Frontier Developments is making its F1 racing management sim - the aptly F1 Manager 2022 - free to try this weekend on Steam.
F1 Manager 2022 - the first of four games planned for release under Frontier's F1 licensing deal - launched last August, putting players in the role of a team principal and challenging them to lead their "drivers, engineers and fans to glory in the 2022 FIA Formula 1 Drivers' World Championship and FIA Formula 1 Constructors' World Championship".
While it adequately filled enough of a niche to draw a positive response at launch, players quickly began to criticise the game for its shallow, undercooked features and a significant number of bugs - but any hopes of major improvement were quickly quashed when Frontier announced it was ending support for the game less than two months after launch.
