Start a Grand Prix career: qualify for pole, pick your tyres, nail your pit stops and race through rain and night to win the championship.

Go from rookie to champion. Pole to Flag is a single-player Grand Prix career in your browser.

Qualify

Every car is on track at once. Leave the garage when you choose, pick your tyres and set a lap that puts you at the front of the grid.

Race

Wheel-to-wheel racing against a full field on six circuits, from a green country track to a street circuit by the sea and a city race under the lights at night.

Strategy

Soft, medium, hard, intermediate and wet tyres, fuel mix, and a pit call you make yourself. Drive into the pit lane, stop on your marks, and your crew does the rest. Every stop counts.

Weather

Rain can arrive mid-race and the track gets wet. Stay out on dry tyres or box for inters: your call.

Earn Full Control

Your first click is a race, and your coach Ray shows you everything as it happens. Start in Rookie, where the car and the crew help you, and unlock Racer, Club, Pro and finally Full Control with your results. Stewards, yellow flags and track limits keep the racing clean.

Win It All

Score points across the season, negotiate your contract with better teams (signing bonus, salary, win bonus) and lift the trophy on the podium.

Fictional teams, drivers and circuits.
