Race Setup
Baku is one of the newer circuits on the calendar, and the street circuit has given us some dramatic races over the years. 2021 saw Max crash on the start/finish straight in dramatic fashion after a tyre failure. Hamilton looked sure to make up some solid points after the red flag restart, but messed up with his brake magic settings and ploughed straight off the circuit in turn one. Sergio Perez went on to seal his maiden F1 victory!

Aerodynamics
Front Wing Aero – 3
Rear Wing Aero – 5
With its long straights, we are recommending 3-5 wing angles here. We found this kept the car fast down the straights, with just enough downforce to get us through the corners. Be careful about going any higher than these values as you will find it hard to overtake.
Transmission
Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 70%
Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 55%
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 in Baku we will use 70%/55%. This will aid rotation in lower speed corners and should help protect the tyres from excessive wear. Increasing rear diff will improve straight-line acceleration and stability on corner exits, however, will come with a slight cost on wear.
Suspension Geometry
Front Camber – -2.50°
Rear Camber – -2.00°
Front Toe – 0.06°
Rear Camber – 0.20°
Geometry adjustments mainly impact grip and tire wear, however on F1 2021 most circuits suit the same settings! Stick with high front camber, and low everything else in this section for best results.
Suspension
Front Suspension – 2
Rear Suspension – 6
Front Anti-Roll Bar – 2
Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 6
Front Ride Height – 3
Rear Ride Height – 6
Suspension adjustments impact responsiveness and stability through corners. This is probably the most important area of the 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
Brake Pressure – 93%
Front Brake Bias – 58%
For players on controller, brake pressure adjustments can have minimal impact. If you use ABS, maintain 100% brake pressure. Otherwise, see above.
Tyres
Front Right Tyre Pressure – 21.4 psi
Front Left Tyre Pressure – 21.4 psi
Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 22.7 psi
Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 22.7 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 front pressures here will result in faster lap times. You will pay in front wear, but if you are finding this not to be an issue then increase to around 22.6psi.
Hotlap Setup
This setup is currently the fastest one lap setup we can recommend. bookmark the page and check back as we will be tweaking it regularly as we find extra tenths. Drivability may be compromised in this setup but it is damn quick! Running a race distance on this setup will result in some fairly extreme tyre wear.

Aerodynamics
Front Wing Aero – 6
Rear Wing Aero – 8
A higher front and rear wing angle here, meaning maintaining a high corner speed is critical to keep the lap times down.
Transmission
Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 82%
Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 56%
High on throttle differential here for acceleration out of corner. This will allow you to be aggressive on the accelerator while the car stays stable and planted. Low off throttle diff will help with the chicane, keep off the gas mid-corner to get the car rotated faster!
Suspension Geometry
Front Camber – -2.80°
Rear Camber – -1.00°
Front Toe – 0.07°
Rear Toe – 0.20°
Standard suspension geometry for this one, with slightly lower front camber.
Suspension
Front Suspension – 1
Rear Suspension – 5
Front Anti-Roll Bar – 3
Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 9
Front Ride Height – 2
Rear Ride Height – 7
A radically different set up to the race setup, very good for a one lap time, however be aware tyre life will be reduced with these settings.
Brakes
Brake Pressure – 100%
Brake Bias – 56%
A WR setup just slightly different from our recommended race setup… See, told ya it was good!
Tyre Pressure
Front Right – 25.0psi
Front Left – 25.0psi
Rear Right – 25.0psi
Rear Left – 25.0psi
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.

F1 22 Canada Setup: Full race setup, qualifying setup, drivability setup
Welcome to our Canada Setup page for F1 22!
Canada has been hosting Formula One races since 1961, making it one of the longest running events on the Grand Prix calendar. The Canadian Grand Prix is held at the Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, named after the late Canadian Formula One driver. The circuit is located on Notre Dame Island in Montreal and is composed of public roads that are closed off for the race. Canada’s grand prix is typically held in early June, making it one of the first races of the European season. Canada is one of only three countries to have hosted a Formula One race in every decade since the sport’s inception, along with Britain and Monaco. The Canadian Grand Prix has been won by some of the sport’s most legendary drivers, including Jackie Stewart, Alain Prost, Michael Schumacher, and Lewis Hamilton. Thanks to its long history and its place on the racing calendar, the Canadian Grand Prix is considered to be one of the most important races of the year.

Race Setup
Canada has returned to the F1 calendar in 2022! Circuit Gilles Villeneuve has been home to the Canadian Grand Prix since 1978, and has some of the most iconic sections in the calendar. The track begins with the Senna ‘S’, and finishes with a chicane exiting next to the famous Wall of Champions. The fasted ever lap recorded here was set by Sebastian Vettel in 2019, a 1:10.240. He set this lap in Q3 for the 2019 Canadian Grand Prix, so unfortunately doesn’t hold the official lap record (qualifying laps don’t count).

Canada Aerodynamics Setup
Front Wing Aero – 18
Rear Wing Aero – 28
With the new aero settings, we are recommending 18-28 wing angles here. We found this kept the car fast down the straights, with just enough downforce to get us through the corners. If you are struggling with grip, try increasing the front wing, but be aware you may find it harder to overtake.

Geometry adjustments mainly impact grip and tire wear, however on F1 22, like its predecessor, most circuits suit the same settings! Stick with high front values, and low rear values in this section for best results in the Canada Setup.
Suspension Setup
Front Suspension – 3
Rear Suspension – 4
Front Anti-Roll Bar – 1
Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 2
Front Ride Height – 4

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 front pressures here could result in faster lap times. You will pay in front wear, but if you are finding this not to be an issue then increase to around 24.5psi.
