JUNIOR CLASS ▽ (Series 1-3)
Qualifying Round Strategy
🇺🇸 Austin 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
Using a 1-stop here for both drivers is risky and can result in both eggs in one basket getting you the doble victory or fail badly since Austin can be random sometimes. Rather have one driver push on softs on the 2-stop strategy and the other one with hard tires on the 1-stop strategy and one of them will get a top position for a good result all the time instead of risking it all. You can risk more on the final day, though
🇪🇸 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.
🇧🇷 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: Equinox
- 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

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
🇪🇸 Barcelona Setup

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

5 laps on wet tires here is an eternity without pushing at all so rather take the inverted 2-stop strategy here and you will and points a lot more consistently

There is not much you can do here other than a 1-stop with medium tires. Everything else will fall behind or is super risky/depending on the situation.
