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.
Unlike regular series races where you don’t know the exact track to come, events will let you know exactly what track you’re on so you have to adapt your car/driver setup BEFORE every race for the best results!
🇳🇱 Zandvoort Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: The Stabiliser
- Gearbox: Beat
- Rear Wing: Gale Force
- Front Wing: The Dash
- Suspension: Swish
- Engine: Mach I
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
Perfect here is the reversed strategy with one driver starting on softs and one on mediums and bot have them on a 2-stop strategy. Being able to push here helps a lot since this is such a defense-heavy track where overtaking is not that easy
🇧🇭 Sakhir 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
This track is so tough on tires that playing it slow for the 1-stop is not going to cut it. Use a 1-stop strategy with medium and hard tires and push in the narrow corners for a good position
🇺🇸 Miami Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Supernova
- Gearbox: Hustle
- 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 little room here for alternative strategies and a 2-stop will make you last position so take the hard tires, pit both drivers after 3 laps and normally this works best than creative strategies that will make you last in the points
🇲🇨 Monaco Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: The Stabiliser
- Gearbox: Beat
- Rear Wing: Gale Force
- Front Wing: The Dash
- Suspension: Swish
- Engine: Mach I
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use

🇨🇦 Montreal Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: The Stabiliser
- Gearbox: Beat
- Rear Wing: Gale Force
- Front Wing: The Dash
- Suspension: Swish
- Engine: Mach I
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
The reason for this strategy is that you can’t really do a 1-stop strategy here and you want your first driver with the better position/takeover stats to push on the first set of tires while the second driver that starts behind basically can cruise the first set of tires comfortably for 3 rounds with short pushes to overtake pitting cars. Then you switch it around and let this driver gather as much power as possible to really speed up the last two laps. Many players make the mistake here to do the 1-stop on wet tires but that barely works, you can’t push anywhere and need abooster since your Tyre Management is far too low on top of that
🇲🇽 Mexico City Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Supernova
- Gearbox: Slickshift
- Rear Wing: Motion
- Front Wing: The Dash
- Suspension: Equinox
