This is 1950 and the start of the F1 World Drivers Championship as we know it today. With the exception of the Indianapolis 500 (no European driver attended), the races were held mainly in Europe.

Please note: This is not an actual representation of the year but more of a best-effort. Finding the right cars, tracks and skins has proven very difficult. As such you may wish to swap some of the tracks for your favourites.

Background (this is a work in progress)

During the lockdown I’ve cobbled together a number of F1 decades (3-4 years from each) to make up a Career mode and a User Championship mode to celebrate the 70 Years of Formula 0ne from 1950-2020 - The years (TBC) are 1950s (1950/54/58), 60’s (1960/63/67/69), 70’s (1971/75/79), 80’s (1982/86/88), 90’s (1991/94/98), 00’s (2000/05/09), 10’s (2013/17) and 2020

My aim, if there is enough interest, is to release them over the coming weeks

Thanks to the AC modding community there is a plethora of cars, skins and track mods that allow this to happen. As with all modding some are better than others as well as being more recent. After all, it is Assetto Corsa’s 6th Year and it is still going strong!

There will be some years that are completely freemium but others that I will class as premium because they require one or two paid mods to complete. Knowing the AC Community most of us have the mods already

Where possible I’ll point you in the direction of an alternative free option on RaceDepartment or within the existing original Assetto Corsa content and DLC packs.

To stay within the rules of RaceDepartment I cannot direct link to files outside of the download section. (Please don't ask - Thanks)

The car is an adaptation of the Alfa Romeo ‘Alfetta’1950 by Legion and can be found using a search with your favourite ‘Search engine’ including the phrase ‘Assetto Corsa mods and the name of the Modder.

Tracks from 1950/60/70’s can also be found with the same search along with the TARNHOERNER group who do a fantastic collection of tracks and cars from the early era of F1.

Cloning and amending any Assetto Corsa Custom Championship using Content Manager:

I recommend using 'Content Manager' - all the parameters are adjustable (See included screenshots using content manager)

Content Manger can be downloaded for free (However, I do recommend paying for the full version to support its development and to get the full potential) here: https://assettocorsa.club/content-manager.html

I also use the following MODS for enhanced immersion

SOl v1.5/6: https://www.racedepartment.com/downloads/sol.24914/

Custom Shaders patch v1.52 or higher
