Still pause in terms of real Grand Prix events so the devs continue to come up with exotic events in F1 Clash and this week we have Alex Albon and Thailand as cover theme (although I am not sure why those have to start off in Monza) and, as always, we have the full guide here for you to make sure you finish well in the points

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!
🇮🇹 Monza Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Supernova
- Gearbox: Fury
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Vortex
- 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 two approaches here. You can send in both drivers on medium tires and hope that there won’t be much stacking. Totally fine if you drivers qualify very differently. I, however, recommend that one driver starts on soft tires and pushes early and then uses the hard tires in the last stint. This prevents stacking and unless there is something really unfortunate happening this is a better startegy to have one driver well in the points for sure. Also, if your driver or booster will have high Tyre Mangement, you can also attempt the 2-stop on the driver with the medium tires on soft tires which will give a good extra boost.
🇧🇷 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

🇺🇸 Austin 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
Make sure both your drivers have Tyre Management above 57 and you can do a good 1-stop strategy with them. If the Tire Management is below you need to do the 1-stop on hard tires but they are a lot slower so take a booster if you need to
🇨🇳 Shanghai Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Supernova
- Gearbox: Slickshift
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Vortex
- Suspension: Equinox
- Engine: The Reactor

🇬🇧 Silverstone Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Supernova
- Gearbox: Fury
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Vortex
- 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: Fury
- Rear Wing: X-Hale

🇧🇪 Spa Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:
- Brakes: Supernova
- Gearbox: Slickshift
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Vortex
- Suspension: Equinox
- Engine: The Reactor
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
The only working and prooven strategy here is the 1-stop on medium tires. Don’t get funky, you want the points and not beat your opponent so simply use the 1-stop, try letting one driver push away from the other early on to have minimal stacking and finish the race in good points
🇮🇹 Monza Setup
The ideal car setup for this race in the event is:

- Gearbox: Fury
- Rear Wing: X-Hale
- Front Wing: Vortex
- Suspension: Curver 2-5

And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
And for the last race use the exact same strategy for your pit stops that you used in the first race to finish well in the points.
