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:
Time goes by quickly and we have reached the end of the first season for some PaddockGP private leagues.
This week the first two private leagues, that were created 3 months ago, will finish the season and during the following weeks the rest of leagues will be finisihing their seasons.
From here we want to congratulate all the managers who participated in this first edition, we hope you have enjoyed competing with his friends.
For this new season we have prepared some surprises for all the managers don’t matter if they renew their leagues or create new ones:
New prices: Create a private league is cheaper! Each manager will have to pay 2.99 € for a 3 months competition. Managers who are currently playing in PaddockGP will find a gift in their TRC accounts as a reward for being the firsts.
2D Viewer: A part from prices, PaddockGP managers will enjoy the new 2d Race Viewer before any TopRacers user. The new viewer is almost finished and will be activated soon.
Special League Settings: The most demanding managers can customize certain characteristics of their league to be most competitive. Among what you can configure:
All managers will start competition with exactly the same car.
All managers receive the same prizes each week.
Choose the level of weekly prizes, for example in case you want the same amount for all the managers you can choose between these levels:
Level 1: 9.000.000 €
Level 2: 8.000.000 €
Level 3: 7.000.000 €
Level 4: 6.000.000 €
Level 5: 5.000.000 €
Initial money of the teams different from the standard 2.500.000,00 €.
Reset economy. Those who want to continue with the league as it is now can restart the money of all teams.
Managers who want a special setting for their leagues should send an email to paddockgp@topracers.net.
