Are you trying to figure out the fastest car setup for the Hockenheim circuit in F1 2018?
We have something for everyone, from a novice to a seasoned sim driver. This article aims to inform the reader about the complete car setup for the German GP in F1 2018.
There’s also a hotlap onboard video, which is handy to see how it was done.
However, before we begin, there are a number of factors to bear in mind for the configuration of the F1 car for the German GP.
The two most crucial settings that have to be dialled in are anti-roll bars and aerodynamics settings, in addition to cambers and tyre pressures since front mechanical grip as well as the amount of downforce they create need to be optimized.
This is critically important for all those slow-speed hairpins and quick turns that are quite common around this circuit.
In this quick guide, we will present our Hockenheim F1 setup and its specialized applications while discussing the features, tips, and tricks to help you maximize your car’s potential.
