Game Guide
Extracted from the original game manual
In this Formula One racing game, players step into the high-pressure world of professional motorsport after qualifying for the prestigious International Formula One Racing Association (IFORA) Grand Prix Circuit.

To claim the World Championship, players must master a variety of challenging international speedways and narrow European street courses.
Story
IFORA Welcome
Congratulations! You and your racing team have met the minimum eligibility requirements for competition on the International Formula One Racing Association's (IFORA) Grand Prix Circuit! You have made it to the big time in motor sports and can now compete against the best Formula One drivers in the world!
While you have exhibited considerable skill and promise at the amateur level, let me remind you that things are different on the pro circuit. The caliber of competition that you will face will intimidate you, and the courses you will drive on are without doubt the most challenging you will ever face.
It takes a special combination of guts and driving ability to succeed in this circuit's dangerous, high-pressure atmosphere. The select few that have risen to the top are now your peers. If you wish to join their honored ranks, I suggest that you learn from them quickly. Good luck and good racing!
Life in the Fast Lane
The breakneck world of Formula One racing is populated by a very special and unique breed of driver. At the wheel of low-slung, open-wheeled (fenderless) single-seaters, they may find themselves hurtling at mind-numbing speed down a narrow European side street, or negotiating a turn at a major international speedway.
The incredible variety of track layouts and conditions in which Formula One cars compete require them to be smaller and more maneuverable than their counterparts that race on left-turn-only tracks.
Grand Prix History
Grand Prix auto racing got its start early in the century when Europeans began using closed highways as forums for their races. After World War I, the Paris-based Federation Internationale l'Automobile began building cars to meet the brutal demands of these types of courses according to a still-evolving formula.
Engineered to be completely functional in every aspect of their design, Formula One cars have a spartan appearance. Later, Americans would popularize the large, closed-circuit "speedways," and in 1950 Grand Prix developed into a 12-race international competition for the World Championship of Drivers.

Tips & Maps
IFORA RACING TIPS
Since the first lap of a qualification race is not timed, it is best to drive slowly to preserve tire grip, and soft, high-traction Q-grade tires are recommended.
Championship Mode Engine Strategy
Players start with a V-8 engine and should save their Money Points instead of buying SP Gas or other parts until they can upgrade to the more versatile V-10 engine.
Braking and Cornering
To maintain speed during turns, drivers should pump the brakes slightly and accelerate delicately, using SP Gas after the turn to regain lost speed quickly.
Spinout Recovery
In a spinout, push the accelerator intermittently to maintain speed and field position, allowing you to risk pushing your machine to its limit.
Rear-end Collisions
Cars that collide into the rear of other cars will spin out, a technique sometimes used intentionally by drivers to slow down opponents.
RACE COURSES
Courses in Redline: F-1 Racer are based on actual Grand Prix circuits, featuring specific IFORA racing tips, along with two optional courses for testing and practice.
USA Grand Prix
A 6,235 km optional course with many turns and high-speed straightaways, ideal for training rookies, testing machine set-ups, and racing against Aguri.
Oval Course
A simple 2,025 km optional course ideal for testing a car's top speed and cornering ability, recommended with a Type 8 R. Wing and Type 2 Chassis.
PASSWORD ENTRY
After a Championship Mode race, a password is provided on screen which can be entered later via the CONTINUE option to resume your campaign.
GEAR RATIO
Understanding transmission and engine characteristics, such as 4MT, 7MT, and 6AT configurations, helps drivers find the perfect combination for the best possible times.
