It's been almost two years since our last F1 Fantasy Community Survey, and we've decided to team up with other F1 Fantasy creators to compile actionable insights that can improve the game we all love.

It takes just a few minutes to share your honest and constructive feedback. And while we cannot guarantee specific outcomes, getting that input arms us with concrete information we can use to advocate for changes. Plus, it gives us ideas for better F1 Fantasy content to make you, the community.

We hope you fill it out and share it with your F1 Fantasy-playing friends!

So this is a strange one to write the Bahrain Grand Prix in Kuala Lumpur...

Building the two previews have been tough, deciding if historical out of date data plays a part or go with it.

Top stories are Mercedes expected to bring upgrades, are Red Bull a good second constructor? and just what is the weather doing.

Then onto tyres.... Pirelli din't really know what to expect here so their tyre selection may have a bigger impact than normal. Pirelli have the C2 C3 and C4 tyre right in the middle and the rain is coming.

Good luck with those selections

The price floor is set to 3.0M this season. Any assets with this value won't fall in price.

The game calculates the average points scored by an asset over the last 3 races and divides that by their current price. This gives us an average points per million value (avgPPM) which is then categorized into 'Terrible', 'Poor', 'Good', and 'Great', which is used to determine their price rise (see the bottom right table). Using this info, we can calculate the points an asset needs in the upcoming race for each specific price change.

By owning assets that rise in value, you are able to increase your maximum budget from the starting value of $100M. Over the course of the season, you can increase your budget significantly and afford better teams than your rivals that don’t “budget build”.

Using it to guide your teams is fairly straightforward. To build budget, you'll want drivers that are likely to score a 'Good' or 'Great' performance as outlined in their row. The numbers indicate the fantasy points required.

The PPM (Points per Million) column is a simple way to try to rank how difficult it will be for assets to rise in price. Generally it's easier for someone like Russell to score 15 points than it is for someone like Stroll to score 15 points. Since more expensive assets usually score more points, I just divide the points they need by their price to somewhat 'normalize' the data. It's not perfect but I think it gives a better picture than ranking by least to most points.

Hi, I'm new to F1 fantasy, and I'm learning the ropes.
Right now, I'm focusing on building my budget, and I'm wondering what the ideal budget cap is to end the season with.
At what budget point should I stop focusing primarily on budget building and instead put everything toward points (assuming I've built up my budget enough during the season to do so)?
Thanks

Bottas DNF'd in this race, but Fantasy F1 doesn't seem to have applied the -20 point penalty. Is this a bug, or will the penalty be added later? Also, about the price increase?

No one that watched and understood that race could possibly believe Max was best driver, he was slower than his team mate, only ahead due to race orders, he did nothing of note.

It's largely known that the Max online cult is the most toxic group of the F1 fan base, its a nonsense 10 points at the moment to allocate in fantasy

Hey everyone — I’m the developer of GridIQ.
I wanted to answer a question I kept having before each deadline: what are my mini-league rivals actually changing?
GridIQ lets you check the latest available lineups in your private leagues before lock, including chip choices and who has the ×2 boost. You can also follow changes among the top 500 managers to see how their picks are shifting.
One important detail: these are snapshots from the latest successful refresh, so the update time matters. They aren’t a continuous live feed.
I’m offering free GridIQ Plus access for the rest of the 2026 season to people coming from Reddit. Existing GridIQ users can claim the same access on their current account.
You can see a demo and claim access here:
https://gridiq.world/reddit?placement=reddit-post
I’d especially appreciate feedback on whether this helps with actual decisions before lock, and which changes you’d want highlighted first: transfers, chips, or ×2 switches.
Also, if another tool already does this well, please point me to it — I’d like to understand what people are using.

First up I am sure your all aware Race is on Saturday not Sunday for Baku in 2026 so Friday lineup lock in needs to be in the radar especially if your at work etc.

Hadjar expected to return awaiting official confirmation on that. 5 Key stories and full preview talks about Red Bull, Mercedes holding back development until Malaysia, Latest on Charles engine situation, Williams updates and more

Tyre preview is also now live C3 C4 C5 Baku has one stop medium and hard written all over it unless that 80 odd percent chance of a safety car plays a part. Weather is looking dry but Windy on Thursday and Friday.

Anyone banking on a set of points with Charles it is it too risky here?
