Qualifying Round Strategy
🇦🇿 Baku Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Flow 1K
- Gearbox: The Beast
- Rear Wing: The Valkyrie
- Front Wing: The Sabre
- Suspension: Quantum
- Engine: Behemoth
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
You really should use a 1-stop here with one driver pushing early on soft tires for 3 laps and then cruising on mediums to the end and the other one starting on hard tires. If a driver has Tyre Management 70 or lower, don’t try any other funky stops strategy but switch the mediums for hard tires, that will last 4 laps!
🇸🇦 Jeddah Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Flow 1K
- Gearbox: The Beast
- Rear Wing: The Valkyrie
- Front Wing: The Sabre
- Suspension: Quantum
- Engine: Behemoth
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
The driver with the higher Tyre Management goes for the 1-stop here on 4 laps while the other one goes wild on soft tires. Give the one with the soft tires some Power Unit booster to make sure he can push
🇺🇸 Las Vegas Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Flow 1K
- Gearbox: The Beast
- Rear Wing: The Valkyrie
- Front Wing: The Sabre
- Suspension: Quantum
- Engine: Behemoth
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
There is nothing else here that you can do other than making a 1-stop with the wet tires. If your drivers tack in the pit stop lane, so be it.
🇨🇳 Shanghai Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Rumble
- Gearbox: The Dynamo
- Rear Wing: Aero Blade
- Front Wing: Curier

🇧🇷 Sao Paulo Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Boombox
- Gearbox: Metronome
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Flex XL
- Suspension: Gyro
- Engine: Mach III
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
This is one of the more boring races since you will do the inverted 1-stop with medium and soft tires so there is not much timing and pushing. But, and I can’t stress that enough, it is by far the most reliable strategy to use here. If your drivers can’t make the 87+ Tyre Management with booster, you need to go with medium and hard tires here!
