F1 23: How To Create The Perfect Setup: Step By Step Guide

[@tubularcandy812]

In Dutch we have a saying. Better steal something good rather than making something terrible yourself😜

[@rhysblythe]

That's good, I'm stealing that 😉

[@giuseppekakra2381]

I love that 😂😂😂😂😂

[@ArtyI]

Do you also have the saying 'better to cheat than to lose'?

[@hebro7172]

Hoe gaat die dan?

[@markeastman1262]

You say that the camber is wrong but if you add more negative camber it inceases. -2.5 + -1.25 =-3.75. Codemasters seem to have it right. What would really help is a graphic against each variable that shows the movement of the tyre/ height/ wing to clear it all up once and for all!

[@stephenosun745]

Your video on F1 23 car set ups is the best I have come across since the release of the game. Your explanation of each set up is easy for even a layman like me to easily understand. Well-done. I've subscribed to your channel and will follow on your further advice on how to extract the maximum potential from F1 23.

[@Mark-Icemarbo]

Nice one! Just started playing F1 2023. Need to learn a lot! One thing tho, before you begin messing with a setup, learn the track. Don't mess with the setup that much because your not consistent enough.(that what i always do/did with ACC)

[@WreckerofDays]

AWESOME video. Bookmarked for forever. Very well done! Nice work.

[@Anzynator]

By far the best setup guide video! Haven't seen anything near with all those details and explanations what every change will cause. Thanks a lot!

[@user-rh2cp3rv4o]

These videos have helped me out a lot. Made my car more competitive! 😊

[@WreckerofDays]

YES! THANK YOU! I can't wait to understand it all! You're the best!

[@jockeyjack3367]

I have to say I love what you do. I have made your setups as a base line for me and they are great. I love that I can go straight to a race with the setup. I do tweak them a bit to fit my style but the base you share make it so easy to get to that perfect per person setup.

[@AC-us6fq]

Your setupvideos helped me make the tranisition to no racing line and higher AI...Keep up the amazing work!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@kevinkourafas4485]

this is a great guide - two main questions: 1) each time you take 5 laps on a tire and change the set up, wouldnt you want to then go out on the same grade tire so as to have a 1 for 1 comparison? the softs might handle differently than the hards, etc. How do you ensure consistency for accurate results? 2) Also, do you suggest anything different for people that play MyTeam? when you go and test an "optimized" set up for a track in a grand prix weekend, is that translatable to your new car since you're using the same set up? or will MyTeam car handle completely differently than say a Ferrari, regardless of setup? thanks so much! these videos are great and you have a cadence similar to "How to with John Wilson", very pleasing

[@SimRacingSetups]

Yea. I'd recommend doing like for like tyres. You can quit the session and restart the weekend to reset the tyre allowance if you run out. Generally a MyTeam car will handle a touch different depending on the upgrades you have, but I always use these setups as a baseline, and only normally adjust them in minor areas such as the wings or tyre pressures for My Team.

[@CTSimRacing]

Great video, helped me understand the aero better. 1 thing I do disagree with you on is how camber min/max is set. As a mechanic myself when it comes to alignment angles min is always your most negative number and max is always you most positive number. Anyways great video, keep up the great work.

[@viniciusvieiracruz]

But even considering that min is always the most negative number like you said, it is still the max negative chamber angle, so that's why the wording is confusing, so when in the explanation it says "increase this part of the setup to the max to get some kind of result", it begs the question, max what? Max number which would be -2.50 the least negative value, or max chamber angle which would be -3.50 the most negative value

[@SimRacingSetups]

Completely understand what you're saying, and you're probably right from a technical / mechanical stand point which is probably why Codies have done it. It's just confusing because to me, max should represent the maximum lean angle. But hey ho, doesn't matter too much! :) Thanks for the comment.

[@CTSimRacing]

@@SimRacingSetups I know how you feel. Took me years to come around to this way of thinking

[@Michaelknight79]

What do u adjust to make the front wheels to lean in and have a little turn in

[@SupaMan2122]

Does it work for controller too?

[@SimRacingSetups]

Yea

[@tonesnaps]

this is amazing knowledge thank you.

[@fiscalpt9575]

Got confused on the camber. When you say increase is to the minimum or the maximum?

[@GeorgeMcCauley]

Is always the suspension and anti roll bars that confuse me when it comes to the setup, always seem to run with more wing than I need to in the race and get killed by the AI in my team

[@GarageRecordings]

Very useful, thank you. 😊 That camera angle is messing with my head though. 😅

[@jorgee.llorens]

Thank u so much :)

[@Michaelknight79]

If you adjust the downforce so u need to adjust the ride hight

[@LINKRETROGAMING]

Wow! Those new F1 games have no set up options... I am playing F1 challenge 99-02 and I had to do a 20 page tutorial for myself to be able to set up the car, how is it possible they sell games making them more limited than a 20 years game?

[@ringofart]

What a game this was I've still got it somewhere just don't have a pc might go and get 1 tomorrow awesome game good to see all the old drivers I've also got all the Geoff Cramond grad prix games loved watching Ayrton Senna I think you used to have to type all the driver names in manually as they where copyrighted

[@legoowen4346]

So, hello first of all, can i use your setups as a baseline or should i use the deffault setups? As a baseline...

[@Theworstchannelposting]

You would think by now one racing game would have a acutal dedicated customizable track practices.

[@WreckerofDays]

Question: In the temperature tab of the MFD, which temp. should do I look at to determine proper tire temp.? The top temp. or the middle temp.? I assume the bottom temp. is the brakes, but I don't know which of the other two readings is the information that I need for changing my tire pressure.

[@n0body550]

The top one is tyres, the middle one is the carcass (inside) and the bottom is brakes

[@WreckerofDays]

@@n0body550 Thank you!

[@n0body550]

@@WreckerofDays No problem, had to double check just to make sure 😂

[@fiscalpt9575]

How can I solve those problems where the car balance changes when I get dirty air?

[@mileymarielow3850]

Hi,I'm not sure how to set up getting a practise gear box so I don't ruin the race one,do I change it in car set up during practise? Thank you

[@20edney]

4:21 Regarding the brake bias which you say to always change to 55% to begin with - does this make any difference if I have the anti-lock brakes setting on? As in would it be any different if I have 50% instead?

[@lewismann3]

Good question. Hope he sees this

[@tamesuperjazz2803]

I don’t run abs anymore but I’d assume it does as it affects your tyre wear. If your brake bias is more forwards then the front tyres will wear faster than the rears and that obviously plays into your race management and how the car handles. That being said, unfortunately I’m no expert and would love to know more myself

[@SimRacingSetups]

People say you can run 50% bias with ABS turned on. I haven't tried it enough to confirm.

[@Rickybobby64209]

A forward brake bias will cause the car to lunge forward more under braking which moves the center of momentum of the car forward and loads up front tires. If you've ever tried stopping with just the front brakes on a bicycle with poor rear brakes, you've felt that lunge and consequent forward momentum shift. The lunge forward shifts the weight of the car forward and into the front tires, which creates more mechanical grip momentarily and allows you to carry more speed during the corner entry phase, especially if the braking zone prior to the corner is considered a heavy one (more lunge, more force, more grip) A couple examples where adjusting your brake bias forward can be useful are at Bahrain's Turn 1 and Turn 3 at the RBR. If you have a wheel that has knobs/buttons, you can bind them to the Brake Bias Increase & Brake Bias Decrease functions so you can easily change your bias setting on the fly during a race without having to navigate the on-screen MFD. Having the capability to quickly make the right adjustments at the right parts of the track can help shave off a couple of tenths at most tracks and maybe close to a full second at circuits featuring lots of heavy braking zones into slow speed corners such as Bahrain & Azerbaijan.

[@arturolayungonzalez5449]

It is what I am looking for, unfortunately I do not understand my English is very bad, I need a translator into Spanish 😢😢😢

[@regmyster7626]

So do you recommend slightly altering your car setups to suit ur driving style?

[@abwk6537]

definitely, but these r a great baseline

[@SimRacingSetups]

Absolutely! The setups I create are optimised car setups which should make you faster but one setup won’t suit everybody. I’d definitely recommend tweaking them to suit your own style. Some might not need any tweaking, while some might 👍🏻

[@danialfischer2479]

Where can I find this? I can’t even reach this part somehow. Please I am getting frustrated searching

[@DeJaBarclay]

did you find it? I can't find car setup in the settings.

[@Marcoo2010]

Who does drive with that cam!😂

[@titeufane]

Really great videos 👍🏼. Too bad there is no French translation .

[@lxrdbxgdan231]

Wet setups?

[@michaeljoefox]

Anyone else having issues with braking on a fully upgraded car?

[@ianwashington7751]

Why are my temperatures showing around or over 200? 😮

[@Kqto]

Video looks really interesting, but I can't fully understand what you're saying!

[@ndi5670]

Biggest take away from this should be, change one thing at a time. IMHO.

[@SV-ee5lp]

Thats wrong. Grand Prix mode gives you better grip. So better go on a online session and do a practice session. Its much better....
