Zandvoort is the most fun you can have racing F1 cars on dunes. A mix of dramatic elevation changes and heavily banked corners make every lap a test for drivers.
You need a reliable car to take victory on the beach. Therefore a good F1 24 Netherlands setup is ideal, updated for the new handling patch.
Best F1 24 Netherlands Setup
Zandvoort is famous for its incredible banked corners, but there is more than just heavy banking in the Netherlands.
A long, sweeping climb up the dunes is then followed by a meandering descent, with a DRS zone thrown in for good measure.
Zandvoort's return to F1 was warmly welcomed back in 2021. The wind plays a big part in every race, with the North Sea breeze throwing off even the most stable machinery.
F1 24's handling was criticized by F1 Esports drivers and seasoned content creators upon release. The game has since been patched, with this setup best suited to the game post-patch.

Aerodynamics
Zandvoort requires a car that can stick to the track no matter what. This is especially the case through the heavily banked final corner, now part of the main DRS zone.
We recommend raising the wings to 50 on the front and 40 on the rear. This will push you into the track, stopping you from flying into the North Sea.
Transmission
F1 24 introduces a new engine braking option. This sets how much speed is scrubbed off when off the throttle and pushed back into the ERS battery pack.
This may change as we discover more about the setting, but right now a maximum 100% setting is the best option.
The differential dictates how differently the rear wheels can rotate when on and off the throttle.
The on-throttle and off-throttle should be set to 50%. This will provide extra turning potential in addition to the superior downforce.
Suspension Geometry
In previous years you would set camber all the way right and toe all the way left. This year, as things currently stand, that creates some difficulty in car balance.
As a result, we recommend -3.5 and -2.2 for the camber settings and 0.0 for both toe settings. This will help pull the car around the middle sector.
Suspension
Suspension is the most detailed section of your F1 24 setup and can be extremely personal to your driving style and skill level.
The dunes of Zandvoort need a 41 front suspension with a 6 rear suspension to keep the car stiff at the front but mobile towards the back.
Anti-roll bar sets how the car pitches during changes of direction. Zandvoort requires anti-roll bars of 12 on the front and 7 on the rear to flick the car through corners with more stability.
The Ride Height is used to generate the downforce that the wings don't provide. 20 on the front and 65 on the rear can be utilized as Zandvoort doesn't contain any troublesome curbs.
Brakes
Zandvoort has two major braking zones at the end of each DRS straight. Your Brake Pressure needs to be high at 95% to manage them.
It also helps if your braking bias is weighted more towards the front than usual. Setting the front to 55% provides the ideal balance.
Tyres
Maximizing the tyre pressures are the best option in F1 24. This will increase performance without sacrificing too much tyre life.
Setting 29.5 psi on the front and 26.5 psi on the rear is best when charging across the dunes.
