F1 Manager 2022 update 1.10 brings improved car models, bug fixes & more

The latest F1 Manager 2022 update is here, with update 1.10 addressing several issues reported by the community and bringing quality-of-life improvements. Letā€™s look at the F1 Manager 2022 update 1.10 patch notes to find out whatā€™s new.

Improved car models

As Frontier Developments highlighted last month, F1 Manager 2022 update 1.10 adds updated car models and liveries with more accurate designs, allowing for more variance on the grid. This was a common complaint as the car designs looked nearly identical before the patch.

Additionally, the update improves the estimated race time calculations in the strategy view and adjusts preset strategy suggestions to be more competitive. Fuel usage issues in qualifying are also addressed along with optimisation improvements.

Next F1 Manager 2022 update coming later this year

Last month, Frontier Developments announced the next F1 Manager 2022 update will be the last patch with major gameplay improvements as the focus shifts to working on F1 Manager 2022. This attracted widespread backlash from the community.

However, Frontier will continue supporting F1 Manager 2022 after update 1.10, confirming the team is working to resolve issues affecting DRS in races and unlapping behind the Safety Car in the next update.

Frontier aims to fix these issues in the next patch due to arrive ā€œbefore the end of the year.ā€
