We have updated the TopRacers version. Now new features are available:
- Improvements in the 2D viewer: you can select a driver in the timetable results during the race, and the corresponding driver on the left side of the screen will be highlighted in another color.
- Get FREE TRC: at main menu there is a new section, Earn TRC, dedicated to getting free TRC by completing surveys or being a member of other sites quickly and easily.
We almost have the next version of TopRacers F1 Manager ready. It will be brought up to date this week. This new version finally incorporates the new 2D Viewer, but we have also made some improvements in access to screens from the competition menu and in some other screens.
Competition Menu
Competition Menu in TopRacers F1 Manager
Starting now, we will have 4 new options on the menu:
Train: This takes you directly to the next round of training that we are waiting to launch. So, if we have not launched a round and the time has not passed, it will take you to the T1.
Qualify: This takes you to the car setup for qualification. If it has already passed, you can see the settings used and results on the same screen (new tab).
Race: This takes you directly to configuring the cars and race strategy.
Results: This opens a screen of results for you from the last event completed.
Changes in Setup Screens
The new options “Train,” “Qualify,” and “Race” take us to the corresponding event setup screen. This screen has undergone some changes to facilitate the most common TopRacers F1 Manager tasks.

New Car Selector
The car selector now allows you to see the state of both cars at the same time, so it is easy to see if one is lacking in configuration. You can click on the cars and the right side of the screen will update.
Results on the Same Screen
Once a round is completed, in the “Results” and “Details” tabs you can see how the setting worked for the selected pilot. This allows you to compare settings and results without switching screens.
Launch “On Demand” Round
Finally, in the upper left-hand corner we have added a small command box that allows you to take action on the round. You can select the round that you want to see and launch it immediately or see it in delay (if you have an active 2D Viewer).
League Screen
The league screen has been slightly modified to allow managers with the 2D Viewer active to see the rounds delayed.

2D Viewer
This new update also incorporates the new 2D Viewer, currently for the active professional accounts. Managers with a professional account can exclusively try out the new visor and be the first to send us suggestions and comments on how to improve or correct this first version.
Starting now, we are working on the next update in which we will try to also improve some other screens to facilitate easy access to the most common screens.
We have just published a test version of the 2D viewer in Paddock GP. All managers that have an active league will be able to enjoy this new viewer.
As it is still under testing we will keep the current live broadcast screen together with 2D Viewer. This way if anyone doesn’t like watching it on 2D (we doubt it hahah) he/she will be able to watch it there.
In order to access the 2D you have to select the option “MASS MEDIA” on the menu and choose “Broadcast 2D“. For those that still don’t know what our 2D viewer is, here is the preview video:
