Spa is the definition of the perfect racing track. Its twisty nature combined with one of the longest straights on the calendar challenge even the best F1 teams and drivers.
The track can punish those who lose concentration in the key moments. Therefore you need a good F1 24 Belgium setup, updated for the new handling patch.
Best F1 24 Belgium Setup
Spa on its own is a highlights reel of optimum Formula 1 racing. It has the largest elevation change on the calendar, one of the longest straights prime for overtaking, and of course some amazing corners including the almighty Raidillon and Eau Rouge.
There's also the heavy braking zone at the Bus Stop Chicane to keep racers on their toes right to the start/finish line. This means you need a varied mix when it comes to the best setup.
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
Belgium is one of the few circuits that prioritizes straight-line speed over cornering downforce.
Therefore you can afford to go with 15 on the front wing and 1 on the rear wing to keep the car slippery up the climb to the Kemmel Straight and through the final sector.
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 55%, and the off-throttle should be set to 25%. This will provide a turning force compensating for the reduced 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 have gone with -3.5 and -2.2 for the camber settings and 0.0 for both toe settings. This will help pull the car around the quicker corners.
Suspension
Suspension is the most detailed section of your F1 24 setup and can be extremely personal to your driving style and skill level.
Belgium's rapid transitions mean a 41 front suspension with a 10 rear suspension is ideal.
Anti-roll bar sets how the car pitches during changes of direction. Belgium benefits from a car that can roll, so anti-roll bars of 6 on the front and 8 on the rear will give the flexibility required.
The Ride Height is used to generate the downforce that the wings don't provide. 20 on the front and 40 on the rear is best as there are no curbs to avoid and the car needs to be kept as low as possible.
Brakes
Belgium's heaviest braking zone comes right at the end of the lap. 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 is best to keep the car responsive through the quick transitions.
