Empire of the Colonies Fantasy F1 League - Est. 2005
"Twenty years of questionable decisions and we're still going"
Your £75 Million. Your Team. Your Glory.
Welcome to the 2026 Fantasy F1 League, where everything you thought you knew about Formula 1 just went out the window. With the biggest regulation changes in F1 history hitting the grid, nobody knows who'll be fast and who'll be fighting for scraps.
You've got £75 million to build your team across Elite, Premium, and Value tiers. Choose wisely—new engines, active aerodynamics, and six different manufacturers mean chaos is guaranteed. The backmarkers could be on pole. The champions could be nowhere.
This isn't just fantasy racing. This is strategy, risk, and the chance to absolutely rinse the competition when your bargain pick outscores their overpriced has-been.
Build your team. Own the bragging rights. Let's go racing.
BY THE NUMBERS
- 20 years of racing
- 400+ races scored
- 1000+ driver trades
- Countless bad decisions
- Still somehow going strong
Hall of Fame
2025 Team Marauders, Mark. Order finally restored.
2024 Team Bennieton, Jim. This is still being handled by lawyers.
2021-2023 “The years many of us forgot we were playing…”
2021 “We’ve agreed to never speak of this again”
2011-2020: Epic battle years between some Scottish Team and the valiant and noble Team Marauders
2000-2010: “The Founding Years. Back when we used Excel and trusted each other's math"
HOW IT WORKS:
1. You get £75 million to build your team
2. Pick drivers across 4 tiers (Elite/Premium/Mid/Budget)
3. All your drivers score points every race
4. Monaco = 50% bonus points for everyone
5. Bragging rights = priceless
