It’s based on Wordle and like Cardle, but entirely F1 based. It’s also surprisingly tricky.

You start by entering a recent or current driver’s name, and from there you are given the following:

Nationality
Team
Car Number
Driver Age
First year in F1
Number of race wins


A teen obviously is a correct answer. Orange ‘up’ pointing results means ‘higher’, and purple ‘down’ pointing ones means ‘lower’ (think Bruce Forsyth).

You get 6 goes. I’ve been playing it for the past 5 days, and it can be fiendishly difficult. Today’s is a case in point.

As with Cardle, it’d be great to compare results.

Interesting game.

4, because I hadn't quite figured out how the game worked on my 3rd guess and went for something that was obviously wrong when I re-read the rules.

Hmm. If today is anything to go by it needs an obvious clarification of who is included.

Four for me today.

It seems quite clear that it's any driver who's raced since 2014.

My bad. I forgot about a certain race.

Don’t understand this.

With Wordle you have a potential dictionary of about 13,000 five letter words.

With Stewardle all the driver options (F1 since 2014) will have been used up by mid October - or am I missing something ?

Guess we'll worry about that when we get there.

Four again for me.

I think it's important who your first guess is as that will provide your first set of clues.

6 for me yesterday and 5 today. The age one is difficult to work out as drivers that are no longer in F1 could have been 10 years younger when they raced (not a spoiler as he didn't race in the period but Jaime Alguersuari was something like 18/19 when he raced in F1 but is now 34!) so you have to do some maths on their age. I suspect getting it in 3 or less would be mostly luck.

Yep. I’m still learning its quirks too.

Today in 4.

What about soupdle? I can only think of half a dozen or so types of soup, it's going to be finished within a week!
