What it does
The optimizer brute-forces all 1.4 million legal combinations of 5 drivers and 2 constructors that fit your budget, scores each with our machine-learning predictions, and ranks the best lineups.
How to use it
- Set your budget and pick a strategy: Max Points, Max Value, Budget Builder or Balanced.
- Left-click any driver or constructor to lock them in; right-click to exclude them.
- Select a chip (3x Boost, Limitless, etc.) and the optimizer builds the team that makes the most of it.
Why Balanced is the default
Balanced averages the deterministic finishing-order projection with the risk-adjusted Monte Carlo mean. It keeps genuine upside visible without letting DNF risk, weather uncertainty or one optimistic scenario dominate the team recommendation. You can switch to Projected or Risk-Adjusted inside the live tool.
Why the best lineup changes
Practice pace, weather, qualifying position, DNF risk and fantasy prices can all move the optimum. The snapshot above updates with the current prediction export; rerun the live optimizer near the lock deadline for the latest team and your exact budget.
