F1 Redraft

Draft Game

F1 Redraft

All 11 real teams wipe their lineups and redraft from scratch. Pick a team, then take turns with 10 CPU rivals for the same 35-driver pool. Every pick you make is a driver nobody else can have. Once every seat is filled, the new grid races a real season.

What is F1 Redraft?

F1 Redraft is a free game where all 11 real F1 constructors wipe their driver lineups and redraft from scratch, snake-draft style: inspired by "ultimate redraft" formats in other sports. You draft for one real team of your choice; the other 10 are CPU-controlled and pick automatically from the same shared pool. Once every team has its 2 drivers, the new lineups race a real season using the site's own Monte Carlo engine, producing full final Drivers' and Constructors' standings.

How does the draft work?

It's a 2-round snake draft, 22 total picks, since every F1 team runs 2 cars. Round 1 goes from the weakest real current team to the strongest (standard draft-parity order); round 2 reverses that exact order, so whoever picked last in round 1 picks first in round 2. Every driver you pick is gone for everyone else; that scarcity is the whole game.

Who's in the draft pool?

35 current-era drivers: every driver with a real 2026 race seat, plus recently-active and reserve names from the last few seasons. It's deliberately not an all-time historical pool: that's what What If Simulator and F1-0 are for. Redraft is about the current grid, reshuffled.

What data does the season simulation use?

The real current season's calendar, and each real team's current relative car strength: the same inputs behind the site's other Monte Carlo simulations. Drivers without a live 2026 seat are rated on their career Elo instead. Your drafted lineup then races the actual 2026 calendar from round 1.
