Lacorsa Grand Prix Racing Board Game + Free Gift

It’s a quick to play fun game that I think actually has gotten my wife into F1 as she now realizes there’s strategy other than just going around the track. I’d suggest this to any racing fan.

Lacorsa is a very easy to play racing game. If you can play blackjack, you can play Lacorsa. It works perfectly well at two players racing two cars each, which is what I usually play with my twelve year old son who loves racing. In my opinion the game is best between 3-6 players racing two cars each or working together as two car teams with 6 cars on track. It almost becomes like a game of poker where you try to understand your opponent and bluff them to get rid of their good cards too early, or go for it and extend out to a big lead.

Races are very fast so if you get a bad hand, the race will be over quickly and hopefully you’ll get a better hand in the next race. You get points based on how you do in the race, and add them up over a 7 race championship season.

I have the expansion so it is possible to play with up to 12 cars, but I’ve never played with more than 6. The expansion also adds different track cards with a unique rule to them. This can change your strategy so I really enjoy using them over a seven race season. I also like the pitstop rules which can help a bit if you get a bad hand. On the other hand, I’m not a fan of the incident charts, they feel too punishing with too high of a chance of a car crashing out so we don’t play with those.

Overall it’s a great, simple casual game you can play with a wide variety of people even if they don’t watch racing.

Quick to pickup and fun to play

This takes me back to my favorite era of F1!! Thanks for bringing back the drivers, cars and colors onto the tabletop with such a great game.

This game is easy to understand and fun to play.

Very slick and enjoyable games! Just 2 of us to start but adding more soon. Lots of room for house rules also! I can see this as a weekly game and soon will get some seasons going! Looking to add some more cars also!

My wife and I are big F1 fans, and this game has become a fun addition to our game nights. Setup is quick and easy, and the rules are pretty straightforward — it took us a full game to really get the hang of it, but after that first play it moves quickly.

Nice mix of card play and board strategy that keeps things interesting without being overwhelming, and the little car figures are a great touch — they really add to the fun.

The one thing to note: at 2 players, each person manages two cars instead of one, which adds a bit of a learning curve. But once you get the hang of juggling both, it actually opens up some nice strategic depth — you're thinking a move ahead for two cars instead of one.

We're already looking forward to more races and plan to pick up the expansion soon. Recommended for any racing or F1 fans looking for a game night option!

This is a great game that takes minutes to learn. My son is a huge F1 fan so I bought it for us to try. Within minutes, we were already running the first race of our first championship season. You do not have to be a race car fan to enjoy this game.

We introduced LACORSA into our family game night after getting interested in F1 racing. The rules are easy to learn and games are fairly quick and exciting. It comes in compact packing for easy storage. We are looking forward to racing a complete season!!

This game has already become an instant classic with my family. I’m the only F1 fan in my family, but they decided to give this a try, and my family already said they can’t wait for the next session!

Just went through a solo session to learn the game and it's incredibly easy to pick up. Pace is fast, strategies will always change, and there's still the random element that can change the outcome instantly. I was so impressed, I immediately ordered the main expansion along with a couple extra car sets! The added rules opens up whole new strategies. Can't wait to try them!

Recently discovered LACORSA from a guy when we were having a conversation about Speed Circuit and the custom tracks he had created. After sending me those tracks, I looked into LACORSA and acquired this game.

This game is awesome and I'm having a blast. I've only put a spin on my own rules for solitary racing so far. It's really amusing how your mind cultivates the story of the race with how the cards and positionings play out. I'm looking forward to bringing my dad into the game and having many hours of battles soon.

I also am not certain if this is intentional or not, but it looks like you can figure out a way to utilize the cards to forego the track and mini figures, which would make opportunities for playing while traveling as easy as carrying a deck of cards. You could use a random number generator on your phone for the die. Awesome!

After years of playing Speed Circuit to live my F1 fantasies, I finally stopped. The races were too long and the set up was too complex. I tried Heat and love the concept, but it falls down for the same reasons. I was looking for an alternative and found LACORSA.
LACORSA is exactly what I was looking for - a racing game with a simple set up that uses cars' relative positions (instead of moving around a track) to determine success. There's enough tactical decision making and randomness to make it fun.
I LOVE the historical F1 seasons from a golden era of the sport. It's easy to re-play the seasons with the expansions and drivers guides. I look forward to years of fun!

I have played this with several friends. The art and looks of the game are slick. It is an easy game to teach new folks and the playability is awesome. The strategy options within a game really make you think about when to push and when to hold back. Highly recommend.

I got this for my sister as a gift since we bond over F1 and it was such a great find! Cannot wait to get some expansions so we can really widen the field!

My family is a huge F1 family. We love getting around the table and playing a few rounds. Being able to get the expansions for everyone’s teams is really awesome as well!

I purchased the game as a gift for my son and grandsons. They opened it on Thanksgiving and LOVE IT!! The boys (11 and 9 years old) were able to learn and play with their parents. Can't wait to join them at Christmas!

We finally got to play on Thanksgiving. Everyone had a good time. Who's challenging who? "Oh it's on" was said more than once.

Received my copy this past week and love the look and feel of the cards and game pieces. The gamplay itself is simple to pick up and am looking forward to playing this with my F1 enthusiast friends.

I love that this game is easy to learn and has strategy that keeps it engaging. The race series has kept my very competitive family excited to race again with a rotation of who comes out on top and some surprise end of season results!

Lacorsa is a simple but fun game! It scratches the itch for both board game and F1 fans alike!

I was looking for an F1-themed game that didn't take up too much time as a way to complement a few hours of Heat, and I have to say La Corsa delivers that in spades. Not only have I found it great for when you have 2 or 3 other people and maybe 30-40 minutes to play, but it's also been great running 7-8 people, each racing their own car, or when you have a 2-3 hour block to maybe run 4-5 races as a championship season.

I think the goal would be to be able to run a full 7 race session with 8 people on 4 teams. I would love to see the hijinks that would ensue from the wonderful blend of competitive and co-operative impulses in that scenario.

Maybe someday. But I'm thankful that Lacorsa is so flexible, yet enjoyable, to allow for such a variety of set-ups and challenges.

The mechanics of the game are based on the classic card game War, so it’s easy to get started and understand the basics of how to play. But winning Lacorsa is not reliant solely on luck. Incorporating motor racing elements like qualifying, track position, and passing. The racers have to choose the right time to make their move - too early and you risk fading late in the race, wait too long and the leaders may have extended their lead. The wooden track is elegant, top quality. The beautiful racing car pieces evoke a fun classical era. Expansion packs add more cars and cards for additional players and optional rules add more racing elements for those that want to be fully immersed in the racing theme. Lacorsa is just as fun with three players as it is with six player. The expansion allows up to twelve players. Flexible game play allows for fun, quick, 20 minute races and in-depth “seasons” engaging players for hours.

I received this amazing game and immediately played with my family to include my 12 year old son and my 8-year-old daughter. The game mechanics is simple and engaging and it brought so much fun to our family's table. It was fun to incorporate true F1 drivers into the mix as my son played as Landon Norris and Lewis Hamilton. In true fashion Lewis Hamilton won the driver's championship. We can't wait to buy more expansions.

We just got this game and love it! My 10, 8, and 6 year old play with us and have a blast. We found that they love to give silly names to their drivers and teams for the championship and we announce the game play like it is a TV broadcast with driver names called out for each pass attempt. The gameplay is quick enough to keep their attention and easy for them to follow. Great addition to family board game night!

Deceptively strategic, fun to play and beautiful to look at. I can play with my family who care little for F1, or I can play with friends who geek out about all things F1. It was so good I had to buy the 1962 expansion set right away.

The track cards, incidents, and driver/car attributes really bring the game to the next level. I've seen other games use a similar mechanic, but none with the class that Lacorsa brings to the table.

I recently bought the Lacorsa Grand Prix Board Game as a gift for my son, who is a big F1 racing fan. The directions were easy to pick up and we liked that there was both luck and strategy involved.
Included in our purchase was a free gift of the 1961 Racecar Set, which included information on expansion features. I knew we would enjoy that, so I ordered the Expansion Pack. It did NOT disappoint! The new features like pit stops (BOX BOX) and incidents added more depth and fun to an already fun game.
In short, the Lacorsa Racing Game and Expansion Pack are an instant family favorite that everyone, racing fans or not, will enjoy; and maybe even pick up a little racing knowledge at the same time.

I admire the craftsmanship of the pieces, as well as the artwork on the cards. Mostly I enjoy the simple play that provides for quick games and replay-ability.
The game system makes it very easy to introduce to new players and immediately play competitive games.
