F1 Manager 2022 replicates podium celebrations and live reactions following successful overtakes as seen by fans during actual F1 races. The team used real F1 car components and professional motion capture performers to create realistic animations and experiences. The BWT Alpine team and pit crew worked with the developers to replicate pit-stops and implement them in-game.

In F1 Manager 2022, as in the real sport, a well-orchestrated pit-stop can be the difference between success and disappointment. Players will have to utilise their tactical planning to adapt their strategy on the fly, investing in their race engineers and managing their pit crew’s training focus to mitigate the risk of a mistake.
