Monaco F1 2022 Setup Fastest Race Hotlap Qualifying F1 22 Guide

F1 22 Monaco Setup: Full race setup, qualifying setup, drivability setup

F1 22 Monaco Setup: The Monaco Grand Prix is one of the most prestigious racing events in the world, renowned for its challenging track and stunning setting. The race is held every year at Circuit de Monaco, a 2.1-mile road course that weaves through the streets and squares of Monte Carlo, Monaco. Because the course features a large number of high-speed corners and no long straightaways, the Monaco Grand Prix requires a highly specialized setup from cars and drivers alike. In order to succeed on this tight, twisty circuit, drivers must have precise control over their vehicles, and cars must be optimized to provide maximum grip on both dry pavement and wet asphalt. Additionally, Monaco also features some of the narrowest roads in Formula 1 racing, requiring drivers to navigate shadows and guardrails carefully as they navigate each turn. Despite these challenges, however, racing teams continue to vie for victory at Monaco year after year due to its historical significance within motorsport and unparalleled beauty. Indeed, the Monaco Grand Prix truly captures the essence of what makes Formula 1 great: speed, skill, precision, and competitive spirit.

Aerodynamics

Front Wing Aero – 50

Rear Wing Aero – 50

With the new aero settings, we are recommending very high 50-50 wing angles here. We found this is simply the easiest way to approach this circuit. Overtaking will be challenging, and if you are really struggling you may find reducing the rear wing will help with top speed. 

Transmission

Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 75%

Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 54%

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 Monaco we will use 75%/54%. 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°

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.

Suspension

Front Suspension – 1

Rear Suspension – 3

Front Anti-Roll Bar – 1

Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 2

Front Ride Height – 4

Rear Ride Height – 7

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 – 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.

Tyres

Front Right Tyre Pressure – 23.0 psi

Front Left Tyre Pressure – 23.0 psi

Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 21.5 psi

Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 21.5 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 all pressures here will result in faster lap times. You will pay in wear wear, but if you are finding this not to be an issue then increase to around 24psi.
