What goes into every Gridside recommendation, and where it comes from.
Driver and constructor prices are entered by hand from the official F1 Fantasy game after each race. Prices can change between our update and lock, so check them in the game before you make a transfer.
Race-weekend forecasts come from MET Norway, the Norwegian Meteorological Institute, and are used under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 licence.
Results, qualifying, pit stops and tyre data come from OpenF1, an unofficial community project. It is not run by or connected to Formula 1.
Public news headlines are read as background input when we prepare each race, for example to pick up grid penalties or driver changes. Headlines are never quoted in our emails.
Each recommendation is written by Claude, an AI model made by Anthropic, from the inputs above and the team you enter.
Written automatically with AI, then automated fact-checks run and an admin approves each send. It's decision support, not a guarantee: check key facts and prices in the official F1 Fantasy game before you lock.
Gridside is not affiliated with Formula 1, the FIA, any team or driver. F1 and Formula 1 are trade marks of Formula One Licensing B.V.
