Formula One is a racing game with a difference. Players need to use
tactics to maintain a balance between speed, tyre wear and brake wear over an
agreed number of laps. The game board represents a race track around which
players race their cars. Each player also has a dashboard corresponding to
the colour of their car, which acts as a reminder throughout the race of
speed, tyre and brake wear and lap indicator.

The rule book includes an option on how to play the game as a league championship. In this edition, the penalty chart for excessive
speed and braking is printed on the game board. In later editions the
penalty chart is a separate free standing card for all players to see.
