The season pass

The season pass email, written for your team

Here's a season pass email from the Bahrain GP at Sepang (Round 16), written for a real team with $0.7M left in the cost cap.

G

Gridside

Ocon out, Bearman in · Bahrain GP, Round 16

TRANSFER

Esteban Ocon out, Oliver Bearman in

Same Haas car, $3.5M cheaper, and Bearman finished P9 in Baku. Fits your budget with room to spare.

BOOST

Kimi Antonelli

Already your Boost, so keep it there. P5, P1, P1 in his last three races, and Mercedes bring upgrades to Sepang.

CHIP

Hold

Save Final Fix for Singapore (Round 17), a Sprint weekend on a street circuit where a poor qualifying is hard to recover from.

CONFIDENCE

Medium-Low

An 86% rain forecast at a circuit F1 hasn't raced on since 2017 makes this weekend hard to call.

The method

HOW WE MAKE THE CALL

No hedging, no data dumps, no hype. The call comes first, with two or three sentences of reasoning so you understand why, not just what. Every season pass email is written for your team, from fresh race data gathered that week:

  • Your team. Drivers, constructors, cost cap, free transfers, which driver holds your Boost, and the chips you have left.
  • This week's prices, updated after each race. Every transfer is checked against current F1 Fantasy prices and your cost cap before the email is sent. No moves you cannot afford.
  • The last race in detail. Results, DNFs, qualifying, pit stops and three-race form for every driver.
  • The weekend ahead. Circuit characteristics, the weather forecast and Pirelli's tyre choice.
  • The news. Trusted F1 news sources, scanned for grid penalties and withdrawals, so a crash someone else caused is not counted against your driver.
  • Checked before it is sent. Automated fact-checks compare the reasoning with the race data, so the email does not quote form or results that did not happen.

Chip strategy accounts for scarcity. Six chips, one season, no second chances. Before any chip call we look at the races still to come, and we never point you at a race that has already happened.

Confidence levels are honest, not decoration. A medium confidence pick means there's a real variable in play, usually weather or reliability, and we name it.
