This week’s Featured Assets give Bearman and Stroll a boost as well as some parts. With the availability that is not making the driver top everywhere but in JUNIOR and CHAMPION you for sure want to give them cockpit for several races. Please see below the race-by-race recommendations.

Remember, you can change your car/driver setup for each race and you should – this means you will get the ideal setup for each single one to make sure you land the best prices at the end of the final round of the event.
