Official 2022 Season Preview

Post by Klon »

2022 Formula One Season Preview - No Roots

Two seasons with the new hydrogen fuel cells have been mastered, but Formula One does not stop for anybody. New materials, new drivers, new Bridgestone tyres and an ever-changing landscape promise a very thrilling season? Who will come out on top in this 12-team clash of modern sustainable racing technology.

Rule Changes:
- new aerodynamic rulesets replace the old winglet-heavy design with slick, wide-bodied cars featuring ground effects
- battery size has been reduced and fuel cells must use different materials, resulting in a minor reduction of power output
- The 5-second penalty has been abolished, the minimum time penalty is now 10 seconds

Season Calendar:
Shell Australian Grand Prix - Melbourne Grand Prix Circuit - 27 February (35 Laps)
New Zealand International Grand Prix - Bruce McLaren Motorsport Park - 6 March (53 Laps)

Sponsorship Choice

Post by Klon »

We will start the 2022 season the same way we started 2021, with the sponsorship choice. However, things are new, things are fresh and you will find out. The main difference is that you will this time pick sponsors for 2022, 2023 and 2024 at the same time.

Sponsorship

Every team that is not a works team may apply for a tier alpha sponsor at the start of every 4th season (beginning with 2022), which will pay out (per season) €50,000,000 for teams finishing in P10 to P13 in last year's World Constructors Championship, €35,000,000 for teams finishing in P5 to P9 in last year's World Constructors Championship as well as any new teams and €15,000,000 for teams finishing in P1 to P4 in last year's World Constructors Championship for hiring a driver from one out of 11 possible target regions assigned to each sponsor by the administration as it sees fit. as racing driver.

During all Grand Prix weekends of the 3 seasons, at least 1 driver from the target region must compete as a racing driver for the team. A driver from a target region condition can be released, as long as he is immediately replaced with a driver that is from the same region. Should a team fail to immediately replace the driver with a fitting one, they must return the entire sum of sponsorship earned through their tier alpha and tier beta sponsors. This does not free the team from the responsibility to fulfill the requirements of their tier beta sponsor. If injury or bans prevent a driver from the target region under contract to appear in a race, the team is not required to hire a replacement from the target region, but must return the driver from the target region to his seat at the first opportunity.

A target region driver is considered hired when a signed racing driver has the nationality of any nation within the determined target region. In case of the administration making a factual error regarding overseas territories or similar topics, the map proving unclear or in the case of dual nationalities and other fringe cases, the administration will decide in which region a specific driver belongs. Once during his career in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era any fictional driver may change their nationality if a sufficient in-character reasoning is provided. This change can only be made once, cannot be reversed and must be made after the end of the season before the change is to take place and before the end of the driver market of the season the change is to take place.

In addition, each team that is not a works team may apply for 1 tier beta sponsor each every 4th season which will pay out €10,000,000 per season. Tier beta sponsors have demands on the driver lineup, the team's last year's World Constructors Championship position or the engine contract. The demand of the last year's World Constructors Championship position is based solely on the World Constructors Championship position of the season before the application. The demands on the driver lineup and engine contract are treated the same way as the as for tier alpha sponsors. Should a driver become ineligible to fulfill the requirements of the tier beta sponsor, they may fulfill their contract without losing the sponsorship, but must be replaced with a driver fulfilling the criteria after their contract is up. A single driver is able to fulfill demands of both tier alpha and tier beta sponsors at the same time.

All teams may apply for 1 tier gamma sponsor each every 4th season which will pay out €5,000,000 per season.

For all sponsors, a RNG will determine whether they sign the contract. The RNG values will be determined by the administration based on last year's World Constructors Championship position, combined with the economical interests of the company behind the sponsor and drivers under contract with the team at the time of the RNG. Any RNG result is final, unless there is reasonable doubt about the quality of the RNG values and 5 or more users running a team request a reroll.

The actual companies behind all sponsors are chosen by the administration as it sees fit and can be changed by the administration or the user running the team if necessary. Any company may also sponsor works teams without affecting the team's sponsorship. The tier alpha sponsor is added to the team's name as the administration sees fits.

Works teams that finished 5th or lower in last year's World Constructors Championship may request manufacturer support. Manufacturer support is a one-time payment of €70,000,000 and can be requested every 2nd season. Should a works team use manufacturer support, the prize money for its World Constructors Championship position will be reduced by €30,000,000 in the season in which manufacturer support is requested and the season thereafter.


(I will try to embed it like the table in the OP if that proves possible, but for now I can't find the required code)

Driver Market + Lead Designer Market

Post by Klon »

+ Caterham (kevinbotz) - €245,000,000
+ Dawson (petoli) - €137,000,000

+ Toyota (Reject_Dom) - €202,000,000
+ Williams (Gertrand Bachot) - €178,000,000

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now for the next step(s), you will sign drivers and your lead designers.

Each team must employ 2 racing drivers and may employ either 1 sim driver or 1 driver coach; both real-life drivers and fictional drivers are permitted. The performance of a driver is determined by the administration on basis of previous achievements in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, any series sharing a fictional universe with Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era and real-life performance for real-life drivers. The two racing drivers are the drivers that actively compete during the Grand Prix weekend. Hiring a driver as sim tester gives your team a qualifying performance boost of 30 grip points and improves future RNG values for real-life drivers. Hiring a driver as a driver coach reduces the random grip range of the racing drivers by 30 points.

To be eligible to be signed as a racing driver in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, a driver must either

    have competed in 80% of a full season or 8 races, whichever number is higher, in 1 one of the last 2 simulated seasons of Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, the ARWS or Africa Racing League

    have won at least 8 Grand Prix in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era and be under the age of 45 at the start of the calendar year of the season the driver is set to compete in

    have finished in the top 6 in 1 of the last 2 simulated seasons of the FIA Formula 2 World Championship or AutoReject 3.5

    have achieved 4 pole positions and/or race victories in other series sharing a fictional universe with Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era during the previous 4 seasons

    have achieved 8 pole positions and/or race victories in real-life series during the previous 3 years based on the start of the driver market of the season the driver is set to compete in (real-life drivers)

    have been employed as a sim driver in the previous season or as a driver coach in each of the last 2 seasons

    have an active contract with a Formula 1, Formula E or W Series team in real-life at the start of the driver market of the season the driver is set to compete in (real-life drivers)

To be eligible to be signed as a sim driver in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, a driver must either

    be over the age of 16 and be under the age of 26 at the start of the calendar year of the season the driver is hired for

    have competed in less than 6 Grand Prix in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era or less than 10 races in the ARWS

To be eligible to be signed as a driver coach in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, a driver must either

    be over the age of 32 and under the age of 58 at the start of the calendar year of the season the driver is hired for

    have competed in more than 20 Grand Prix in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era or more than 25 races in the ARWS or the GT Super Series

    have achieved 12 pole positions and/or race victories in real-life series during the previous 3 years based on the start of the driver market of the season the driver is set to compete in (real-life drivers)
A fictional driver can be declared eligible at request despite not meeting any of these conditions if the driver market falls in a period where a series sharing a fictional universe with Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era has not concluded a season yet and it can be considered possible that the driver in question may have fulfilled the requirements by the time the season. If the driver is declared eligible using that method fails to achieve the requirements to be declared eligible, his eligibility is not revoked.

Any driver currently under contract that would not be eligible for his position will be permitted to remain in that position for the 2022 season, but their contract will be voided after the conclusion of the 2022 season.

Drivers can be signed at the start of the year as well as at any point during the season, except during a Grand Prix weekend. However, no driver can be hired while the position he is to be hired for is still occupied by another driver. A driver under contract as a sim driver or driver coach can be turned into a contract as a racing driver if a position as a racing driver is not occupied, if the driver is eligible to be hired as a racing driver. Each team is limited to 5 racing drivers throughout the season unless force majeure forces a team to hire more drivers. There is no limit to the amounts of offers a team can make to free agents. These contracts must specify the role of the driver, the driver's wage, the contract duration and state additional clauses. Teams may only offer a financial bonus as additional clause to a driver for WDC and/or WCC position.

Contract duration must be stated in a number of years. The minimum contract length is 1 year, the maximum contract length is 6 years (including any driver or team options). Contracts may not be prematurely extended. Teams may clarify through the use of an additional clause if they do not plan to use a driver for an entire season. Wages are separately agreed on for every year of a multi-year contract. Clauses specify additional conditions and privileges of the contract sides not covered in other parts of the contract. Teams may only offer a financial bonus to a driver for WDC and/or WCC position. Any bonus may not be staggered and can only be paid out a lump sum for any given achievement. If the administration considers a clause unclear, the administration will interpret the clause with the most driver-friendly interpretation possible.

For real-life drivers, a RNG will determine whether they sign the contract. The RNG values will be determined by the administration based on the real-life public persona if the driver. After posting their offers, any team looking to re-sign a driver that was under contract with the team in the previous season can request the administration to assess the offer from the point of view of the real-life driver and offer advice to improve their RNG odds. Any RNG result is final, unless there is reasonable doubt about the quality of the RNG values and 5 or more users running a team in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era request a reroll.

For fictional drivers, the respective DEC holder determines whether a contract offer is accepted. Should a fictional driver that has either contemporary narrative importance to Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era or achieved exceptional results in other series have its DEC abandoned, the administration can accept a contract in place of the DEC holder. Drivers signed in that way may only sign 1-year contracts without any option years. Fictional drivers must over the age of 17 and must be under the age of 44 years at the start of the calendar year of the current Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era season. A fictional driver that turns 44 during a running contract is entitled to compete for the remaining seasons of his contract, but all potential team or driver options are automatically declined. Fictional drivers whose DEC is held by administration may only be signed if 5 or more users running a team in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era agree to the signing.

Should a previously signed contract violate any rules or a new contract be found to violate these rules, the administration is entitled to unilaterally change the contract without informing the team owner or the DEC holder in case of fictional drivers. The administration can modify contracts and contract offers with fictional drivers if it considers the contract either unfairly advantageous to the team hiring the driver or egregiously inconsistent with the actions of the character in previous appearances. The team owner must be informed of those changes.

A driver can be terminated before the start of any Grand Prix weekend. Any driver terminated must be paid a compensation, which equals the lump sum of the wages a driver in future seasons (driver option years included) and all possible bonus payments. If a team temporarily replaces a driver before his contract is over, he is entitled to the same compensation, unless a clause justifies his replacement. Either compensation can be voided if the driver has scored less than 10% of the points of his teammate after 8 Grand Prix weekends after the start of his contract if said teammate has scored at least 25 points or if the DEC owner of a fictional driver has made in-character comments that can be interpreted as a desire to leave the team or excessive criticism of the team as defined by the administration. To return a driver to his role, no additional wage must be paid. During an unjustified temporary replacement, any other team may sign the driver as if they were a free agent. The original team is given €5,000,000 as compensation by the administration in case the driver is signed.

The rules regarding temporary replacement do not apply if the driver is unavailable to compete due to injury or bans. Any replacement driver signed to replace a driver that is unavailable to compete due to injury or bans will not be paid any wage. Driver contracts of bankrupt teams with real-life drivers can be terminated by the new user without paying compensation if he decides to keep the identity of the bankrupt team, driver contracts of bankrupt teams with fictional drivers can be terminated by both sides if the fictional driver is offered a contract by another team. If the user chooses to enter a new team, any existing contracts are void. Should a user fail to name a replacement driver, the team will use either their sim driver or driver coach if they are eligible to be signed as a racing driver or be assigned a replacement driver by the administration. The administration must choose the sim driver or driver coach of a different team if the user controlling said team requests that their sim driver or driver coach is used as a replacement on a loan basis unless the team in question would profit financially from such a decision.

A team that is in the minus during the season may additionally hire a free practice tester for 3 races. That driver will be assigned to the team by the administration and will provide a lump sum of €4,000,000. If one of the racing drivers of the team that hired the free practice tester is unavailable to compete due to injury or bans, the free practice tester must be used as replacement.

Active Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era drivers can freely participate in other series as well. It is the responsibility of the involved users to avoid schedule conflicts. Any time paradoxes resulting as a consequence of double-dutying will be punished by having said driver banned from Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era for 5 years and any other DECs (in case of fictional drivers) by said user being banned for the rest of the currently running season. In case of a real-life driver having an unresolved schedule conflict, the team-owning user in question will be excluded from the game, regardless of whether he owns the team in the other series causing the paradox unless the series owner of that series has caused the paradox by allowing the driver in question to sign in the series despite having known about the driver's Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era commitment, running the real-life driver in a race he was not supposed to and refusing to rerun the race or modifying their schedule to deal with the time paradox.

Any driver, at the start of their career in Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era can pick freely any unused racing number from 2-99 to represent them for the entirety of their entire career. The number selection for real-life drivers is undertaken by the administration. Should the administration consider it necessary, it may take the racing number of a real driver and assign it to a real-life driver entering Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era. Fictional drivers have their number selected by the team owner of the team they begin their career with.

Lead designers can only be hired during the lead designer market at the start of a season. Any unemployed lead designer can be signed by a team with the team chosen by the designer decided by a RNG with the odds determined by the following table (offer rank is determined by ranking the offers ascendingly according to the following formula: last year's World Constructors Championship position/years of the contract offer):
Image
(If there are more than 6 offers, the 4% are divided for all offers of rank 6 or lower)

Lead designers can be signed for up to 10 years and cannot be sacked during an active contract. Every 2nd season, the performance of all lead designers is randomly modified by the administration. The contract price is not adjusted after the performance modification.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Now for the final step(s), you will buy motors and build your chassis.

Every team must build a new car at the start of a new season. A car consists of two elements: the motor and the chassis.

At least 2 and at most 6 motor manufacturers are always available to sign motor contracts with. The in-character designation for the motors are decided by the administration. They are represented through so-called "works teams", which are responsible for agreeing on motor contracts with the so-called "customer teams". A works team is a team run by a user who has chosen to also manage the motor supply for other teams. Before the start of the motor development system, any team can apply to the administration to either become a works team or stop being a works team, depending on its current status. The administration is entitled to decide whether the application is accepted or not as it sees fit. If the application is accepted, another application may not be handed in for 4 seasons after the application is either approved or denied. After that period, the administration officially announces the works teams for the upcoming season.

The works teams provide a hydrogen fuel cell electric motor.

Each team that is not a works team must sign a motor contract with a works team. These contracts must be confirmed by the works team to the administration. The motor contract must state the motor price, the duration of the contract in full seasons. The maximum motor price is €45,000,000. Motor contracts may also contain clauses that specify additional conditions and privileges. Financial clauses (e.g. bonus payments) are not permitted, except for changing the motor price for future seasons of the contract. If the administration considers a clause unclear, the administration will interpret the clause with the most works team-friendly interpretation possible.

Works teams have an infinite motor contract with themselves for an motor price of €0. There is no upper limit to the length of an motor contract. Modifying a motor contract during the season is forbidden, but the works team can extend the contract with approval of the customer team in question and the administration. Should a user fail to come to an agreement with any works team, the administration will look at all potential offers made to said team. Should it find any of those reasonable in relation to the prices other customer teams pay, it will order the user in question to accept an offer chosen by the administration. Should it find none of the offers reasonable, the works team with the lowest amount of customers will be ordered to sign a two-year motor contract with the user at a yearly rate of €30,000,000.

Should a previously signed contract violate any rules or a new contract be found to violate these rules, the administration is entitled to unilaterally change the contract, but must inform the customer team unsolicited.

After the 8th-to-last Grand Prix weekend of the season, 10% of the motor price (rounded down to the next full half million) of each contract is added to the budget of the works team. If any of the customer teams has had a motor contract with the same works teams for 3 or 4 consecutive seasons, 25 % of the motor price (rounded down to the next full half million) of that customer team's contract is added to the budget of the works team instead. If any of the customer teams has had a motor contract with the same works teams for 5 or more consecutive seasons, 35 % of the motor price (rounded down to the next full half million) of that customer team's contract is added to the budget of the works team instead.

Every season, the performance of all motors are determined through a development system which begins with the 7th-to-last Grand Prix weekend of the season. During that time period, the works teams have their testing team run two testing days between Grand Prix weekends and two more after the conclusion of the final Grand Prix weekend and have them work on one of four things:
* motor power - the base BHP output of the motor
* qualifying mode - how much quicker your motor can go if fuel consumption is raised to the maximum
* car failure probability - how likely retirements are
* motor mass - how the weight of the motor negatively affects cornering speed

If a user is excluded from Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, motor deals of the user's team are voided after the conclusion of the Driver Market of the following season. Should a new user decide to keep the identity of the team of the user excluded, the works team may unilaterally decide to continue the contract before the conclusion of the driver market. If a user running a works team is excluded from Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era, any running motor deals are unaffected. If a works team is abolished, all running motor deals are voided and all customer teams are reimbursed the difference between the old motor price and the motor price of the contract signed as a replacement for the 1st season of the new contract.

Every team must build a chassis at the start of the year. The grip value of the chassis is determined by three separate factors: the base grip as decided by the aero department, the lead designer and the motor mass. A team must provide an in-character designation for the chassis; the user running the team can entrust the administration with that task. Any user may imply in-character that the chassis built by his team is reused from the previous seasons or based on the intellectual property of another team with the approval of the user running said team, unless the administration decides that rule changes in or out of character would make such a decision ill-fitting with the storyline of Alternate Formula One - Hydrogen Era.

Base grip is decided by the number of employees hired by a team's aerodynamics department. One employee increases the RNG floor of next season's chassis by 240 grip. Any new chassis must have at least 11,000 base grip and may have no more than either 15,000 or the highest qualifying grip of the previous season plus 200, whichever number is higher. The size of the aerodynamics department is capped at 61 Permanent Employees working on the current chassis and next season's chassis respectively (a total of 122 Permanent Employees). The method of running the RNG of the chassis is affected by the design philosophy. For the 2022 season, teams must also hire temporary employees to build the current chassis. In addition to the employees assigned to designing next season's chassis, teams can hire temporary employees to increase their RNG floor for the current seasons. Temporary employees are not included in the cap mentioned above, but can only be added until the RNG floor is the highest possible base grip minus 180. Temporary employees cannot be used for the 2022 chassis.

No team can build a new car that is more than 3 places in a base grip ranking below their previous year's World Constructors Championship position (e.g. the winners of last year's World Constructors Championship cannot possibly build any worse than the 4th-best car). Should this occur, the car will have additional base grip added as needed to move the team by raw performance into the nearest eligible position. The base grip added that way will be subtracted from any future upgrades or the base grip of the chassis of the following season after the conclusion of that season's car market.

After the base grip of a car is decided, the grip factor of the lead designer is applied and the weight penalty of the motor is subtracted from the base grip to determine the final race grip and qualifying grip (rounded down to the next full 10).
