F1 1981 by CarloSpace [REDUX]

Post by CarloSpace »

All right ladies and gents, this is the redux of my alternative F1 management game that never got off the ground after the forum went under last summer. However, now we are back!

I will be running this game on my self-constructed excel spreadsheet(s). The first season will be based on real life values but the further we go into the alternative future, the more random this universe will get. Senna, Schumacher, Hamilton and the likes will most likely still be major players but there is no guarantee that they will be as good as in real life. Results in this universe bear a lot more relevance than results in real life universe.

So, go ahead and pick a team you wish to lead to glory! I have reserved the teams of those who signed up for the previous edition if they wish to stick to their choices. You are however free to change your pick for an unclaimed team if you so wish.

SEASON STRUCTURE
Pick teams
Sign engine & tyre suppliers
Sign drivers
--- Season start ---
First R&D period
--- Races 1-4 ---
Second R&D period
--- Races 5-8 ---
Third R&D period
--- Races 9-12 ---
Next season chassis R&D period
--- Races 13-16 ---
--- Season end ---
--- Prize money is paid out ---


CONTRACTS
A season begins with signing of engine & tyre suppliers. The listed supplier prices are minimum asking prices but teams can of course offer more money to a supplier. Teams can attempt to sign suppliers for 1-3 years long contracts. The price of engine/tyres will remain the same for the duration of the contract even if the manufacturer changes the price in the upcoming seasons.

Driver signing works largely the same way. Drivers can be signed to 1-3 years long contracts. Drivers' salaries aren't fixed but instead have expected salaries that they are asking from their future employers. Teams can offer lower salaries than the drivers are expecting but doing so will make the driver more likely to refuse the offer. Conversely a higher than expected salary will make the driver more likely to sign.

Pay drivers (listed with negative salaries) can only be signed to max. 1-year contracts. The negative salary next to their name implies the maximum amount they can pay for their seat per race.

The prices and salaries of multi-year contracts are paid yearly, not in one lump sum.

All the available suppliers, drivers and their respective prices/salaries are listed IN THIS SPREADSHEET.

The driver list contains only the most notable drivers but you are able to offer a contract to drivers also not on the list.

LOAN DEALS
Teams are allowed to sign more than two drivers to their team on the condition that the drivers are loaned out to other teams and land a racing seat for the season. Failure to land a racing seat will release a driver from their contract.

A team wishing to sign extra drivers to be loaned out must bid for them during driver bidding process separately from their main drivers' bids.
  • Extra drivers must be offered a salary greater than 0cr even if they were a pay-driver.
  • Offered contract length can be 1-3 years.
  • Loan team must be included in the bid.
  • The length of a loan deal is always a maximum of 1 season.
  • No extra monetary compensation between the two teams is allowed.

A team wishing to loan a driver from another team must bid for them during driver bidding process regularly among their other driver bids.
  • Loan drivers don't have to be offered salary since the owning team pays for their salary.
  • If the loaned driver is a pay-driver, the loaning team will receive a portion of their salary as a compensation. A portion of the driver's salary up to the amount they would bring as a pay-driver will go to the loaning team.
    - E.g. Team A signs pay-driver A. Stooge for a salary of 400cr and loans them to Team B. As a pay-driver A. Stooge would be able to bring Team B 20cr/race. Team B will receive 20cr x 16 races = 320cr as a compensation for the loan deal. Rest of the salary is kept by A.Stooge
  • The owning team of the driver must be included in the bid.
  • The length of a loan deal is always a maximum of 1 season.
  • No extra monetary compensation between the two teams is allowed.

The team bidding for extra drivers must co-operate with the team they intend to loan the driver to. Both teams will have to indicate in their bids that the driver is to be loaned from/to another team.




MID-SEASON R&D
There are three R&D periods during the season on which the teams can develop their chassis. A single period is 4-5 races long after which potential upgrades are installed to the chassis.

Before each R&D period the teams have to commit to developing their chassis by choosing their level of investment. Higher levels increase the chance for greater performance gain.
The levels and their prices are:
No R&D - 0 cr
Low - 250 cr
Moderate - 500 cr
High - 750 cr
All-in - 1000 cr



NEW CHASSIS R&D
Last R&D period of the season is reserved for development of next season’s chassis. Each team can spend between 2500-5000cr on R&D for a new chassis. Alternatively teams can develop an evolution of their previous chassis for prices between 1500-2500cr (smaller performance gain) or decide to race for another year with the same chassis (not recommended unless your team is on the brink of bankruptcy).

For single car teams these figures are: 2000-4000cr for new chassis, 1200-2000cr for chassis evolution. A single car team can expand to two cars for a one time cost of 1500cr.


DEBT AND BANKRUPTCY
Teams can go into debt during and in between seasons.

A team will be declared bankrupt if it is in debt at the end of a season for two years in a row. Keep in mind that season ends before the prize money is paid and any future prize money will not save an indebted team from bankruptcy.


BUDGETS, DRIVERS AND OTHER IMPORTANT STUFF

All the important information about teams will be found
IN THIS SPREADSHEET

Go ahead and pick your teams!

Thank you for your bids. I will make a note of your driver bids for the future when it's time for them.

I am sorry if I have been unclear but Renault and Ferrari are in fact not supplying customer teams at this moment. The 1 in their quota column marks the engine used by their own team, as opposed to Alfa Romeo which can supply 2 teams (Alfa Romeo + 1 customer). I will write a note in the sheet to clarify this for the future. :)

I assume all the prices and salaries are for asking prices?

Aislabie wrote:But they would remain on our books ahead of 1982.
You are only offering them a 1 year contract so they would be free to move teams after 1981. We don't do optional contract extensions here so you would have to offer them a longer contract if you wish to keep them on your books. Note however that you would have to offer them a salary greater than 0 to do so because pay-drivers can only commit to paying for a seat on year-by-year basis.

Let's concentrate on the suppliers first though. The reason we don't do them all in one go is that the teams on tighter budgets have to know where they stand before signing the drivers, depending on the results of the supplier bidding RNG process.

Williams Bids

Engines
1. Ford (1 year)

Tyres
1. Goodyear (3 years)
2. Avon (1 year)
3. Michelin (1 year)

We would also like to draw teams' attention to our plans to become a team that nurtures the very best drivers as well as building the very best cars.

So far, we have an agreement to place a driver at March, as well as an option to place one at Theodore. We would be willing to place at most one more driver in a team for the 1981 season.

DRIVER BIDDING
We have our chassis, engine and tyres. All we need now are drivers!

As ever, your budgets and the drivers and their respective expected salaries are listed IN THIS SPREADSHEET.

--- --- ---

Drivers can be signed to 1-3 years long contracts. Drivers' salaries aren't fixed but instead have expected salaries that they are asking from their future employers. Teams can offer lower salaries than the drivers are expecting but that will make the driver more likely to refuse the offer. Conversely a higher than expected salary will make the driver more likely to sign.

Pay drivers (listed with negative salaries) can only be signed to max. 1-year contracts. The negative salary next to their name indicates the maximum amount they can pay for their seat per race.

The driver list contains only the most notable drivers but you are able to offer a contract to drivers also not on the list.

--- --- ---

Please use the template below when bidding for drivers. Please remember to include offered contract length (1-3 years) and salary (will stay the same for the duration of the contract) for each driver. You are allowed to bid for max. 5 drivers per seat at this moment.

Code: Select all

Due to popular demand we also introduce....

LOAN DEALS
Teams are allowed to sign more than two drivers to their team on the condition that the drivers are loaned out to other teams and land a racing seat for the season. Failure to land a racing seat will release a driver from their contract.

A team wishing to sign extra drivers to be loaned out must bid for them during driver bidding process separately from their main drivers' bids.
  • Extra drivers must be offered a salary greater than 0cr even if they were a pay-driver.
  • Offered contract length can be 1-3 years.
  • Loan team must be included in the bid.
  • The length of a loan deal is always a maximum of 1 season.
  • No extra monetary compensation between the two teams is allowed.

A team wishing to loan a driver from another team must bid for them during driver bidding process regularly among their other driver bids.
  • Loan drivers don't have to be offered salary since the owning team pays for their salary.
  • If the loaned driver is a pay-driver, the loaning team will receive a portion of their salary as a compensation. A portion of the driver's salary up to the amount they would bring as a pay-driver will go to the loaning team.
    - E.g. Team A signs pay-driver A. Stooge for a salary of 400cr and loans them to Team B. As a pay-driver A. Stooge would be able to bring Team B 20cr/race. Team B will receive 20cr x 16 races = 320cr as a compensation for the loan deal. Rest of the salary is kept by A.Stooge
  • The owning team of the driver must be included in the bid.
  • The length of a loan deal is always a maximum of 1 season.
  • No extra monetary compensation between the two teams is allowed.

The team bidding for extra drivers must co-operate with the team they intend to loan the driver to. Both teams will have to indicate in their bids that the driver is to be loaned from/to another team.

Please add the following template to your bid if you wish to sign extra drivers to your team.

Code: Select all

Team: 
Extra 1: (name, salary, contract length, loaning team)
Extra 2:
Extra 3:
Extra 4:
