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!

🇭🇺 Hungaroring 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

Great track here to send both drivers on different startegies with different tires to prevent any stacking in the pit lane. Your more aggressive driver should be the one that starts on soft tires to push

🇧🇷 Sao Paulo 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

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 harder tires later. Best startegy here to consistently get into the points well

🇧🇭 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

---

🇧🇪 Spa 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

Really boring and annoying since your tires won’t last anything here and you actually need a 2-stop strategy unless you use a booster that gives a lot of Tyre Menegement (I recommend it!) that let you do a 1-stop strategy with 3 laps on hard tires.

---

🇬🇧 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 nothing you can do there since it’s raining and the wet tires will not last 4 laps with the possible drivers you have. 2-stop strategy it is (inverted so your drivers don’t stack pitting)

---

🇦🇺 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

🇦🇪 Abu Dhabi 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

Long race that is rought on the tires and impossible slow on hard tires so don#t do any 1-stop stuff here that will make you a lot slower and reverse soft and medium tires on your drivers as shown above and you will do well here as you can push the power unit and overtake well and have enough pace to do so instead of dead-slow cruising on hard tires

🇭🇺 Hungaroring 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

For the last race use the same strategy as for the opening race to finish well in the points.
