Formula One: Built to Win is a 1990 racing video game for the Nintendo Entertainment System developed by Winky Soft and published by SETA Corporation.

It was one of the first racing games to feature a career mode, multiple vehicles, and an opportunity for the player to increase their car's performance in the game through car tuning, which were unique elements for a racer from the NES era and a genre only really revisited during the fifth generation of game consoles where games such as Gran Turismo became popular.

Races begin as single-lap events, but become double-lap events as the player begins racing against more experienced competitors in places like Las Vegas, Nevada, and Hawaii. With gameplay similar to Rad Racer and Pole Position, the driver runs towards the bottom of the screen.

The names of the opponents are chosen partly at random; they can also vary according to the level of classification of the course and the type of vehicle used. As in Rad Racer, the player can supercharge an automobile to go up to 255 miles per hour or 410 kilometers per hour.
