About This Game

Fast. Exciting. Deadly.

The Golden Era of open-wheel racing is about to begin. Do you have what it takes to lead an iconic team through one of the most exciting decades of motorsport history?

As the head of a team, you'll make pivotal decisions that shape the destiny of your drivers and the performance of your cars. Allocate your budget wisely across drivers, support staff, car development, and sponsorships to gain an edge over the competition. Manage big personalities to get the most out of every member of your team.

But don’t forget – racing in this era is unpredictable and intense. Golden Lap is no ordinary motorsport management game.

Safety measures are improving, but accidents can happen. Car technology is advancing in leaps and bounds. You aren’t racing spreadsheets, and there’s no such thing as a guaranteed win – which makes victory all the sweeter.

Lead Your Team To Pole Position

Every season is an opportunity to etch your name in racing history. Whether you're turning a back-marker team into a championship contender or taking on the pressure of maintaining a dynasty, your decisions between races and championships will be the key to your legacy.


Hire the right crew, develop your cars, make the right calls on race day, and meet your sponsors’ goals. All while making sure not to go broke!

Your Legacy Awaits

Build a winning team with drivers, a head engineer and a crew chief. Every hire comes with rich personality traits that affect everything from finances to car performance and skill behind the wheel.

A driver with rich parents may look like they’ve saved your team by helping out with money - until they turn out to be a party animal and cost you the championship by showing up tired on race day. Your head engineer might bring down the rest of your team with their grumpy attitude, but if they’re a magician with a wrench it might be worth it? Only you can judge what your team needs.

Minimalist Style, Maximum Strategy

Golden Lap is a minimalist take on the racing strategy genre, with an intuitive UI that displays only essential information and makes it clear what each decision means – though it won’t make the decisions themselves any easier!

The amount of options and information involved in motorsport can be overwhelming for someone not familiar with it. Golden Lap cuts out the micromanagement and lets you focus on the big picture, with depth where it matters.

Unleash your creativity through the power of modding

Shape your own racing universe from the ground up by customizing teams, drivers, and fine-tuning the crew's skills and traits. Add new sponsors, craft intricate car designs, and unlock endless possibilities!

Whether you’re a seasoned modder or a newcomer, the mods feature will empower you to create a unique and thrilling experience. Join a vibrant community of creators and share your masterpieces, or challenge others with your custom-built championships. The road to glory is yours to pave!

Lead your team, choose a strategy, and build a legend!

Got covid and needed a casual game that still scratched my motor sports itch as I rest up. This has done the trick. For how simple it is it's well done and has kept me amused, engaged, and sometimes saddened after a night of celebration ends up ruining races, ending lives, and dashing the hopes of an up and coming race team.

Simple to understand hard to master it has it all and I'm enjoying learning about F1 racing despite it not being my cup of tea before this.

I like it, I'd love options for more complexity. Definitely happy for $15 and I very much prefer it over going through motorsport manager's overly long heavy cinematic experience. Under Windows I get lots and lots and lots of stuttering under acceleration. Under Linux with ProtonGE 10-13 it is butter smooth. Both are a bit iffy as far as display, entering settings will cause it to return to fullscreen. The game needs a tall aspect ratio so wide monitors in windows mode will crush the control panel/scoreboard/other components together unless you do the "move to the right/left" side of the screen thing. But besides that, when in windowed mode, it resizes and cooperates with display managers well.
