection, and fuel management, the latter being a challenging factor due to the era's turbocharged engines. The in race perspective is from the cockpit, which features functional rear view mirrors to aid in avoiding collisions.
