F1 2021 generic settings

Make sure the ERS Overtake mode is set to “Hold” as that will result much easier to manage your energy during the race and especially during the overtaking maneuvers.

If you set it to Hold it will mean that you can keep the button fully pressed to use the extra power for as long as you need.

Controller Calibration Settings

In order to change your controller calibration settings, head over to “Calibration” and configure the following settings below.

For some drivers, heavy amounts of Force Feedback can prove difficult with controllers so you can lower it down to 70 or 50 in case you needed less FFB response.

Can you use a controller on F1 2021?

Of course you can use a controller in F1 2021, but be aware that it won’t be as easy and realistic to drive as with a proper racing wheel. That’s because the FFB you get from a controller is very limited compared to a Fanatec or Thrustmaster racing wheel.

Is F1 2021 hard on controller?

It’s usually relatively hard to drive and win online races with a controller, but it can get much easier with proper controller calibration and FFB settings. Consider reading our detailed controller settings guide for that.

Conclusion

So here were all the most realistic and advanced controller settings for Formula 1 2021.

Remember to experiment and see what works best for you, as all drivers are different.

We hope that this guide will help you get the most out of your experience!
