For the front right, which takes the most punishment at Abu Dhabi, go for 22.6psi to help keep temperatures under control. Photo credit: Codemasters / EAįinally, you have your tyre pressures to sort out.

For your brake bias, a slightly rearward emphasis with a 54% setting helps to avoid front locking into turns seven and eight in particular. However, feel free to drop this down a few percent if you are struggling with lockups. For your brake pressure, it’s always a good idea to go with 100% if you can handle it, as this gives you the best possible braking performance. Things get a little simpler from here on out. If you do still find yourself spinning on the kerbs a lot with these settings, try raising the ride height even more.

Similarly, fairly soft anti-roll bar settings of 6-1 are enough to prevent the car from really wallowing around the corners without making it too skittish. Due to all of the lethal kerbs at Abu Dhabi, going as low as 1-1 on the suspension stiffness settings really is viable and moreover useful. Then onto the suspension itself, and soft is certainly the name of the game here. 0.06 on the fronts and 0.32 on the rears gives you a nice and manageable car. The front and rear toe settings aren’t massively influential here, but they can give you an extra boost when it comes to stability. 2.00 gives you the grip you need and your tyres can handle it without much trouble. As for the rears, there is less of a problem.

2.60 works well, but any more camber than that and you’ll have some issues with front tyre wear.

As for the off-throttle differential setting, 60% does the trick. The rear tyre wear you get from this setting isn’t too significant either, so that’s a bonus. At Abu Dhabi, you can afford to run 100% for your on-throttle differential, giving you maximum potential traction without making it too difficult to put the power down. Next up is the transmission, which again is a little different to what you may be used to seeing.

Wing settings of 7-8 for your front and rear wings respectively give you the grip you need in sectors one and three, without losing you a whole load of time down the long straights of sector two. However, for Abu Dhabi in F1 2021, that has changed somewhat. In previous renditions of the F1 games, it tended to be a good idea to run a much thicker rear wing than front wing at almost every circuit, as this was beneficial for your traction. Bear in mind, this setup is designed for races, not for time trial, and as such there is an emphasis on drivability and tyre management.įor more F1 2021 setup guides, take a look at our setup hub. Nevertheless, the way setups feel in game did shift a little due to the new handling model in F1 2021, and as such it’s necessary to update your car’s settings if you really want to get the most out of the Yas Marina circuit. As such, there’s not been a huge change in the ideal setup when compared to F1 2020. Unlike in this season of real-world Formula 1, Abu Dhabi in F1 2021 is still in much the same form as it has been since its addition to the F1 calendar back in 2009. With the F1 title going down to the wire in Abu Dhabi this weekend, we thought we would help those of you trying out the circuit by giving you this Abu Dhabi setup guide.
