Fantasy F1 is a game in which the participants assemble a collection of real life Formula One drivers and score points based on those drivers' actual statistical performance during the F1 season.
The idea for this game arose out of the success of Fantasy football and was certainly being played by the mid-1990s. Fantasy F1 competitions have been run by various newspapers and the motorsports magazine Autosport amongst others, and is available from a number of internet web sites, although the quality of such offerings varies.
There are actually at least two major variations on this game - one which consists of only drivers, and one which consists of building a virtual team of drivers, chassis, engine and (if applicable) tyres.

Famous quotes containing the word fantasy:
“Fantasy is a product of thought, Imagination of sensibility. If the thinking, discursive mind turns to speculation, the result is Fantasy; if, however, the sensitive, intuitive mind turns to speculation, the result is Imagination. Fantasy may be visionary, but it is cold and logical. Imagination is sensuous and instinctive. Both have form, but the form of Fantasy is analogous to Exposition, that of Imagination to Narrative.”
—Sir Herbert Read (1893–1968)
