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.

Important – just because some parts and drivers are boosted doesn’t mean they are really getting better than others for the event in general, often they do that to parts/drivers that are so bad that the boost just makes them okay-ish and lure you a little into upgrading them. For that reason you might not see them in many recommended setups below but we absolutely did account their boosts in!
