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.

🇧🇷 Sao Paulo Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: The Descent
- Gearbox: Beat
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Vortex
- Suspension: The Arc
- Engine: Mach II
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
You actually don’t want to risk a 333 strategy on both your driver since chances are high they will stack up in pit. So your driver with the better offensive stats should go with 3 times soft for 3 laps each and push early on and then manage to not run out of tires. The second driver also push like crazy early on and goes to the medium tires later. Best startegy here to consistently get into the points well.
