GridRival - Fantasy Racing

First off, I have definitely changed my rating from a 2 to a 4 since the start of the season. The app used to be incredibly buggy, and although it still is at times, you can definitely tell there have been major improvements as the season progressed. The contract management is a really neat and unique feature that actually works pretty well overall. It certainly adds a more strategic element to the season but the novelty wears off pretty quick because there is a scenario where you actually can have too much money and then you have to make the choice of running without a talent driver or not spending some of your money. The “commissioner” also needs additional ability to set a lineup for someone or the system should have some sort of auto-draft each week to fill lineups. If someone is unable to set their lineup for even a single week, they can be totally screwed for the entire season and it scraps the competitive nature once that has happened. Matchups may work better in larger leagues to give head to head action more attention. There are lots to like about the app overall but make sure you are committed to playing the whole season in order to remain in the hunt. It’s kind of a game of attrition.

I recently decided to start a fantasy league for F1 because I was tired of doing multiple football leagues and I came across GridRival. I’m glad I did! So far the app has been awesome to use and all the guys in the league are really enjoying it! I initially looked at the F1 app for fantasy but after doing both side by side I actually prefer GridRival. Everyone has their own personal preference, but I really like the format, the contracts, point multipliers and a lot more! The app is definitely more simplistic than the F1 app, but that also makes it less confusing too, which I prefer. The instructions are very well laid out and their customer service is second to none! Unfortunately their daily fantasy isn’t available in my state yet, but hopefully that will change in the near future. If you’re looking for a great app to set up a fantasy league than look no further. I can’t recommend it enough and I look forward to using this in the years to come as our league continues to grow.

I’ve been using Grid Rival for two seasons of fantasy F1. They definitely seem determined to improve the quality of the app and experience. A year ago I would not have given it 5 stars, but it has really improved, and being a part of the GridRival discord has been helpful as they are very transparent about what they’re doing behind the scenes. Yes, there are glitches and scoring errors sometimes but they are always working hard to fix them ASAP and restore points, and my buddies and I had a great time with our league this season, which I’m thankful for since F1 itself was pretty boring with max running away with everything.
