The initial games did not feature any licensing, with F1 Circus Special - Pole to Win and Super F1 Circus featuring only Team Lotus license, as Nichibutsu was a sponsor of the team at the time; Super F1 Circus Limited was the first in the series with a full FIA/FOCA license, but the last two games in the series, Super F1 Circus Gaiden and Formula Circus, featured completely fictional teams.
