Alright, folks, let’s talk about my latest adventure in F1 23. I’ve been messing around with the Monza circuit, trying to nail down a decent setup. It’s a tricky one, that’s for sure.
I started by looking at what other people were doing. “Depending on your car,” they said. Yeah, no kidding. I also saw something about the “fastest race setups.” That got my attention. Apparently, “finding the right setup can help you go faster, manage your tires better.” Well, duh, that’s the whole point, isn’t it?
So, I dug a little deeper. I found this guide that claimed to have the “best F1 23 Monza setup for a race victory in Italy.” It even had tips for tire pressure and brakes. I figured, why not give it a shot?
First up, the suspension. They recommended a front camber of -3.2 and a rear camber of -1.70. For the toe, they suggested 0 for the front and 0.15 for the rear. Seemed a bit technical, but I went with it. They also talked about the suspension settings themselves. Apparently, there are six options, and they suggested cranking the front suspension up to 41. They said it “maintains the grip at the front of the car” and “works fine across a range of tracks.” Okay, sure, I’ll take their word for it.
- Suspension:
- Front Camber: -3.2
- Rear Camber: -1.70
- Front Toe Out: 0
- Rear Toe In: 0.15
- Front Suspension: 41
Then came the brakes. The guide emphasized the importance of “proper braking technique,” especially for those tight chicanes at Monza. They said to “brake in a straight line, modulating pressure to avoid lock-ups.” Sounds easy enough, right? As for the brake bias, they suggested around 55%. But they also said it could vary between 53% and 58% depending on the track. And if you’re using ABS, you can apparently lower it even more, to around 50%.
- Brakes:
- Brake Bias: 55% (or 53-58% depending on the track, or around 50% with ABS)
I spent hours tweaking and testing, and you know what? It actually made a difference. I was definitely going faster, and my tires seemed to be holding up better. I even managed to snag a few podium finishes, which is always a good feeling.
So, there you have it. That’s my experience with trying to find a decent setup for Monza in F1 23. It wasn’t easy, but it was definitely worth the effort. I’m still not sure if it’s the “best” setup, but it worked for me. Give it a try and see how it goes. And remember, these are just guidelines. Feel free to experiment and find what works best for your driving style.
And as a friendly reminder from this old-timer, remember to have fun with it. It’s just a game, after all. Until next time, keep those virtual tires on the track and those virtual engines roaring!
