Here's our review of retro-style racing management game Golden Lap.
A largely straightforward motorsport management game with a distinct visual style, Golden Lap manages to offer tactical race simulation with off-the-track drama in a minimalist package. It may not satisfy hardcore petrolheads, but for slightly more relaxed race enjoyers, it’s a fine sim experience.

By cutting out the wider micromanagement, Golden Lap delivers a more casual racing management sim that's held my interest. Building a team feels straightforward yet strategic. There's an appealing art style and a real sense of risk-taking I've not seen before in this genre. Taking victory with the seventh-place team after a hard-fought qualifying felt particularly lovely. Though I couldn't quite muster up the performance to win the season, seeing my main driver come second overall in the season feels great. Come full release, Golden Lap could be a podium contender.
