I am trying to get suppliers on board, but basically have no admin points, and with my additional hourly admin points, it will take about a year to get to a point where I can sign any supplier?

Well the base amount is 3. Then you should get some extra points for your HQ and discipline rating. How many are you getting now per hour?

You also only need to get to 30% progress with suppliers to sign a basic deal. Also, if you are demanding too low a price for the parts, it will take more points than if you meet them halfway. What are you trying to negotiate a deal for?

Trying to sign any suppliers - they want 200+ admin points to take it to the next level (let alone level 3), but I only have about 150 admin points . . .

Finally sorted the suppliers by paying way over the baseline amounts - now have no admin points to sign any drivers!

I would say that you will discover that 200 is good for a supplier negotiation stage. I tend to negotiate around 300-400. At 200 I would dare say you would pay more than average. I only get around 4.3 points per hour myself. The idea of points is to help those players that cannot be online so much. Think of it as a time management simulation. It should take the best part of a week to negotiate a supplier deal. That is I think normal

As for drivers.. yes it will take time… if you are among the first to bid for a driver, a week is normal between bidding and finalizing negotiations.

Thanks for the informative answers.
I actually started playing this game years ago and recently came back.
It just seems a bit backwards if a new player cannot really do any form of driving/racing for at least a week - surely most people would lose interest pretty quickly?

like most of manager games and browser game it is slow especially in the beginning, try to not waste your points.

invest this initial time to understand the game: after you build your first cars do some test, collect and analize data, improve your understanding in something and repeat. this is a long term game.

i like to think to this game as a beta version, it has some bugs, it needs some balancement, but it has great potential and first of all it is entertaining if you like to build a team from the scratch and improving it.

imho even on this state it already has the basis to be the most complex f1 manager game ever created even compared to games with a big budget.

i wish Frank will start to fix and upgrade it frequently
