The Legends League – A second chance to play F1 Fantasy this season

Missed the start of the season? Is your F1 Fantasy team having a bad first half? This is your chance to join a fresh league built for the second half of the year.

The campaign restarts with the Dutch Grand Prix. Join the all-new Legends League and go wheel-to-wheel with F1 legends Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve, each with their own F1 Fantasy team.

Can you beat the legends?

Think you can out-manage an F1 legend? Now’s your chance. The brand-new Legends League gives new players the perfect opportunity to join F1 Fantasy and existing players a fresh start. Take on teams selected by F1’s legendary drivers, compete for signed merch, and see if your instincts can beat the greats.

With Kimi Antonelli continuing to impress at Mercedes, Lewis Hamilton making his mark at Ferrari and McLaren’s resurgence shaking things up, every team selection counts. Build your squad and show your F1 smarts.

How The Legends League works

The Legends League gives you the chance to go up against Formula 1 icons with a fresh start. The league begins for everyone at the Dutch Grand Prix and runs for the entire second half the season.

Everyone starts equal

Missed the opening races? No problem. The Legends League is a new competition, meaning new players can jump straight into the action by entering a new team while existing players get another shot with one of their existing teams.

Both new F1 Fantasy players and existing players can join the Legends League in the 'League' navigation tab and start equal.

How to play F1 Fantasy?

New to F1 Fantasy? F1 Fantasy is the official, free-to-play fantasy game for Formula 1. With millions signing up from across the globe, it levels up the fun of F1. Suddenly, you’re not just following one driver or team, you’ve got investment across the grid and more reasons to care about every twist, turn and late-session lap.

Here’s how it works:

• You get a $100m cost cap to pick five drivers and two constructors.
• In Legends League you can enter one team via the league tab.
• Usually in F1 Fantasy you create up to three teams… Maybe you want one 'serious' team, one for the fun of the chaos, and one experiment, but it's up to you.
• Once a season starts, you’ll have two free transfers per Grand Prix round for each team, so you can react without overthinking every move.

Your drivers and teams score points based on what happens across the real-life race weekend, so the results, positions gained, and key moments all feed directly into your Fantasy total. Make sure to keep a close eye on rest of the season to stay ahead.

Create your own rivalries
