2nd Driver Nationalities

The option to change your second driver's nationality has been added to the game. Read more...

Second drivers have been available to superlicense managers for a while now, but now you will be able to change the new driver's nationality as well.

KEY CHARACTERISTICS

- Manager must have at least one active driver from his own country.

- If manager does not have a driver from his own country (usually after driver retirement) it is mandatory to have a driver from manager's country.

- Different nationality always costs coins.

HOW COST IS CALCULATED

The MRC team has wanted to avoid several managers creating drivers from a weird country with no motorsport tradition or real in-game players. To this end, a system has been created:

- Base price for any different nationality is 100 coins

- The less populated a country is, the more expensive it is. For example, France adds 0 coins to the base 100, but Pitcairn Islands adds 300 coins to the base 100.

- The less active managers a country has in the last season, the more expensive it is. Same example, France adds 0, Pitcairn adds 300 coins.

So that would mean that if a manager from Spain wants a French driver, it'll cost 100 coins. But if the Spanish manager wants to create a Pitcairn driver, it'll cost 700 coins.

Moreover, to prevent managers from another nation to "attack" other countries, price goes up 100 coins if 10 managers create drivers from one country, and 200 if 20 managers do. This way, if 10 Spanish managers wanted to create French drivers, the 11th manager would pay 200 coins. And if 20 Spanish managers wanted to create French drivers, the 21st manager would pay 400 coins.

This is a small thing but it may help with managers that have two or more nationalities, or even two countries might help each other...
