Putting in less aero will result in more top speed but this comes at a cost of having no grip which could lead to both understeer and oversteer. However, this drag equates to a reduced top speed, higher tire temperatures, and higher tire wear as increased aero makes your car effectively heavier at speed.


In general, putting more aero in either setting will result in more grip through corners and a shorter braking distance due to the drag it brings. Here you will be able to adjust the Front Wing Aero as well as the Rear Wing Aero. The Aerodynamics settings is one of the more fundamental settings you can tinker with in F1 22 as it is a core component of the car. One setting will affect all other settings, so keep that in mind when making tweaks to your setup. You will find that wet conditions will need a rather different setup compared to dry conditions as you will be needing a lot more grip and stability than outright responsiveness and speed.įinally, remember to treat each individual setup setting with care as you will want to think of the setups as a unit instead of an individual. It is also good practice to have at least 2 setups for each track: 1 for dry conditions, and 1 for wet conditions. Just be reminded that each track will have its own Custom Setup, so say you created a Custom Setup for Spa, this setup will not affect any other track in the track roster. Here you will find the full setup options that you can tinker with in order to get the absolute best out of your car. The left-most option of the setup screen is the Custom Setup option which is the option that we will want to be choosing if we want to customize the setup of the car ourselves. Hence in this guide, we will be focusing on how to make a Custom Setup, which will be talked about in the sections below.

Mostly, these preset setups only tinker with the downforce or aerodynamics of the car without further adjustment to its suspension and tire pressures, making them a bit too simplistic for what we would want. Found to the right of the Custom Setup option in the setup screen, these setups are very basic when it comes to what they adjust. An easy way to set up your car is through the Preset Setups.
