F1 24 Austria Setup (Updated For New Handling Patch)

The Red Bull Ring is as fun as it is challenging to drive. Blasting around the Styrian mountains is the perfect way to spend a Sunday afternoon, whipping up the amazing Austrian crowd.

The mix of long straights and sweeping corners makes for an interesting dynamic when it comes to downforce versus drag reduction. This then demands a good F1 24 Austria setup to keep up, updated for the new handling patch.

Best F1 24 Austria Setup

The Red Bull Ring is arguably the most enjoyable track to drive in F1. Its combination of extensive DRS zones and fast corners make every lap a breeze.

Despite it being fun, the track can still be demanding. The heavy braking zone at the top of the climb can catch out even the best drivers, while the downhill descent is lined with gravel traps waiting to snatch a car going wide.

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

Austria is mostly about speed, but you still need downforce for the elevation changes and tricky corners.

A 40 front wing and 25 rear wing will keep you planted, especially around the challenging Turn 3.

Transmission

Transmission settings have a new option in F1 24, along with 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 should be set to 30%, and the off-throttle should be set to 20%. This will power the car through the corners, especially the quick final complex.

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 have gone with -3.5 and -2.2 for the camber settings and 0.0 for both toe settings. This keeps the car navigate the infamous hairpin.

Suspension

Suspension is the most detailed section of your F1 24 setup and can be extremely personal to your driving style and skill level.

Austria demands a stiffer 40 front suspension and a looser 15 rear suspension to keep the car manageable through the transitions.

Anti-roll bar sets how the car pitches during changes of direction. Austria can be kept soft, with the anti-roll bars set to 1 on the front and 1 on the back.

The Ride Height can be kept low thanks to the lack of raised curbs. 30 on the front and 60 on the rear will help generate extra downforce through the ground effect.

Brakes

Turn 3 in Austria is one of the hardest braking zones in Formula 1. For this, your Brake Pressure needs to be high at 95%.

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 will help manage the pressure in the mountains.
