About this game
Description
Supplied by the Steam store
You run the team. Develop the car, manage the people and call both drivers’ races from the pit wall.
Ultimate Racing Simulator 1 is a motorsport management simulation with a persistent multi-season career. Begin with ten constructors and a sixteen-round calendar drawn from a catalogue of forty-one circuits.
Call the race from the pit wall
Follow both cars through seven race channels: Live, Pit Wall, Strategy, Timing, Track, Race Control and Car Status.
Plan tyre compounds, stints and pit stops, then adjust your strategy as conditions change. Make pace calls, use overtaking boost and issue team orders. Decide when to push, conserve or bring a car in.
Weigh the time lost through damage against the cost of a repair stop and the laps remaining.
A race shaped by your decisions
Tyres, fuel, car performance, damage, weather and traffic affect how the race unfolds. Racing lines and road position influence corner speed and lap time. Rain changes grip and shifts the preferred line away from the dry groove.
Safety cars regroup the field according to the active regulations, while slowing or damaged cars create new obstacles and decisions.
Rival cars carry wear and damage between weekend sessions, and their teams pay for component replacements.
Watch it, or read it
Watch the race in 3D with an automatic director, or choose chase, onboard, helicopter and TV cameras. Follow the action on the 2D map while managing your race strategy.
Review recent recorded races, scrub through incident-marked timelines and consult the race-control log.
Run the whole team
Manage budgets, facilities, staff, driver contracts and sponsors. Develop the current car and design next season’s challenger around changing regulations.
Track twenty-one components per car, monitor their condition and budget for replacements. Choose suppliers and adapt as engine formulas and manufacturer commitments change.
Understand what happened
An optional first-weekend guide helps you learn the workflow, with contextual Help available throughout the game.
Car Status explains factors affecting pace and tyre wear, finance records explain cash movements, and post-race engineering debriefs help you decide what to consider next.

This update brings the in-game Help and player guide up to date with the features added since v1.0, with clearer explanations of team management, race weekends and the current controls.

This update gives drivers and key staff their own remembered opinions about your team, and adds driver-contract correspondence to the team inbox. Personal opinions that develop over time Drivers, your reserve and named staff now keep separate opinions about: Management - their outlook on team leadership. The car - its competitiveness against their expectations. Facilities - team facilities and working conditions. The Team Mindset screen shows recorded percentages, the Concerned, Content and Positive assessments, and the season and week of the latest review. Opinions are saved with your career and reviewed each career week. They change gradually as circumstances change, giving your people a more consistent outlook over time. These personal opinions are informational and do not add extra performance or negotiation penalties. Driver-contract correspondence in your inbox Receive private r...

URS1 v1.0.3 — Save Compatibility Improvements This update improves how URS1 records and checks save-format information, helping make compatibility checks more reliable for future updates. What’s changed New and re-saved careers now store explicit save-format markers. Added validation for incomplete, invalid or unsupported future save-format information. Existing backup recovery remains available when a primary save cannot be loaded. Older saves without the new markers remain supported. Testing and compatibility The update passed all 650 automated regression tests, followed by packaged migration and gameplay smoke tests across 24 separate game launches. These included older careers, v1.0.2 saves and repeated reloads with exact career-data comparisons. You do not need to start a new career. The career-data format remains unchanged. Thank you for your continued feedback and support!

URS1 is updated to v1.0, with final improvements to weekly planning advice and clearer reporting of PR benefits. Mechanical reliability concerns now point players toward component checks, repairs, replacements and reliability development. Rest Drivers remains the recommendation for tired drivers. When driver fatigue and car reliability both need attention, the advice explains each separately. PR descriptions and completion messages now accurately identify available improvements to sponsor satisfaction, trust and campaign confidence. When the seasonal PR improvement limit is reached, or all applicable benefits are already at their maximum, the game clearly explains that PR earns cash only. Weekly commercial advice no longer recommends PR to increase campaign confidence when that benefit is unavailable. The game version and main-menu branding now identify URS1 as v1.0. PR payments, bene...

Read full update on Steam ↗So what's been happening since the last update...
Due to lack of feedback (which is fine!) I've had to do a lot of testing in my own time, plus, keep developing parts of the game that needed extra work. Running through many seasons and having to check logs at the same time, re-test, check logs etc. Once that's been achieved, my focus will be on the editing tools and mod option allowing a player to modifying whatever they want in the game. The modding community to such a game will be crucial. In addition, there has been nearly 200,000 changes to the code recently, below is just an example of what has had to be resolved. The objective here is to stabilize the game so players can go through an entire career. More to come...navigation cancels old confirmations.** UI 2.0 mouse navigation, the Classic rail, keyboard cycling and page shortcuts share the transition that clears pending R&D, Contracts, Facilities, WMRC and Suppliers actions.

Read full update on Steam ↗URS1 0.9.8a: a much faster 3D race view
URS1 0.9.8a: a much faster 3D race view A small update with one big change. The 3D race view no longer draws the race twice. Behind the race screens, the game was also drawing the whole race a second time, full-screen, where it could never be seen. Only the race you see is drawn now. What it means for you: a higher and steadier frame rate during sessions with the 3D feed. On our test laptop (RTX 3080 Laptop GPU) a wet 20-car session went from about 40 fps to about 60, and the graphics card now does less than half the work. The gain is largest at high screen resolutions and on modest graphics cards. Nothing looks different. If you have any trouble with the 3D view after this update, the Steam launch option -URS1ViewportWorldRender brings back the previous behaviour. Please tell us if you need it. Your careers load and continue.

URS1 0.9.8: live engine sound, cars that look planted on the road, and Steam Cloud saves Every car on track has its own live engine. You can hear it go up through the gears, brake and change down, and pass you. The cars look planted on the road. The wheels turn properly at speed, and the steering shows through the corners. Smoother racing: the new race car from 0.9.7 now costs the same to draw as the old one. Steam Cloud: your careers now follow you between PCs. Your existing careers load and continue. Live engine sound Every car on track has its own engine sound, made live from its speed and gear: you hear it rev up through the gears, with a short cut on each upshift; it blips as it changes down into a braking zone; it launches off the grid and sits on the limiter in the pit lane. You hear the cars around you: the car you are watching and the nearest five others. Each one gets louder...

URS1 0.9.7: a new race car, scenery at every circuit, deeper telemetry, a mod editor and the Commission's agenda This is the biggest update of Early Access so far. Every car on track is now built from your team's own design, and all 41 circuits have full trackside scenery. The pit wall gains eight new telemetry views, including a review of every pit stop. A Mod editor lets you change the drivers and teams before you start a career. The WMRC Commission now runs its own agenda: formulas, points, the fastest-lap rule and the calendar. A full review of every screen means any action that cannot be undone now asks first. Your existing careers load and continue. A new race car, built from your design Every car in the race, the showroom and the R&D Architecture preview is now built from the team's fitted design.

URS1 0.9.6 — UI 2.0, driver nationalities and a wider grid This update gives the whole game its new look, UI 2.0. Drivers now have a nationality, which affects contracts, home races and sponsors. Race starts are reworked, and teams have new ways to recover when a car programme runs late. The WMRC gets a set of fixes, and the rulebook now matches what the game enforces. Your existing careers load and continue. UI 2.0 is the new look UI 2.0 "Telemetry Neon" is now the default interface across the live race, the race weekend, all of Team HQ and the front end.

This update brings a consistent new look to team management and live sessions, with clearer decisions, a larger weather workspace and direct comparisons between your two drivers. Underneath the presentation, setup choices, driver feedback and the consequences of running a damaged car receive substantial improvements. A new arrival in the paddock Refreshed the start screen with a larger game identity, clearer career actions and one real autosave summary. Reworked team selection around full constructor names, driver line-ups, starting resources and a concise board objective. Rebuilt the Designs tab as a season-by-season chassis archive, with a single specification summary and readable architecture choices. Missing historical architecture is shown as unrecorded.

Read full update on Steam ↗URS1 0.9.4 — every tyre set counts
This update is mostly about the race weekend behaving the way a race weekend should. Every team now runs a finite allocation of tyres through practice, qualifying and the race, and has to decide when to use new rubber and when to save it. Qualifying no longer decides itself in Q1, positions are fought for from segment to segment, and you can go back to any session's results at any point in the weekend. AI engineers now read the track before sending a car out, and react when the weather changes. Team HQ has a new supplier record, the Drivers and Car sections now open inside the main screen, and you can go back to the start of any of your last five race weekends. Your existing careers load and continue. Tyres: a real allocation for every team Every team, yours and every rival's, now runs its weekend tyre allocation in every session. Before, every run out of the garage and every pit stop...
Read full update on Steam ↗URS1 0.9.3 Patch
URS1 — 0.9.3 Bringing The Game Closer to Racing Until this build, a car in the 3D view slid along the racing line with its wheels turning. It was in the right place at the right speed, but it never actually steered. Every car on the model now drives: it turns the wheel, leans on its outside tyres, dips under braking and follows the road over a crest. The same update solves the racing line itself properly — as the fastest way round rather than the shortest — and that turned out to change how the whole race runs, from where pole comes from to how much fuel a race needs. Your existing careers load and continue. The cars drive the road Every car steers. The nose turns in before the car moves across, an overtake is an arc with the front wheels visibly angled, and cars turn in for the corner ahead instead of sliding sideways onto the racing line. The body leans outward through corners, dips...
Read full update on Steam ↗URS1 Latest Patch - 0.8.1
URS1 — every race is its own race now The biggest update since Early Access opened, and it starts with a confession. Until this build, the simulation ran every session off the same random stream — so qualifying handed you the same times session after session, and the same unlucky driver kept picking up the same damage race after race. That is fixed. Alongside it: a safety car that actually bunches the field, a race you can watch back afterwards, a full race control log, and a pit wall that finally speaks up when a car is too broken to be worth running. Your existing careers load and continue. Every session is genuinely different Qualifying, practice and races now run on their own random stream each time. If you have been playing and thought the lap times looked familiar, they were — every session in every career was drawing from one identical sequence. The same fault made one driver l...
