Netherlands Setup F1 22
F1 22 Netherlands Setup: Full race setup, qualifying setup, drivability setup
Netherlands Setup: The Netherlands Grand Prix is a major motor racing event held every year at the Zandvoort Circuit in Netherlands. This popular race draws competitors and spectators from all over the world and has been regarded as one of the most challenging tracks in the entire racing circuit. With its combination of high-speed straights and tight, technical turns, the Netherlands Circuit requires drivers to have full control and precision in order to achieve fast times. In addition, this race is also known for its unpredictable weather conditions, which can greatly affect driving speeds and safety on the track. Despite these challenges, however, the Netherlands Grand Prix remains one of the most exciting races of the season and an event that is eagerly anticipated each year by fans around the world.

Race Setup
‘Really quick’, ‘pretty insane’, ‘crazy’ and ‘old-school’ were words used by the current crop of F1 drivers when asked to describe the Zandvoort track that many of them tackled in their junior category days. We’d also add ‘undulating’ to that list. The Zandvoort track swoops and flows through the sand dunes, creating a rollercoaster-like feel to the lap. And while the circuit was modernised in time for F1’s most recent return – including increasing the banking angle at the famous Tarzan corner to an Indianapolis Motor Speedway-trumping 18 degrees – Zandvoort remains a proper, challenging drivers’ track.

Aerodynamics
Front Wing Aero – 38
Rear Wing Aero – 33
With the new aero settings, we are recommending 33-38 wing angles here. A high wing angle here allows you to carry more speed through the corners, and with it’s long banked corners, carrying speed through onto the straights is crucial for a fast lap here.
Transmission
Differential Adjustment On Throttle – 65%
Differential Adjustment Off Throttle – 60%
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 Zandvoort we will use 65%/60%. This will aid rotation in lower speed corners and also allow rotation while accelerating, as both are necessary at this circuit. 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 – 11
Front Anti-Roll Bar – 10
Rear Anti-Roll Bar – 1
Front Ride Height – 6
Rear Ride Height – 3
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 – 23.7 psi
Front Left Tyre Pressure – 23.7 psi
Rear Right Tyre Pressure – 22.0 psi
Rear Left Tyre Pressure – 22.0 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 front wear, but if you are finding this not to be an issue then increase upto 24.5psi.
