F1 22 Austria Setup: Race setup, fastest time trial setup, best austria career setup 2022

Welcome to our F1 22 Austria Setup page! Austria is one of the most important tracks on the F1 22 calendar. The Red Bull ring is a fast and flowing circuit, making it a favorite among drivers and fans alike. With that in mind, Austria is always a hotly contested Grand Prix, and the team that can find the right setup will be in a strong position to take victory. So, what’s the fastest Austria setup for F1 22? The answer may surprise you. While many teams focus on aerodynamic efficiency, Austria is a track where power matters more than anything else. As a result, the fastest Austria setup features a high-downforce configuration combined with as much straight line speed as possible. Find the right balance, and you’ll be in contention for a podium finish. Miss the mark, and you’ll be struggling to make up ground.

Austria Race Setup

The Red Bull Ring in Austria is the shortest lap of any on the current calendar and hosted two races in 2020 and 2021. With track limits being a contentious issue in the 2022 Grand Prix, be careful not to stray over the white lines… particularly on the exit of the final corner!

Aerodynamics

Front Wing Aero – 18

Rear Wing Aero – 13

With the new aero settings, we are recommending a 18-13 wing setup for Austria. 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 rear wing, but be aware you may find it harder to overtake.

Transmission

Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 65%

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 Austria we will use a 65%/55% setup. 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 – -1.00°

Front Toe – 0.05°

Rear Camber – 0.20°

Suspension Geometry details for the F1 22 Austria Setup.

Geometry adjustments mainly impact grip and tire wear, however on F1 22, like F1 2021, most circuits suit the same settings! Stick with high front values, and low rear values in this section for best results for this part of the Austria setup. 

Suspension details for the F1 22 Austria Setup.

Suspension

Front Suspension – 7

Rear Suspension – 1

Front Anti-Roll Bar – 7

Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 1

Front Ride Height – 8

Rear Ride Height – 5

Suspension adjustments impact responsiveness and stability through corners. This is probably the most important area of the Austria 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 – 95%

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.

Brake details for the F1 22 Austria Setup.
Tyre details for the F1 22 Austria Setup.

Tyres

Front Right Tyre Pressure – 23.0 psi

Front Left Tyre Pressure – 23.0 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. For the recommended Austria Setup 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 24psi.

  1. Guten Tag,
    Ich wollte nur darauf hinweisen bzw fragen was sie bei front rodeheight mit 8 meinen denn solch eine iäoption gibt es bei mir nicht, genausowenig wie hintere höhe von 5. An sich finde ich eure website die beste um setups fürs rennen zu holen und würde mich freuen wenn sie mir informationen demensprechend zukommen lassen.
    Mit freubdlichen Grüßen marcel weiss
