In most circumstances, we have chosen to set most of the values to low or medium. The situation enables you to achieve the maximum FPS possible on your system while still achieving a pretty realistic image quality.
Naturally, you may play about with these settings and as a result, you will be able to come up with a reasonable tradeoff between the quality of the image and the performance of your system.
We do however suggest that you do not set the particles, shadows and skidmarks to high or even medium as they can be quite detrimental to your system and impact quite a bit without contributing that much to the image overall.
Conclusion
These were the settings we have been suggesting for F1 2021.
We wish they enabled you to maximise your racing performance, and to enhance your track experience in a more realistic way!
