Abu Dhabi Setup F1 22: Full race setup, Fastest qualifying setup, Best Time Trial setup

Welcome to our F1 22 Abu Dhabi Setup (dry) page!

The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit is one of the most unique in Formula One. Located on Yas Island (near Ikea lol), and it’s known for being the season conclusion, and the infamous 2021 drama. The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix is held at night under floodlights. As a result, it’s important to have a car livery that can stand out under floodlit conditions.

The fastest car setup for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit begins with aero. The new track layout means that downforce is extremely important, so teams will want to get the balance just right. This will help the car to stick to the track and avoid sliding off in the corners. In addition, tire choice is critical. Pirelli typically uses their softest tyre compounds in Abu Dhabi, as they offer good grip in warm conditions. Teams will also want to pay attention to brake cooling, as the long straights can lead to overheating. 

Following these tips should help you get your car setup just right for a fast lap around the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit.

For our setup, we have gone with a lower downforce-based setup on the car, with higher differential settings for good stability. Happy racing!

Abu Dhabi Race Setup

Abu Dhabi is a unique track and as such, requires a unique car setup. The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit has recently removed some of its twists and turns, making it essential to have a car that can handle longer corners. As a result, it is important to choose the right tire compound and to have good tire management. With these considerations in mind, here is the fastest F1-22 car setup for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit:

The Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit is a circuit that consists of 16 turns. The circuit is 5.281 km long and has a lap record of 1:26.103, set by Max Verstappen in 2021.

The best way to set up your car for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit is to use a soft compound tire. This will help to improve grip while driving and will also prevent tires from overheating. In addition, it is important to have good tire management during the race. This means not pushing your tires too hard and making sure to pit for fresh tires when necessary. With these tips in mind, you should be able to set up your car for the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix Circuit and drive your way to victory!

Abu Dhabi Aerodynamics Setup

Front Wing Aero – 18

Rear Wing Aero – 24

For Abu Dhabi, we are going with relatively low aero. The recent track layout changes mean that the track has a higher average speed than in previous years, and lower downforce is needed. considering this and the new aero settings, we recommend 18-24 wing angles for this part of the race setup. 

Transmission details for F1 22 Abu Dhabi Setup

Transmission Setup

Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 69%

Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 53%

Transmission is a critical area of the setup for traction, affecting acceleration, grip, rotation, tyre wear, and drivability. Increasing the On Throttle Differential will make the car more stable on acceleration, however, will increase tyre wear. For the Abu Dhabi setup, we need to use 69%/53%. This will aid rotation in the long corners while keeping the car stable on worn tyres later in the stint. Increasing rear diff will improve straight-line acceleration and stability on corner exits (again, at the end of the stint on worn tyres this may be a challenge), however, will come with a slight cost on wear. This is the part of the setup that we found gets adjusted the most from session to session. Lower is quicker here, so try to avoid increasing these values. 

Suspension Geometry Setup

Front Camber – -2.50°

Rear Camber – -1.00°

Front Toe – 0.06°

Rear Camber – 0.20°

Geometry adjustments mainly impact grip and tire wear, however on F1 22, like its predecessor F1 2021, most circuits suit the same setup! Stick with high front values, and low rear values in this section for the best Abu Dhabi setup.

Suspension details for F1 22 Abu Dhabi Setup

Suspension Setup

Front Suspension – 9

Rear Suspension – 1

Front Anti-Roll Bar – 6

Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 1

Front Ride Height – 3

Rear Ride Height – 4

Suspension adjustments impact responsiveness and stability through corners. This is probably the most personal area of the Abu Dhabi setup, so if you are struggling with rotation then the anti-roll bars are where you should start. Ride height plays a much more important role in F1 22 than previous F1 games, so the keep the rear high to avoid the diffuser bottoming out at high speed. Floor damage can ruin performance, so a high ride height here should help protect those delicate aerodynamic surfaces. Here we have gone for a firm front to increase front responsiveness, with a softer rear for grip. Ride height is low so be cautious on the kerbs! 

Brakes Setup

Brake Pressure – 100%

Front Brake Bias – 52%

For players on controller, brake pressure setups can have minimal impact. If you use ABS, maintain 100% brake pressure. Otherwise, see above.

Abu Dhabi Tyres Setup

Front Right Tyre Pressure – 23.5 psi

Front Left Tyre Pressure – 23.5 psi

Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 22.2 psi

Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 22.2 psi

Tyre pressures can have a huge impact on wear and traction. Typically high rear pressures and lower front pressures are the way to go, however decreasing all pressures here will result in faster lap times. For Abu Dhabi’s longer sweeping corners, we have gone with middle pressures on all four corners. This will maximise the contact area of the tyre under load, giving the best mid corner grip possible. 

Abu dhabi Time Trial Setup

This is the fastest dry Abu Dhabi Setup for F1 22! This setup is not recommended for anything longer than a 5-lap race, as you will experience some high rates of tyre wear through the stint. We use this to top the time trial leaderboards and show off to our mates 😀

We will update this through the year as we find faster and faster options, so be sure to bookmark this page and come back in the future!

Aero Setup

Front Wing Setting – 22

Rear Wing Setting – 20

For this area of the Abu Dhabi setup, 22-20 wing angles have proved quickest. This gives the car good balance, but you will really need to nail the most optimal line to make it round quickly. 

Fastest aero settings for the f1 22 Abu Dhabi setup dry.

Transmission Setup

Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 60%

Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 50%

For the Abu Dhabi setup transmission adjustments, 60%/50% is best. This means the car will rotate faster, balancing with the low area settings to allow you to move quickly through slower-speed corners. If you are spinning out, the first thing you should do is increase these settings. 

Suspension Geometry Setup

Front Camber – -2.50°

Rear Camber – -1.00°

Front Toe – 0.05°

Rear Camber – 0.20°

Geometry adjustments mainly impact grip and tire wear, however on F1 22, like its predecessor F1 2021, most circuits suit the same setup! Stick with high front values, and low rear values in this section for the best Abu Dhabi setup. This section really can’t be improved in F1 22.

Suspension Setup

Front Suspension – 4

Rear Suspension – 3

Front Anti-Roll Bar – 3

Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 5

Front Ride Height – 4

Rear Ride Height – 4

For the absolute fastest Abu Dhabi setup, we have gone with an overall softer approach. It will definitely shred your tyres, so stick to 5-lap races or time trials with this. 

Brakes Setup

Brake Pressure: 100%

Front Brake Balance: 50%

For the quickest Abu Dhabi setup, you’ll want to push both of these settings to the max. We also recommend using ABS, this rarely has any effect on lap times in F1 22. 

Tyre Pressure

Front Right Tyre Pressure – 25.0psi

Front Left Tyre Pressure – 25.0psi

Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 23.0psi

Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 23.0psi

An extreme setup here for maximum speed. Very fast, but very hot! Don’t expect your tyres to last longer than a few laps with these settings.

Aerodynamics Setup

Front Wing Aero – 24

Rear Wing Aero – 28

For Imola and with the new aero settings, we are recommending 24-28 wing angle setup. This is low enough to keep the car fast down the straights, with just enough downforce to get us through the corners. Our initial impression is that the cars in F1 22 seem to perform better than 2021 with lower aero settings. If you are struggling with grip, try increasing both values, but be aware you may find it harder to overtake.

Transmission Setup

Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 65%

Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 59%

Transmission is a critical area of the setup for traction, affecting acceleration, grip, rotation, tyre wear, and drivability. Increasing the On Throttle Differential will make the car more stable on acceleration, however, will increase tyre wear. Here at Imola, we’ve went brave again and have had most success with a 65%/59% setup. This will aid rotation in lower speed corners and should help protect the tyres from excessive wear, however be cautious as one your tyres wear the car may be more likely to spin. If you don’t have masterful abilities without traction control, then try increasing the on throttle diff. This will improve straight-line stability and even acceleration on corner exits, however, will come with a slight cost on wear.

Suspension Geometry Setup

Front Camber – -2.50°

Rear Camber – -1.90°

Front Toe – 0.05°

Rear Camber – 0.20°

Suspension Geometry details for the F1 22 Imola Setup.

Geometry adjustments mainly impact grip and tire wear, however on F1 22, like F1 2021, most circuits suit the same setup! Stick with high front camber, and low everything else in this section for best results. We’ve knocked the rear camber up one notch from the lowest for Imola.

Suspension details for the F1 22 Imola Setup.

Suspension Setup

Front Suspension – 9

Rear Suspension – 2

Front Anti-Roll Bar – 9

Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 1

Front Ride Height – 2

Rear Ride Height – 5

Suspension adjustments impact responsiveness and stability through corners. This is probably the most important area of the Imola setup, so if you are struggling with rotation then the anti-roll bars are where you should start. Ride height plays a much more important role this year, so the keep the rear high to avoid the diffuser bottoming out at high speed. Floor damage can ruin performance, so a higher than usual ride height here should help protect those delicate aerodynamic surfaces.

Brakes Setup

Brake Pressure – 100%

Front Brake Bias – 50%

For players on controller, brake pressure adjustments can have minimal impact. If you use ABS, maintain 100% brake pressure. Otherwise, see above for the Imola brake setup.

Tyres Setup

Front Right Tyre Pressure – 23.7 psi

Front Left Tyre Pressure – 23.7 psi

Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 22.2 psi

Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 22.2 psi

Tyre pressures can have a huge impact on wear and traction. Typically high rear pressures and lower front pressures are the way to go, however increasing rear pressures here could result in faster lap times. You will pay in wear, but if you are finding this not to be an issue then increase to around 22.7psi. For the Imola setup we are running a relatively high pressure setup, you might want to reduce the pressures by one or two notches if you struggle with excessive wear. 

Imola Hotlap Setup

This is the fastest F1 22 Imola Setup available, and will ensure you rise to the top of the time trial leaderboards. F1 2022 is still new, so check back here in the future for faster and faster setups. Generally this setup will be quick over one lap, so it’s ideal for time trial, or even qualifying, but be aware it is not designed to be run over a race distance, so don’t expect your tyres to last very long!

Imola Suspension Setup

Front Wing Aero – 24

Rear Wing Aero – 28

For the best time trial setup for Imola in F1 22, we are actually recommending the same aero as our standard race setup. Despite a few tweaks, this seems to always result in the fastest times. 24 at the front, 28 at the rear.  

Imola Transmission Setup

On Throttle Diff – 60%

Off Throttle Diff – 54%

A differential setup here similar to the race setup, but we have reduced the on throttle differential adjustment to 60%, and the off throttle to 54%. This makes the car easier to rotate, meaning you can accelerate faster out of corners once the car is straight. It will be slightly more challenging to handle, but much quicker round the Imola track. 

Imola Suspension Geometry Setup

Front Camber – -2.50°

Rear Camber – -1.00°

Front Toe – 0.05°

Rear Camber – 0.20°

Suspension adjustments impact responsiveness and stability through corners. F1 2022 is similar to F1 2021, and this section pf the setup has a similar impact. Imola is like most circuits in terms of geometry setup, right-right-left-left. 

Imola Suspension Setup

Front Suspension – 9

Rear Suspension – 2

Front Anti-Roll Bar – 9

Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 1

 Front Ride Height – 3

Rear Ride Height – 5

The Imola suspension setup is a bit more extreme than the race settings. A very firm front, with a lot of give at the rear. This allows the rear of the car to take high cornering loads, but makes the front very skittish. Our advice here is to avoid riding over kerbs, and accelerate as early as possible on the way out of corners.

Imola Brakes Setup

Brake Pressure – 100%

Front Brake Bias – 50%

Maximum brake pressure here, but you can run ABS and not lose any time. 

Imola Tyre Pressure Setup

Front Right Tyre Pressure – 25.0psi

Front Left Tyre Pressure – 25.0psi

Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 23.0psi

Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 23.0psi

An extreme setup here for maximum speed at Imola. Very fast, but very hot! Don’t expect your tyres to last longer than a few laps with these settings.
