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, 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!
🇮🇹 Imola Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Rumble

And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
Since you have enough tyre management here tyour driver with the LOWER Tyre Management stat should take the 3 soft tires for 3 laps each and push. The second driver should have tyre management above 70 and that means you can let him cruise on a 1-stop with 4M and then 5H. If you can’t do that with your drivers since none of them has a Tyre Management above 70, send them both in on 3S3S3S
