Play F-1 Race Online
You weave through tight corners in pixel-perfect F1 cars, feeling the speed as the track rushes at you—one mistake and you're eating barriers. Four-player link cable races turn into pure, glorious chaos.
F-1 Race came out for the Game Boy in 1990, developed and published by Nintendo. It was one of the earlier racing games on the handheld, arriving at a time when portable gaming was still mostly about simple, quick sessions. The game offered a surprisingly detailed take on Formula 1 racing, condensed into that small green screen.
You control a single F1 car from a top-down perspective, racing against three computer opponents on twisting tracks. The main goal is straightforward: finish first. The signature mechanics include managing your car's gear shifts to maintain optimal speed and navigating tight, narrow tracks that punish even slight miscalculations. The pacing is fast, and the difficulty is unforgiving; bumping walls or other cars slows you down significantly, making clean driving essential. It feels tense and demanding, requiring total focus to shave seconds off each lap.
