Frontier is ending support for F1 Manager 2022 before the F1 season is even over

techradar.com:

A few months after its release and Frontier is already ending support for F1 Manager 2022, its racing game managment simulator. 

Frontier’s first steps into motorsport simulation with F1 Manager 2022 is an impressively deep game, letting us give Lewis Hamilton the win he deserves, but it turns out it won’t be getting much post-release support. 

Merely two months after F1 Manager 2022’s release, Frontier said in a Reddit post that the “next update for F1 Manager 2022 will be the last significant update that addresses player-reported feedback, or suggested changes and additions. Any potential updates following this would be minor patches that do not noticeably affect gameplay.” 

Frontier says that it is listening to “key reports and requests” from the community; however, these updates will be seen in upcoming releases and not in F1 Manager 2022. 

Frontier tried to reassure fans by telling them interactions between developers and the community wouldn’t end there and that they will always take on board advice and criticism that the community send its way. However, this didn’t seem to quell complaints.

One key criticism leveled at F1 Manager 2022 is that there are frustrating bugs, such as an issue with overtaking, and there are also problems with the Drag Reduction System, the feature that allows cars to go significantly faster on straight sections of track. 

Other issues players pointed out in the comments under the Reddit announcement were the inability to unlap their car when under a safety car, issues with signing up drivers mid-season, and AI drivers struggling to keep up with car development across a season. 

Each one of these problems are quite fundamental to a driving game, and so it is frustrating that they won’t be added
