## A board tuned for fantasy F1

Filter and sort drivers by position, team, and your own custom ratings so the right pick is always one tap away.

**Positions on the board:** Driver, Constructor

**Draft the biggest names:** Load drivers from across the FIA Formula One World Championship — for example: Red Bull, Ferrari, McLaren, Mercedes, Aston Martin

## How to run a fantasy F1 draft

1. **Build your fantasy F1 board.** Upload a CSV of drivers from the FIA Formula One World Championship with your own ranks and any rating columns you care about, or start from a template and edit it.
2. **Set the format and invite your league.** Choose a snake draft, a budget auction, or a hybrid of both, set the order or randomise it, then share one join link with your managers.
3. **Draft it live.** Every manager picks on the same synced clock. Auto-pick keeps the fantasy F1 draft moving if someone loses signal, and the commissioner can undo a pick or skip a turn if it goes wrong.

## What matters in a fantasy F1 draft

The board is only half of it — here is how fantasy F1 leagues usually approach draft day.

A twenty-driver grid divides almost perfectly between ten managers at two drivers each, which is why F1 draft leagues tend to use a straight snake and finish in fifteen minutes. Larger leagues usually add constructors as a second pool.

The grid is stratified in a way most sports are not — a handful of cars can win and the rest cannot, regardless of who drives them. That makes an auction fairer than a snake, because the top seats go to whoever values them most rather than to whoever drew first pick.

Mid-season regulation and upgrade swings can invert the order entirely. Leagues that redraft at the summer break keep things competitive; duplicating the original draft makes that a two-minute job.
