Pit Wall GP

Pit Wall GP is a pixel-art Formula racing management game. You don't drive. You sit on the pit wall, run a team of two drivers through a 10-race championship, and make the calls that win or lose races.

What you do

• Build your team: Pick a name, colors and difficulty, then design your own logo in the built-in editor with shapes, layers and templates. Sign two drivers and go racing.
• Run the race: Call pit stops, choose tire compounds, set pace and ERS modes, and issue team orders while watching the field on the pixel track.
• Gamble on the weather: Forecasts can be wrong. Choose between slicks, intermediates and wets as the track gets wetter or dries out.
• Manage the car and the budget: Develop 8 areas of the car, upgrade your facilities, train your drivers, and stay under the $30M season cost cap.
• Survive the chaos: Mistakes, crashes, mechanical failures, safety cars and VSCs can all wreck your plan. Repair bills come out of your budget.
