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!

🇦🇹 Spielberg Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: Supernova
• Gearbox: Slickshift
• Rear Wing: Gale Force
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Curver 2-5
• Engine: Spark-E

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

The longest race here and many fall for the strateg to attempt this with hard tires but the good thing here is that you will be able to rock a soft tire for 3 laps which gives some room to wiggle

🇸🇦 Jeddah Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: Supernova
• Gearbox: Slickshift
• Rear Wing: Gale Force
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Curver 2-5
• Engine: Spark-E

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

Super hard on the tires and with the long straight passages softer tires don’t have that much advantage since softer tires only provide overtaking in the turns advantage. 2-stop here with hard and medium tires and you can push and won’t be afraid your run out of grip

🇬🇧 Silverstone Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: Supernova
• Gearbox: Slickshift
• Rear Wing: Gale Force
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Curver 2-5
• Engine: Spark-E

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

There is literally nothing you can do here with how limited your tires last you have to do the 2-stop startegy with the medium and soft tires

---

🇪🇸 Barcelona Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: The Stabiliser
• Gearbox: Beat
• Rear Wing: Gale Force
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Curver 2-5
• Engine: Mach I

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

There is not much you can do here in rain with the low Tyre Management that your drivers naturally have. A 2-stop it is.

---

🇮🇹 Imola Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: Pivot
• Gearbox: Slickshift
• Rear Wing: Motion
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Equinox
• Engine: Spark-E

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

Not too much room here to do things honestly. It rains and wet tires only last 3 laps so you have to stack pit stops if you have to but with the retain and push option you can push one driver early on and drag them apart a bit to minimize the damage of the first pit stop break when they pit together

---

🇦🇺 Melbourne Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: Supernova
• Gearbox: Slickshift
• Rear Wing: Gale Force
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Curver 2-5
• Engine: Spark-E

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

This track is working so well on this strategy and always gives big points. One driver on medium tires for 3 laps each and the other push early on softs and later does cruise 4 laps on the hard tires. One of my favorite tracks in this Gran Prix

---

🇦🇿 Baku Setup

The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

• Brakes: Supernova
• Gearbox: Slickshift
• Rear Wing: Gale Force
• Front Wing: Glide
• Suspension: Curver 2-5
• Engine: Spark-E

And for the drivers:

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

Do not even think about a 1-stop strategy here, even with boosters. You need to push in sections that make sense You always do 223 on your first ranked driver and 322 on your second ranked driver. Push with your soft tire driver hard in the first lap to get into a good position early on.

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

And for the last race here use the same strategy as for the first race to finish off strong
