Formula Lee 2019 Winter Series

Welcome to the 1st Formula Lee Winter Series! OK, so there’s no real F1 until March 2018, but we’re not going to let that stop us and we’re carrying the video game challenge on over the winter months

HOW TO PLAY:

All you need is the Codemasters game F1 2018 on either PC, PS4 or X-Box One and go to Time Trial Mode with Classic Cars. You can use any of the assists available (ABS, Automatic Gears and Traction Control) and it doesn’t matter if you use a wheel or a controller (or even a keyboard if that’s your driving style!) Once you’ve set your time with the car, circuit and weather conditions picked by Lee on the podcast, send a screengrab or photo of your time (don’t forget it MUST be a legal time in the game) to us, either by Twitter DM (@3legs4wheels), Facebook private message or email by the cutoff time for that race, or if you’re on PS4, send a friend request (with your real name) to pabstar (Paul) to pick up from the in-game leaderbaord.

The top 20 times will all score points (20 for 1st down to 1 for 20th) and if we can get a sponsor, there will be prizes at the end of the mini-season

Race 4 was the last race of the mini winter series and was a lap of the Circuit de Barcelona-Catalunya track and to make up for a lack of Williams for the first 2 1/2 days of testing it’s was in Nigel Mansell’s 1992 FW14B and in the dry. The times looked like this:
