JUNIOR CLASS ▽ (Series 1-3)
Qualifying Round Strategy
🇮🇹 Monza 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 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
🇦🇹 Spielberg 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
The longest race here and many fall for the strateg to attempt this with hard tires but the good thing here is that you will be able to rock a soft tire for 3 laps which gives some room to wiggle
🇪🇸 Barcelona 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: Equinox
- Engine: Mach I
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
There is not much you can do here in rain with the low Tyre Management that your drivers naturally have. A 2-stop it is.

- Rear Wing: Motion
- Front Wing: The Dash
- Suspension: Equinox
- Engine: Mach I
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.

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

And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
Do not send in both drivers on only soft tires or stacking while pitting will push you back. One driver should do the 3 laps each on softs while the other one push early on and then switch to 4 laps on medium. With this strategy you can also adapt quickly in case you have a safety car

It’s push time for your first driver to overtake like crazy and give those softs hell early on. Then do 4 laps on the softs. The other driver goes reverse with taking it easier to last the 4 laps on softs twice and then push at the end with softs

- Gearbox: The Beast
- Rear Wing: The Valkyrie
- Front Wing: Edgecutter
- Suspension: Fluxspring
- Engine: Chaos Core
And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
The 1-stop is the best strategy here. The 2-stop works in lower classes but looses too much time here. Easy without much hustle so don’t get super creative here and go straight for this strategy and if the safety car comes in, you can always replace the medium tires with soft tires and the hard tires with medium tires

And for the drivers:
And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
For pure risk management you do want to have one driver on the soft tires on a 2-stop strategy, pushing early on and the other one, ideally the one with a Tyre management above 75, to use the mediums for a 1-stop. This way no matter what happens you have at least one driver high up there as things can be quite random on this track

And this is the pit stop strategy and tires you should use
Absolutely go for the 1-stop here since your drivers pretty much all can handle it with their Tyre Management and you will get points. If your drivers stack, so be it.
