Formule Dé is a fast-paced racing game in which the cars' top speeds are limited by having to end a certain number of turns in each curve of the racetrack. This can be tricky, because although players can regulate their speeds by choosing which gear to be in and each gear allows a certain range of movement, the exact amount is determined randomly. Great fun for a big group. The base game came with: a d20 dice Ten plastic cars (2 blue, 2 red, 2 white, 2 green, 2 yellow, one in each colour with a black heck spoiler) one circuits 1&2 (Monaco, Hockenheim or Silverstone) Rulebook Racing sheets Ten gear markers (2 blue, 2 red, 2 white, 2 green, 2 yellow) This was the first release of a game of the family Formule Dé/Formula Dé/Formula D.
