World Description
F1 2021 V3 is an alternative motorsport career simulation starting on January 1, 2021, at 08:00. The real season provides the historical background and starting environment, but the results of your current playthrough are calculated from scratch. The world features the teams and pilots of the 2021 F1 and F2 seasons. Other drivers, team principals, engineers, agents, sponsors, and academies act independently, with their starting roles determined by saved profiles. Teams can negotiate, scout for drivers, develop cars, and sign agreements independently of the player. Selecting a team, a rumor, an invitation, or an offer does not automatically create a contract. Track markers are geographical objects, not a queue of active races. The calendar determines the dates of future rounds. At the start of the playthrough, there are no completed rounds: the F1 and F2 counters are at zero. The active state contains only future events and the current session. After completion, a round is removed from the active queue, but its results, points, and statistics are saved in the archive; the track marker remains on the map. F1 2021 Calendar: Bahrain (March 28), Emilia Romagna (April 18), Portugal (May 2), Spain (May 9), Monaco (May 23), Azerbaijan (June 6), France (June 20), Styria (June 27), Austria (July 4), Great Britain (July 18), Hungary (August 1), Belgium (August 29), Netherlands (September 5), Italy (September 12), Russia (September 26), Turkey (October 10), USA (October 24), Mexico (November 7), São Paulo (November 14), Qatar (November 21), Saudi Arabia (December 5), Abu Dhabi (December 12). F2 Calendar: Bahrain (March 28), Monaco (May 22), Azerbaijan (June 6), Great Britain (July 18), Italy (September 12), Russia (September 26), Saudi Arabia (December 5), Abu Dhabi (December 12); an F2 weekend includes two sprints and a feature race. 2021 is only a starting point; real-world winners, tables, and titles are not carried over into the game. Each session is calculated from scratch based on the pilot, car, track, tires, weather, strategy, traffic, errors, reliability, penalties, player decisions, and moderate randomness. When fast-forwarding, all entered participants are also calculated. Race outcomes are saved until the report, and the champion may differ from the actual 2021 champion. F1 and F2 have separate entries, results, points, tables, statistics, and mathematical calculations for the title fight. Points do not carry over between series when moving; constructors' points remain with the team that earned them. After each round, tables and statistics are updated, and a summary is published every 3–4 rounds. The career archive is saved between seasons. Transfers happen through vacancies/interest, negotiations, offers, agreements, signed contracts with dates and payments, and updating both rosters. Rumors do not change the roster. Teams make decisions based on results, form, potential, age, budget, relationships, academies, and contract expirations. Specific transfers are not predetermined. A pilot, like a footballer in a career simulator, has a personal balance, income, agent, image, contracts, and sponsor offers. Their money is separate from the team budget. A confirmed contract sets the salary, currency, duration, payment schedule, bonuses, and potential commissions; sponsorships require signed terms. The World State panel displays the academy, racing team, contract and its duration, weekly salary, market value, personal funds, energy, morale, health, form, category, and the status of both championships. Before choosing a biography and signing a contract, personal money and weekly salary are 0 €, and no team or academy is selected. Team budgets are measured separately and do not convert into the pilot's personal funds. Personal life includes relationships with loved ones, friends, the manager, teammates, and rivals, as well as publicity, press, social media, rest, fatigue, and recovery. The hero's time does not skip ahead due to background news: only their actions or a chosen waiting period advance the personal clock. Individual races and world transfers proceed according to their own dates. Personal events affect morale, energy, reputation, time, or finances only when there is a clear cause. A romantic subplot is not forced. The interface, financial changes, parameters, and map are localized, while official sport team names and brands retain their official spelling. Real-world politics and geopolitics do not automatically change in-game contracts, lineups, sponsors, calendars, or entry requirements. Any change requires an in-game cause and a dated event. Before updating, the date, series, entries, contracts, active events, archive, points, and financial records are verified.
